Interim Demand Planning Manager
Bobbie
Direct-to-consumer organic infant formula producer
Bobbie makes European-style organic infant formula manufactured end-to-end in the U.S., because we believe every parent deserves to feed their baby with confidence, without judgment and without compromise. No mystery ingredients. No shortcuts. Just clean, thoughtfully made formula that parents can trust.
But Bobbie has never been just a formula company. When the 2022 national infant formula shortage left parents across the country unable to feed their babies, we closed our storefront to new customers rather than leave a single existing family without formula. We went to Washington. We got loud. And we opened our Heath, Ohio manufacturing facility to make sure something like that could never happen again.
That's who we are, and that's what you'd be joining.
Our advocacy arm, Bobbie for Change, exists because making great formula isn't enough if the systems around parenthood are still broken. We fight for paid federal parental leave, push for legislation to prevent future formula shortages, advocate for feeding equity, and support families navigating impossible situations, including donating formula to parents impacted by breast and gynecologic cancers through the Bobbie Breasties program.
We're a company that genuinely believes becoming a parent makes you an activist. The people who work here feel that too.

Bobbie manufactures organic infant formula sold directly to consumers. The formula uses grass-fed cow milk, a proprietary organic fat blend, and lactose to resemble breast milk, with processing that avoids chemical solvents and high heat. It avoids common fillers and allergens like corn syrup, palm oil, maltodextrin, gluten, pesticides, antibiotics, and soy to offer a clean-label option. Its goal is to provide a high-quality organic nutrition choice for infants and to support families who cannot breastfeed by offering formula for a full year.
