Back Market is the #1 marketplace for refurbished electronic devices in Europe and in the US, leading the way in a shift towards a circular economy, freeing the planet from electronic waste. We are proud to sabotage ‘new’ by connecting highly certified professionals to consumers who are looking for a more affordable, reliable and an ecological alternative to purchasing brand new products.  

Back Market is undergoing meteoric growth and has raised over 335M€ already! We have the objective of reaching 650 Back Makers (or Saboteurs) by the end of 2021! 

We are thrilled to have an inclusive, fulfilling and caring work environment in all our offices (Paris, Bordeaux, New-York, Prague and Berlin). This is an opportunity for you to join a talented, humble and passionate team at the heart of innovation. 

Be a part of the movement. Join the refurb revolution.

You’ll be part of the Product Design & Research team at Back Market. We’re passionate about building interfaces with a user-centric mindset (of course we are). We zoom out to see the bigger picture but also understand the devil is in the details. We’re responsible for the user experience on Back Market, whether that be our customers or sellers, and through designing, prototyping, testing, and iterating, we evolve it in collaboration with extraordinary people. 
We do this because we want to make the world a better place (that sounds cheesy, but we mean it). After all our goal is to offer more than just an alternative avenue to buy tech products, we want to do e-commerce differently. <3

The role is open for: Apprenticeship (working students), Internship
Location is flexible: Paris, Berlin

Your Missions, if You Accept it:

  • Collaborating and supporting the product design team in their daily work
  • Ownership of some design projects that contribute to user and business impact
  • Helping us flesh out design ops documentation and material
  • Learning to be a kick ass product designer! 

You're at the Right Place, if:

  • You have a user centric mindset with some formal knowledge regarding UX / UI / Product Design processes
  • You are adept at designing and prototyping using tools like Figma, Miro, and Adobe Suite. You might also have animation / front end skills as a plus!
  • You’re open minded, curious and pragmatic
  • You have attention to detail and are obsessive about bringing quality to your design artefacts
  • You are comfortable in communicating professionally in English as we are an international team

1. How can I best prepare for the interviews? 
Research. There’s blogs, there’s social media accounts, there’s a lot to discover and, believe us, that information will not go unnoticed in the interviews.
Practice. It’s not a secret that a question “please introduce yourself” is something that will be the start of many interviews and this is surely something you can prep for, it will ease your stress! 

2. How do I know which team I’ll be allocated to? Which city?
Some teams are based in Paris, some in Bordeaux, therefore, it depends on this. You can share your flexibility in the application. Paris office (199 rue Championnet 75018) & Bordeaux office ( 123 Rue Lucien Faure, 33300). The offices are brand new & top-notch, I promise you :)

3. What is the application & recruitment process?
The application is straight forward - you attach your CV and answer some filtering questions. You choose the language you prefer to use in the conversations, except the initial call with HR. The rest of the process: 
- 30 min HR call with the recruiter (in English);
- 48 hours to work on a technical test;
- 30-45 minutes interviews (one of couple) to meet the team & evaluate your skills and cultural fit

4. Is the internship paid? What else is in the package?
Yes, indeed, the internships are paid. You also get meal vouchers, 6 days off throughout the 6 months & support for public transport expenses. And some discounts on Back Market’s platform, bien sûr! 

5. How are the interviews conducted?
Phone call with the recruiter and then video calls (we use Zoom!).

6. How are you dealing with the pandemic?
We coordinate the capacity of our offices to be careful & respectful to the national recommendations. Currently we are coming 2x/week to the office & constantly adapt to whatever the latest recommendations are. Internships cannot be full-remote (unless absolutely necessary due to the pandemic).

WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN US ? ✌?

Back Market can offer you the opportunity to gain invaluable experience in a scale up environment where everyday you can make a difference. 
With endless learning and growth opportunities, at the end of your internship you will be autonomous and ready to launch your career. 
We pride ourselves on having a supportive and open environment to help nurture and develop the skills needed for personal growth. 
Be prepared to have a lot of fun, we are an international, fast paced, open minded and friendly environment. 

Back Market is an Equal Opportunity Employer for any minority, disability, gender identity or sexual orientation.
