As our new Financial Operations Analyst, join us in transforming the humble noodle into a stealthily healthy delight and disrupting a $4.4B category.

Goodles

We took the humble noodle and made it stealthily healthy, so you can have your mac and eat it too. It’s kind of a big deal, packed into a tiny noodle. Even more important than what we do is HOW we do it. We zig when others zag, we are humble, creative – every single one of us – and we do our work with JOY. (Can you taste it in our food and see it in our marketing?). If you strive to do the best work of your life for a legendary brand, then we want to talk to you.
