About The Team
A Motion Designer’s role involves a lot of creativity, quirkiness, and user understanding.
As a Motion Designer, these skills you will bring to a team solving a unique problem, one that’s mostly untouched by other e-commerce players. We are making e-commerce accessible for Tier-2+ markets who are new to e-commerce and have rarely transacted online.
Our Design team is as diverse as our users. Today, the team comprises about 30 Designers -- including Interaction, Visual, Motion, and Content Designers.
But wait, there’s more! We’re individuals who are obsessed with our users. We empathize. We solve at grassroots levels. We are breaking all the barriers -- be it language, literacy, culture, or technology.
