Brand Partnerships - Internship

About the internship:We're VibeSquad. Come build with us.

VibeSquad is a shopping platform built for tastemakers the people who spot what's cool before everyone else does. Tastemakers on VibeSquad help their social followers discover products that are genuinely trending, backed by real people rather than ads.

Users can explore trending products, see who is backing them, read authentic feedback, understand products better, and make informed purchase decisions. When users back a product and share it with their community, they earn cashback. The more their taste is appreciated and their influence grows, the more their rewards grow with it.

Tastemakers, or rising influencers, are the authentic pull factor behind VibeSquad. We're building the platform that gives them the recognition and rewards they deserve.

On the brand side, if it's trending on Instagram, it should be on VibeSquad.

You'll work closely with founders who have invested in billion-dollar companies, scaled fan-engagement platforms used by 17 of Europe's top soccer teams, and influenced India's national innovation policy.

We move fast, think big, and ship even bigger. If your 9-to-5 or college timetable is putting you to sleep, this might be the opportunity you're looking for.

Your taste, finally working for you instead of the other way around.Additional information:
