Visit our careers page and view our public handbook at .Who we are, what we do, and how it’s goingBack in 2017, we saw an issue with last-mile delivery—it was too complicated and stressful for drivers. Circuit started a mission to change that by choosing to develop an app that put the driver and their customers first.We were astounded by the response we received. Within our first year, we had almost 1,000 customers, $100k in ARR, and a team consisting of our two co-founders, Jack and Pol. Today, we now help more than 100,000 drivers deliver over 1bn packages worldwide (about 20 a second!), $20m ARR, and a lean team of ~40.What you will be doingYou are an experienced Product Designer, so we won’t go into the day-to-day!
