Impossible Foods

Redwood City, CA · founded 2011

Impossible Foods makes plant-based meat — the Impossible Burger and, later, plant-based chicken, pork and sausage — with the explicit mission of replacing animals in the food system to cut land, water and greenhouse-gas use. Founded by Stanford biochemist Patrick O. Brown, it is a science-heavy, mission-driven company: its stated values are 'Lead with Heart,' 'Stand Up For What's Right,' 'Think Like Scientists,' 'Go For 10¹²' and 'Blast Ahead!', and it leans hard on R&D. Honest caveats: it is a private, venture-backed food-tech company in a sector that has cooled since its peak, headcount is modest (LinkedIn lists 201–500), and the careers page is heavier on mission than on specifics, so day-to-day pay and stability carry the usual late-stage-startup uncertainty.
