About the Team
Meesho is on a mission to enable 100 million businesses to succeed online. With your help, we can go beyond! We’re making e-commerce accessible for tier-2+ markets who are new to e-commerce and have almost never transacted online before🤩 Our Design team is as diverse as our users. Today, the team comprises about 47 Designers – including Interaction, Visual, Motion, and Content Designers🙌
As Design Manager, you’ll be part of a team solving a unique problem, one that’s mostly untouched by other e-commerce players.
But wait, there’s more! We’re individuals who are obsessed with our users. We empathize. We solve at grassroots levels. We’re breaking all the barriers -- be it language, literacy, culture, or technology💪
This year we created a brand new Design System followed by a full app revamp - all in just 3 months! It’s hardly a coincidence that our monthly orders improved massively in the last six months.
