About the Team and Role:

In just 6 years, Rare Carat has grown to be the #1 marketplace for diamonds in the United States and was called the “Secret to buying a diamond” by the New York Times.

Rare Carat powers over $100m in annual sales by creating transparency in a historically opaque industry using AI and machine learning.

Launched in 2016 in Forbes as “Kayak” for diamonds, the company has been featured TechCrunch, NPR, USA Today, and CNBC - most recently in the New York Post for selling a record-setting $2.5m diamond online.

We have grown to over 100 employees, but remain a very flat and close-knit team committed to learning from each other, and having the best idea win.

Rare Carat is run by Wharton and Harvard Business School grads. Advisors include TrueCar’s founder, Blue Nile’s ex-CEO, Wharton’s Innovation Dean, and Richard Branson’s Venture Capital head.

Wondering why work with us? Here’s why:

We are a fully remote start-up, growing quickly from under 5 people to close to 100 in just six years.

Our culture is unique: we have a global, remote team of young people taking on more responsibility than most companies would give. We have a bias for action, and a meritocracy where the best ideas win.

We help customers with the most important purchase of their life so far, their engagement ring. Marrying humans and technology to help our customers make the right decision is thrilling and rewarding.

Also, if you are the right fit for our rocketship - we would make you an offer, you can’t refuse :)
