Lead Shopify

From our early days with just 1 glorious mattress-in-a-box to our name to now offering 6 sublimely comfy (and, ahem, award-winning) mattresses and a whole host of top-notch sleep goodies, we’ve come a long way since 2015. And we couldn’t do it without our team of cracking individuals who make the magic happen every single day.

We’ve decided to establish our first off-shore team in Bangalore, India, with the goal of replicating our wonderful work culture as we tap into the world’s largest talent pools. Our aim is to secure our position as a fast-growing competitor in our sector. From setting up quality control to automation, this is your opportunity to be the Lead Developer of a team that takes Our Partner to the next level.

Apply today if you wish to play a key role in delivering a wide range of initiatives on our 2021-22 roadmap and be a part of Our Partner's future!
