Mobile Product Designer
Reverb is a leading online marketplace for buying and selling new, used, and vintage musical instruments. Since launching in 2013, Reverb has grown into a vibrant community of buyers and sellers all over the world. By focusing on inspiring content, price transparency, musician-focused eCommerce tools, a music-savvy customer service team, and more, Reverb has built an online destination where the global music community can connect over the perfect piece of music gear. In 2019 Reverb was acquired by Etsy. With the added support of one of the largest online marketplaces, we are on a path to becoming the go-to site for musicians everywhere. We’re also doing our part to support small and boutique gear makers, local music shops around the world, and musicians who are losing income due to COVID-19.
The Mobile Product Designer’s primary responsibility is to craft user experiences for our iOS and Android native apps that delight and motivate users to continue engaging with Reverb. We’re looking for a passionate designer ready to understand, support, and evolve our ever-maturing native applications.
We believe in shipping features quickly and safely, and we seek to measure the effectiveness of – and learn from – everything we create. We’re a lean team and always seek to use the right tool for the job, whether that be native code or a web view.
