Overview

We are GigSalad, an online entertainment booking company serving all of the United States and Canada.

As an instrumental part of the company, you’ll work closely with product management and engineering to take your vision from idea to execution. Your insights will not only influence the look of the site, but will also extend to branding and marketing initiatives across the company.

We’re looking for a full-time employee who is excited to improve our marketplace. We’re a private and profitable company. We like tackling rewarding problems, taking time to solve things the right way, and focusing on a single product. Reach out to us and learn more about your role in improving GigSalad.
