Fans of Snoop Dogg who also have a sweet tooth may have just found their dream job. The rapper’s Dr. Bombay ice‑cream brand, produced in partnership with Bosslady Foods, announced an opening for an International Ice‑Cream Taster. The position is a three‑month independent‑contractor engagement that pays $10,000 per month, for a total of $30,000.
What the job entails
According to the posting, the hired taster will travel the globe in search of the most interesting and high‑quality frozen desserts. The core mission is summed up in a brief, enthusiastic brief: “Taste. Travel. Discover. Report back to Snoop.” Over the three‑month period, the contractor will sample a wide variety of ice‑cream, sherbet and other frozen treats, then provide detailed feedback that will help shape Dr. Bombay’s next flavor release.
Who should apply
The listing emphasizes that the brand is not looking for a traditional, stuffy food critic. Instead, it seeks someone who is curious about food, plugged into contemporary culture, comfortable on social media and capable of turning a simple scoop into an engaging story. Creators, foodies, marketers, students, entrepreneurs, journalists, chefs and anyone with an unconventional background are encouraged to apply.
Applicants must be able to travel internationally, have a passport, and be willing to share video or social‑media content as part of the application. Additional language skills are considered a plus, though not required.
Personal connection for Snoop
The job carries a sentimental tie for the rapper. Snoop’s father grew up on a dairy farm in Mississippi and made ice‑cream by hand. Those family memories later inspired Snoop and his son, Cordell Broadus, to create the Dr. Bombay line, which blends classic creamy ice‑cream with sherbet and unexpected flavor combinations under the banner “nostalgia, remixed.” The new taster will help Snoop choose his next flavor, continuing that family tradition.
How to apply
Interested candidates can submit their applications through the hiring platform Deel, which will also handle payments. The posting encourages applicants to include video introductions, social‑media links and any other material that showcases their personality and palate.
Because the role is classified as an independent contractor position, the $10,000 monthly payment will be issued through Deel after the contractor fulfills the agreed‑upon deliverables. No benefits or traditional employee protections are attached.
Why this matters
Beyond the novelty of working for a high‑profile celebrity, the opportunity highlights a growing trend in the food industry: brands are increasingly turning to freelance talent to source authentic, on‑the‑ground insights. By hiring a globe‑trotting taster, Dr. Bombay hopes to stay ahead of flavor trends and connect directly with consumers who crave unique, culturally relevant frozen desserts.
For anyone with a passion for ice‑cream, a flair for storytelling and the flexibility to travel, this could be a once‑in‑a‑lifetime chance to influence a national brand while earning a solid paycheck.
