Our sour and fruit gummies are sold on Amazon, DTC, TikTok, and at major retailers across the country.
We're not a startup hoping something works. We've taken better‐for‐you candy from an idea to retail shelves nationwide and built a brand that consumers love. We move with the speed of a startup: small teams with real ownership and accountability.
This is the place where you'll see the entire machine: flavor development, formulation, packaging, co‐manufacturing, compliance, marketing, marketplace strategy, retail, all in one team. If you want to build and ship a food brand at scale, there is no better place than this.
You are in charge of commercializing every Shameless Snacks product: taking an approved brief and delivering a formula, spec, supplier and stable first commercial production run, on the roadmap date and at the target cost. Shameless is an omnichannel better‐for‐you confectionery brand. Formulation across all platforms, with every formula owned by Shameless in writing.
Benchtop samples, hands‐on — you make them yourself and through flavor‐house and co‐manufacturer labs (there is no in‐house lab today), and deliver them to Brand 3–4 weeks before flavor lock.
Regulatory and label data: nutrition panel, sugar grams, allergens, claims substantiation.
Brand owns consumer acceptance.
Structural packaging spec (bag, master case, display) with Brand on artwork.
Pilot runs, stability, scale‐up and first commercial run, ending in a released spec, BOM and test plan handed to Quality and Procurement
Post‐launch improvement: sensory consistency, cost‐down and reformulation, driven by market feedback and quality signals
Brand decides what and when. Brand owns the brief, the roadmap, consumer acceptance, artwork and go‐to‐market
Quality (under the Director of Supply Chain, Procurement and Sourcing)
approves the spec and test plan and releases lots at the co‐manufacturer
Procurement and Sourcing owns commercial terms, MOQs and purchase orders
Written acceptance criteria exist for every platform, and every incoming sample is evaluated against them before it reaches Brand.
# Every launch on the roadmap ships on its date, with formulation freeze and benchtop samples delivered ahead of flavor lock
# Every project is visible in the pipeline system with a stage, owner and next gate, and nothing depends on one person's inbox.
10+ years in confectionery or adjacent food product development, still hands‐on at the bench, with formulation depth in gummies (pectin and starch), and depth in at least two of: aerated, panned/crunchy, licorice, sugar‐reduced systems (allulose, erythritol, fiber).
~ Has taken products from bench through pilot to first commercial run, and has transferred a formula between plants
~ Has qualified and managed co‐manufacturers without owning the plant, including site audits and holding a CM to spec.
~ Builds a BOM cost and knows yield and MOQ math.
Resourcefulness — there is no in‐house lab or pilot plant; Documentation discipline — formulas, specs and supplier history live in the system, not in your head.
Clear communication — you translate between Brand's consumer language and a co‐manufacturer's process language, in both directions.
