Job Description

Who We Are

Brami is democratizing the Italian “good life” by redefining Italian food for the modern pantry. 

Founded by Aaron Gatti, a first-generation Italian American inspired by family roots in Umbria and time in a Michelin-star kitchen, Brami centers its current product lineup on the ancient lupini bean—a Mediterranean superfood cherished for centuries. We offer two Made-in-Italy lines: Italian Protein Pasta (bronze-die extruded; just two ingredients—premium Italian durum semolina and whole-milled lupini flour; ~70% more protein, 25% fewer net carbs, and 3× the fiber vs. typical pasta) and snackable lupini beans cured in savory spices. Headquartered in the U.S., Brami is the #1 fastest-growing pasta brand in the country two years running, available online and in 5,000+ stores nationwide.
