Paleovalley and Wild Pastures were born from a simple but radical idea: real food can heal — people, animals, and the planet. When Paleovalley co-founders Autumn and Chas Smith saw how industrialized food was affecting human health and the health of the land, they refused to play along. Autumn’s own journey of healing through nutrient-dense foods lit a fire that became Paleovalley. From there, the mission grew roots, sprouted wings, and eventually expanded into Wild Pastures to bring regeneratively raised meats directly to families nationwide.
Today, Paleovalley crafts deeply nourishing snacks and supplements made with organic ingredients and honorable sourcing. Wild Pastures connects small American farmers practicing regenerative agriculture with customers who believe better food is worth fighting for. Every product, every partnership, and every decision is guided by a commitment to real ingredients, regenerative practices, and the belief that health is built from the soil up.
We’re a team of grounded doers, curious thinkers, bold builders, and warm humans who like to laugh while doing meaningful work. We're growing quickly, fueled by purpose and a shared desire to repair the food system one thoughtful choice at a time. If you feel energized by impact, drawn to mission, and ready to join a company rewriting the future of food, we’d love to meet you!
The technology behind Paleovalley and Wild Pastures is central to how customers shop, subscribe, and get help - and how our teams fulfill orders and run the business. Much of it was built in-house by our co-founder and CTO. As both brands grow, we need a technology organization that can keep these platforms strong, connect them with our business systems, and support the next stage of growth.
The Vice President of Technology will be the CTO’s trusted right hand and lead the full technology function across software engineering, business systems, and IT. This leader will set priorities and investment plans with the CTO, make consequential day-to-day decisions with substantial autonomy, and own the team, budget, delivery, and health of our technology. The role gives the CTO room to focus on company-wide direction and the technical work where he can add the most value.
Success here requires executive judgment, real technical depth, and a practical approach to AI and automation. You’ll work through architecture, code, and difficult incidents while building shared knowledge and ownership across the team. You’ll also guide AI adoption that improves how we build software and run the business, partnering with E-Commerce on reliable solutions for the shopping experience and commercial priorities.
Paleovalley and Wild Pastures are proud to be equal opportunity employers. We make employment decisions based on qualifications, merit, and business needs, and we do not discriminate based on any status protected by applicable federal, state, or local law. We’re also committed to providing reasonable accommodations throughout the hiring process. If you need assistance or an accommodation at any point, please reach out to HRteam@paleovalley.com.
All applicants must be authorized to work in the United States. At this time, Paleovalley and Wild Pastures are unable to sponsor or assume sponsorship of employment visas, including but not limited to H-1B, TN, or OPT. Any offer of employment is contingent upon completion of Form I-9 and verification of work authorization. We participate in E-Verify to confirm eligibility to work in the U.S.
To support an efficient and consistent application review process, we may use technology-assisted tools to help organize and review applications; however, these tools do not make hiring decisions. All final hiring decisions are made by our team.
