About Wonder Everything’s on the menu at Wonder. Except compromise. Wonder is the mealtime platform built to feed every craving in one order. With Wonder, you can mix and match hundreds of dishes from 20+ exclusive restaurants in a single order, so everyone gets exactly what they’re craving. Enjoy everything from tacos to Thai with $0 delivery fees, plus dine-in or pick up at a Wonder location near you. Each dish is made to order on-site by our culinary team and served hot. Behind the scenes, Wonder owns and operates every step of the dining experience, from recipe development to the technology that powers our experience, allowing us to deliver quality, variety, and consistency at scale. Join us as we work to make great food more accessible. About The Opportunity As a Merchant Intern, you will gain hands-on experience in procurement, supplier relationship management, and category analysis within the dynamic food-tech industry. You’ll work closely with the merchant team to support supplier evaluation, cost analysis, and sustainability initiatives, while learning how to balance quality, cost, and operational efficiency in a fast-paced environment. The Impact You Will Make Assist in identifying and evaluating new suppliers for produce, proteins, dairy, and specialty ingredients. Support data collection and analysis for cost modeling, supplier performance, and market trends. Participate in RFP (Request for Proposal) and vendor onboarding processes. Help monitor supplier compliance with food safety, quality, and sustainability standards. Conduct benchmarking research on commodity pricing and competitive sourcing strategies. Collaborate cross-functionally with Culinary, Supply Chain, and Operations teams to ensure sourcing decisions align with business needs.
