Job DescriptionWhy Vinterior
Welcome to Vinterior, the new home of vintage. We think there’s a better alternative to brand new – our purpose is to champion vintage for a more characterful and sustainable world.
Vinterior launched in 2016 with 12 London dealers and 200 mid-century furniture pieces. In five years, we’ve grown to 1,800 vintage sellers across Europe, listing 200,000+ products across 97 furniture and homeware categories and generating over $600 million in sales worldwide.
After growing 120% in 2020, we’ve become the leading vintage marketplace in the UK. And we’re not stopping there. We’ve raised a $10m Series A to accelerate growth and expand into new markets, with the mission to become the #1 vintage platform in Europe by love and scale.

About the Engineering and Product team
Vinterior comprises a team of 43, including 5 in engineering (1 staff engineer, 1 senior engineer, 3 full-stack engineers). We currently have 3 cross-functional squads, plus a varying number of stakeholders.

<li>Seller experience. Our 1,800 sellers are independent small and medium-sized businesses that have to juggle many tasks with limited resources. Our aim is to equip them with the tools and market insights that allow them to grow their online sales with minimum effort.
