ABOUT SPARK

We’re applying engineering, design, technology, and, above all, fresh thinking to reimagine the modern grilling experience. Wait what? Grilling is an American pastime. It’s part of our social fabric. Why change something that’s not broken? 

We believe parts of the experience and category are broken or stale. Even what’s working can be improved – but we can’t ruin what people already love. That’s a tough balance to strike. But we believe there’s a huge opportunity. 

Spark combines the artisanship of the pre-gas era with the technology of today to give cooks the authenticity, taste and character of charcoal without all the hassle. 

To apply, please send your resume and cover letter to careers @sparkgrills.com. Include a couple of thoughts telling us what you love about grilling or cooking, plus what you think could be improved or what could use some fresh thinking about the grilling experience or the grilling category in general.
