Looking for a job to get you out of bed?

Casper is looking for an experienced Merchandising Manager or Product Manager to lead the soft goods for Casper, with responsibility for the entire product line, from conception to performance in market. Our ideal candidate will have experience in soft goods and an exceptional taste level to create products that outfit and enhance the internet’s favorite sleep product.

Casper (casper.com) was created to re-imagine sleep from the ground up, beginning with its obsessively engineered, outrageously comfortable mattress. All of Casper’s sleep products — including its pillow, bedding, and furniture — are developed in-house by the company’s award-winning R&D team in San Francisco. Casper was named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in the World and its eponymous mattress was crowned one of TIME Magazine's Best Inventions.

We are deeply committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce so that we represent all those who dream big equally.
