Madrid, España Oatly AB A tiempo completo

Hello potential future Oatly employee. It’s us, the original oatmilk company that started in Sweden back 25 or so years ago and has since expanded to the U.S. where we’ve continued growing at a rate such that we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oatmilk flowing.

Sustainability, health, and transparency are the core values that guide everything we do. Basically, we exist to make it easy for people to eat better and live healthier lives without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process. If any of this resonates with you, then maybe you’d like work for Oatly, too. Now onto the formal stuff.

We are looking for a Food Scientist to join our team. This role will be responsible for supporting the commercialization and optimization efforts of our existing oat product portfolio. 

In this role, you will collaborate and partner with internal and external teams to globally scale and optimize processes to produce high-quality, safe, and delicious oat products. The role will report to one of the Senior Product Development Engineers.

  • Align key stakeholders and identify potential challenges and interdependencies impacting projects and platforms
  • May support new product development initiatives as needed
  • Comfortable traveling around 50% of the time

Here are the things we think you need:

  • BS with 3+ years or MS with 2+ years of relevant work experience in Food Science or related field
  • 2+ years of experience in food science product development to scale-up in the manufacturing environment is required
  • Experience in dairy /or dairy alternative product processing is a plus
  • Proactive, willing to be highly engaged and hands-on

  • Naturally curious with a constant pursuit to create improvements
  • Must be able to lift up to 40 lbs
  • Must be able to stand or walk up to 80% of the time
  • Must have a valid driver’s license

And here’s another list of qualities we think make a good Oatly team member:

  • You feel connected to our mission of encouraging health, sustainability, and transparency
  • You are a self-starter who doesn’t need direct supervision to motivate you for success – we believe strongly in building a culture of individual accountability and ownership and need partners that can embrace that mentality
  • You are ready to make your mark in a smaller, growing brand leveraging your experience to deliver amazing results and build an outstanding company
  • You have an entrepreneurial spirit in that you’re comfortable with ambiguity and are energized by the process of building something lasting from the ground up
  • You enjoy sharing your quirkiness and talents with your coworkers

Another bulleted list felt redundant, so we wrote this long sentence with all the ways we sweeten the deal to work with us, like providing flexible vacation for starters, really great benefits, genuinely great coworkers who want to see the company and each other succeed, and a start-up vibe with an established company history.

The salary for this role will be based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to geographic location, internal equity, experience, education, specialty, and training. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific location. Compensation may also include bonus, commission, or equity as applicable. Our good faith estimate for base salary is $110,000.

Our team is available to support you through the hiring process with reasonable accommodations to enable a barrier-free interview experience.
