DescriptionAbout Ephemeral We’re on a mission to create a world where every body is a canvas for limitless self-expression. In 2021, after six years of research and development, we launched the world’s first and only made-to-fade tattoo that lasts a year. With our technology and our experiential Ephemeral Studios, we are making it possible for anyone to wear a tattoo that changes as they change. Read more about us in Bloomberg, Forbes, Vogue, or The Cut. Despite being a 12,000-year-old consumer category, tattooing has seen little innovation while being held back by stigma and permanence. At Ephemeral, we see tattoos as an empowering, beautiful, and creative way to express your identity. We dream of a day when tattoos become the number one form of global self-expression. We are looking for teammates that share this passion and are excited by the prospect of building without a playbook, are undaunted by big audacious ideas, and are committed to teamwork. Why You’ll Love Working at Ephemeral We are creative – We see problems as opportunities for innovation, love when playbooks don’t exist, and push the boundaries of what’s possible. We are owners - Leadership is expected at every level at Ephemeral, during good and bad times. We are caring - Our priority is our customer's and teams' physical and mental well-being.
