Who: TaskRabbit
Position: Local Marketing Manager
Where: Seattle
What: TaskRabbit is on a mission to have everyone live a smarter, more fulfilling life by once again relying on their neighbors. We’re the pioneers of service networking — it’s like social networking, except instead of tagging embarrassing photos of each other, arguing about politics, or putting a baby photo where a profile snapshot should be, our members help each other save time and earn some money.
We’ve already raised $25 million through investors including Baseline Ventures, First Round Capital, FLOODGATE FUND, LightSpeed Venture Partners, and Shasta Ventures. We’re building a peer-to-peer marketplace that safely and reliably connects neighbors to get things done through the melding of social, location-based, and mobile technologies. We’re getting down and/or dirty with social graph analysis and analytics-driven optimization, with an eye toward user experience that’s both pleasant and frictionless, like a Slip ‘n’ Slide doused in baby oil.
We’re a mission-driven business and our culture is fast-paced. We’re looking for talented, entrepreneurially minded people who believe in moving the economy to a more collaborative place — and having a ton of fun while they’re at it.
