Food Hacking Start Up needs a Marketing & Community Engagement Intern

Tinker Kitchen is a makerspace for food hackers to learn and experiment with cooking. We are a teaching and community kitchen where “food hackers” can explore the art of making amazing food, learn the science of cooking, and try out cutting-edge cooking techniques and tools generally only available for commercial or artisanal use.

Since its founding in early 2015, over 100 people have participated in Tinker Kitchen’s cooking workshops, corporate events, meetups, and cooking labs. Tinker Kitchen is currently expanding its operations to open its first dedicated commercial space in the SF Peninsula.
