What We’re Building

Food systems account for nearly one-third of global emissions. The IPCC and leading climate scientists have identified shifting to sustainable diets as one of the most effective ways to mitigate climate change. Recipe Empire is an early-stage platform designed to make that shift easier and community-driven—starting with a space for plant-forward, culturally diverse, and climate-friendly recipes and knowledge.

We’ve started development, but we need a strong project lead to keep the moving parts aligned.

• Track project progress and remove bottlenecks
• Define clear milestones and sprints for an early-stage, lean team

• Help shape the roadmap for both MVP and future phases
• Keep us focused on what matters without over-complicating

Who You Are

• Experienced in project management or product management
• Familiar with technical teams, software development cycles, and MVP thinking
• Skilled in coordinating small, remote, volunteer-based teams
• Comfortable with ambiguity and early-stage product development
• Organized, proactive, and clear in your communication
• Bonus : Interested in food systems, sustainability, or social impact tech

Why Volunteer With Us

• Help build a climate-aligned platform from the ground up
• Play a key leadership role in shaping the product
• Gain experience managing an early-stage, distributed technical team
• Flexible, remote contribution—no rigid time commitment
• Make a real impact on climate action, sustainability, and community contribution
