About Turtles
Turtles is building the world's #1 platform for powering interactive shopping experiences. We started with a simple truth: shopping used to feel magical. Over time, that spark got buried under endless scrolling and generic discounts. We believe shoppers deserve better, and that brands deserve better ways to sell.
We build a suite of powerful tools that help brands and retailers create exciting commerce experiences, find new customers, and solve real-world problems like managing surplus inventory. From legendary companies to innovative apps, Turtles powers smart shopping for some of the world's best brands.
The team is made up of highly-motivated, analytical and entrepreneurial professionals who work collaboratively to provide top-notch recreational shopping experiences for our customers. We challenge each other in an open and candid environment, no matter what our job title is, so that we may all grow and improve together.
Some fun facts about us
- Our remote-first team is spread out over 10+ countries
- Our platforms serve over 27 million US shoppers
- 92% of our revenue comes from repeat buyers! (And we are growing!)
We believe in
- Putting the Customer first in everything we do
- Small teams with lots of autonomy
- Making data driven decisions – "Best idea wins" culture
- Being candid, fair & honest
- Maintaining a flat meritocratic organization structure
- Managing through social trust, not control
- Allowing people to work from wherever and whenever (with a few exceptions) - results matter, not hours
