Software Development Engineer - 1 (Mobile)

OUR STORY

Quince was started to challenge the existing idea that nice things should cost a lot. Our mission was simple: create an item of equal or greater quality than the leading luxury brands and sell them at a much lower price.

OUR VALUES

*Customer First.* Customer satisfaction is our highest priority.

*High Quality.* True quality is a combination of premium materials and high production standards that everyone can feel good about.

*Essential design.* We don’t chase trends, and we don’t sell everything. We’re expert curators that find the very best and bring it to you at the lowest prices.

*Always a better deal.* Through innovation and real price transparency we want to offer the best deal to both our customers and our factory partners.

*Environmentally and Socially conscious.* We’re committed to sustainable materials and sustainable production methods. That means a cleaner environment and fair wages for factory workers.
