</p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 107%; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">At WISEcode, we're a well-funded, dynamic startup. WISEcode makes personalized nutrition a reality based on the facts – what truly is in our food — and marries this data with your preferences. Powered by AI and the world’s best food and nutrition database, WISEcode embraces the fact that we are all different, have different dietary needs, objectives, and preferences, and should not be at the mercy of market spin or “expert” opinion. Every one of us should have the information we need to make the best decisions for ourselves.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Figtree; color: #1a102c;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #1f1f1f;">WISEcode is a food tech AI company building the world’s most comprehensive food data platform. We map 15,000 data points per product to power a scientific logic engine that determines how food is understood.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Figtree; color: #1a102c;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #1f1f1f;">At the center of this system is the <strong>Code Library</strong>—a growing set of computational models that translate ingredients and nutrients into structured intelligence. As an Applied Computational Nutrition Scientist, you are a model builder. You will use our proprietary Code Builder to explore structures, refine assumptions, and shape the behavior of the system that serves as the "Bloomberg for Food."</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Figtree; color: #1a102c;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #1f1f1f;">The <strong>Applied Computational Nutrition Scientist</strong> role represents a fundamental shift in food science: moving away from linear hand-offs between scientists and engineers toward an interactive, rapid modeling loop. The role reports directly to the VP of Science.</span></p>
