Job Description

Foodom is a dynamic platform revolutionizing the way private chefs and cooks connect with families seeking delicious, home-cooked meals. Operating as a mobile and private food business hub, Foodom empowers culinary professionals to share their passion and expertise directly with clients, all while removing the logistical burdens such as customer acquisition, menu creation, shopping, delivery, and customer service. Established as an innovative player in the food service industry, Foodom serves the Campbell, California area and beyond, offering chefs an opportunity to grow their own businesses flexibly and independently as 1099 contractors.

This platform caters to experienced culinary professionals—from line cooks and sous chefs to head chefs—looking to leverage their skills in a flexible, client-focused setting without the constraints of traditional restaurant or salaried positions. Foodom chefs enjoy setting their own schedules, making this role an ideal primary or supplementary income source. Typically, chefs earn between $100 and $300 per meal prep appointment, along with potential tips, depending on their availability and client base.

The role is primarily hands-on, involving cooking directly in clients' homes, preparing dishes featured on Foodom’s website, and catering to individual preferences and dietary restrictions. Chefs are expected to maintain professionalism, foster strong client relationships, and provide memorable dining experiences. Importantly, this is not a management or live-in position, but rather a mobile, independent chef role that offers both autonomy and the support of a steady platform to grow one’s food business. By joining the Foodom community, chefs can enjoy a rewarding career that combines culinary passion with the freedom of a flexible schedule, all backed by technology that simplifies the business side of private cooking.
