We're transforming the grocery industry
At Instacart, we invite the world to share love through food because we believe everyone should have access to the food they love and more time to enjoy it together.

We work to deliver an essential service that customers rely on to get their groceries and household goods, while also offering safe and flexible earnings opportunities to Instacart Personal Shoppers.
Instacart has become a lifeline for millions of people, and we’re building the team to help push our shopping cart forward. If you’re ready to do the best work of your life, come join our table.

Overview
About the Role
As a Retail Ops Excellence Sr. Associate, Implementation, you'll be vital in supporting on-the-ground launch activities at new Caper Store Launch Sites. You’ll play a key role in initial launch success, facilitating pre and post-launch processes, and ensuring that on-the-ground execution aligns with our strategic goals.
We have three openings associated for this role and are seeking candidates across key geographies (East, West, Central US). In this role, we’d aim to focus your travel and launch support to your primary region with up to 75% travel during typical launch periods. During busy periods or more complex implementations this role may require some weekend support, travel outside your Primary Region, and/or you to spend your entire working week at a site (100% away from home).
This position requires a proactive, strategic mindset, adaptability to changing conditions, and the ability to communicate with stakeholders at all levels, from store associates to corporate leaders. Your efforts will directly contribute to transforming retail operations, elevating performance across Instacart’s in-store technology and product lines.
About the Team
You’ll be joining the Retail Ops Excellence (ROE) team, a driving force behind operational success for Instacart’s retail partners using our Caper Carts. The ROE team is instrumental in scaling in-store technology and fulfillment solutions to unlock growth, optimize efficiency, and enhance the in-store experience for both customers and associates.
The Programs & Implementation Team, as part of the ROE Team, manages the development, planning, and rollout of solutions across new launches, expansions, and new features while also fostering continuous improvement to provide a best-in-class store experience for users, keeping retailers in mind.
This role will be focused on Connected Stores, specifically Caper, our smart shopping cart offering using deep learning and computer vision for a seamless grab-and-go retail experience. Our plug-and-play solution needs no store renovations; retailers simply buy the carts to gain cashierless capabilities. Caper, a fast-growing retail automation product, costs less than 1% of competitors’ infrastructure and is widely adopted. Our cross-functional team solves problems our customers love.
