GigSalad is the marketplace for booking entertainment and services for all types of events. Since 2007, we’ve helped millions of event planners create memorable experiences while providing work for musicians, magicians, bartenders, Elvis impersonators, and hundreds of other types of entertainers and event-related professionals. We’re a successful company with a fun product!

Our goal is straightforward: we want to be the ultimate destination for connecting planners with entertainers and services. We want GigSalad to be a seamless and secure experience for users, from browsing a profile to completing a booking and leaving a review. We want to do right by our members while showing off the festive and creative side inherent to what we do.

This is where you fit in. We’re looking for a full-time senior-level Product Designer to take responsibility for our marketplace’s design. We’re remote-friendly, we value work/life balance, and we offer a lot of independence with the role.
