Senior Android Engineer, London

Tilt

Our mission is to make fashion accessible to all and inspire everyone to dress a little better. We believe e-commerce is in a rut, with brands lost in a decades-long void, lacking innovation, and mindlessly redesigning websites without fixing the real issue — making shopping fun and affordable.

Today, we are the UK's biggest live shopping platform focused on making shopping a joyful, social experience that brings people together and helps everyone level up their style. We've raised an $18m Series A, and we're rapidly growing and looking to hire A-players to build the future of shopping.
