About Miramasa

Miramasa is a fast-fine Indian restaurant concept reimagining clean eating through the lens of Ayurveda and modern technology . Think Cava meets modern India — customizable, wellness-driven meals rooted in authentic Indian flavors and elevated by intelligent, tech-powered personalization.

We’re building more than a restaurant — we’re creating a lifestyle brand that nourishes both body and mind. Our space is designed to feel serene, modern, and soulful , where guests can experience balance, beauty, and bold flavor in every bite.

About the Role

We’re looking for a visionary Executive Chef to join our founding team and help define the culinary DNA of Miramasa. You’ll lead menu creation, shape our kitchen culture, and bring Ayurvedic wisdom to life in a modern, scalable way — starting with our flagship Chicago location and growing from there.

What You’ll Do

  • Create and inspire : Design our signature menu and seasonal offerings — vibrant, balanced, and full of flavor.

  • Bridge tradition and innovation : Translate Ayurvedic principles into delicious, accessible dishes for a modern audience.

  • Build from the ground up : Establish kitchen systems, SOPs, and workflows for fast-fine service.

  • Champion ingredients : Source high-quality, sustainable, and nutrient-dense ingredients that reflect our wellness philosophy.

  • Collaborate with technology : Partner with our data and product teams to develop personalized meal recommendation tools.

  • Lead with heart : Hire, train, and mentor a passionate culinary team that thrives on creativity and purpose.

Who You Are:

  • A seasoned chef (5–10+ years) with experience in fast-casual, fine dining, or global fusion kitchens.

  • Deeply passionate about global cuisine , clean eating, and culinary innovation.

  • Both creative and operationally sharp — you love building systems that make artistry scalable.

  • Excited to join an early-stage concept and leave your mark on a growing brand.

  • Bonus: Knowledge of Ayurveda, nutrition, or holistic wellness .

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • Founding team opportunity — your ideas will shape our menu, brand, and culture from day one.

  • Creative freedom to experiment and innovate within a mission-driven framework.

  • A brand with purpose — where food, technology, and wellness meet to create something truly new.

  • Competitive compensation, with potential equity or partnership for the right fit.
