UX/UI Product Design Apprentice

Back Market is the world’s leading refurbished electronics marketplace with a team of 650 people, powering operations in 18 countries (and counting!).

Named one of the World's Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company in 2019 and again in 2021, our mission is simple: empowering people to consume tech sustainably by offering folks a high quality, accessible, and more eco-friendly alternative to buying new electronics. Why? Refurbished tech helps lower our collective environmental impact. We have indeed contributed to avoid the production of more than 1,000,000 tons of CO2e worldwide since our launch in 2014.

Be part of an exciting and growing international adventure that will change the way the world consumes tech.

You’ll be part of the Product Design team at Back Market. We’re passionate about building interfaces with a user-centric mindset.

We’re responsible for the user experience on Back Market for customers with after sales issues, customer service agents and sellers of refurbished tech. We improve and innovate through designing, prototyping, testing, and iterating. We evolve it in collaboration with extraordinary people.  We do this because we want to make the world a better place (that sounds cheesy, but we mean it!). After all, our goal is to offer more than just an alternative avenue to buy tech products – we want to do e-commerce differently. ♻️
