ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY: 

Today, e-commerce only partially replaces the in-person shopping experience. It’s still missing the joy of serendipitous discovery; the relief of fulfilling an urgent, last minute need; the immediate gratification of finding something just right. At OpenStore, we’ll fix that by building a vertically-integrated shopping destination, as broadly and horizontally as possible. What does that mean?

• Vertically integrated: We own every brand
• Horizontally: Across every category and price point

It’s an incredibly ambitious goal, and in order to achieve it we need to deliver a delightful online shopping experience to consumers. We are building entirely new consumer apps that will showcase our growing portfolio of over 40 brands, and bring back joy to shopping through novel ways to discover, purchase, and share unique products.

You will own the design of a brand new, innovative mobile-focused e-commerce app for iOS or the web. Incorporating a new visual identity and ultimately becoming a distinct consumer brand that’s loved by shoppers for finding the perfect product, right when they need it. You will develop high-fidelity prototypes to validate your ideas, collaborate with company leadership on strategy, and form close working relationships with your engineering colleagues to deliver a product that’s unlike anything else available to consumers today. This is a journey of discover where excellence in craft is a requirement and innovative ideas can be explored to their fullest potential.

• You like to build and ship. You have opinions and can drive forward to delivery. You think strategically about prioritization.
• You communicate and collaborate effectively. You know how to deliver the right message to the relevant audience at the appropriate level of detail. You co-create solutions that are better than the sum of individuals’ ideas. You embrace intellectual friction as a feature of improvement, not a relationship bug.
