The company leverages innovative technology and a network of independent contractors to make shopping more convenient, faster, and accessible for everyone. Instacart is dedicated to supporting its shoppers while providing broad flexibility and earning opportunities that fit diverse lifestyles and schedules.
The role of a Full-Service Shopper at Instacart is a dynamic and flexible opportunity ideal for candidates seeking an entry-level position with adaptable hours.

This job is well-suited for those who like being on the move, helping customers, and making a tangible difference by ensuring people have access to the food and products they need.
Additionally, Instacart values diversity and is committed to providing equal opportunities for all independent contractors. The company considers candidates without regard to gender, sexual orientation, race, veteran status, disability, or any other legally protected categories. For individuals seeking opportunities in certain regions such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, Instacart follows local Fair Chance ordinances to provide qualified candidates a fair chance to join the team.
This position supports flexible work arrangements, including weekend, weekday, part-time, after-school, and temporary engagements, catering to a wide range of lifestyles and needs.
