Job Description
ABOUT QUINCE
Quince is a destination for builders, creators, innovators, and operators who want to come together and challenge the status quo. Our mission is simple: make really high quality essentials for really low prices, fairly and sustainably. We deliver on that mission through a unique manufacturer-to-consumer (M2C) model eliminating the layers of traditional retail that add cost and result in consumers paying more than they need to. We find, build relationships with, and work directly with the manufacturing partners behind some of the world’s finest products. From there, our teams design smart, efficient operational processes and build and deploy proprietary technology, AI, and analytics to help us scale fast.
What began with a small assortment of elevated basics has quickly grown into a cross-category brand spanning apparel, accessories, home goods, and more. Today, tens of millions of people across a growing number of countries come – and return – to Quince because they trust us to deliver.
OUR CULTURE
Quince is a culture built for builders by builders. Our way of working starts with a blank sheet of paper. We question conventional thinking, use technology and data to uncover new opportunities, and move quickly to turn ideas into reality. We aren’t interested in replicating how others do retail. We’re building a better way – at a speed and scale unlike anything that’s been done before.
- We dream big and chase the hard problems others shy away from. Rejecting long-held assumptions is part of our company's DNA. Where conventional wisdom says you have to choose – soft or durable, speed or rigor, quality or price – we ask why that trade-off has to exist in the first place.
- Our pace is fast and the bar is high because our customers expect a lot from us and we refuse to let them down. We believe the best results come from challenging ourselves, learning from one another, and building on each other's strengths.
- Here, responsibility is not determined by role, tenure, or seniority. Every team member - no matter their level - has the opportunity to drive our business and shape our trajectory.
If you’re someone who likes to imagine new possibilities and build better systems rather than plug-in to outdated ones, Quince is the place for you.
THE ROLE
Customer Experience Category Specialist
You'll be the category authority—a hybrid of customer service specialist, product owner, and operations strategist. In this customer facing role you’re not just solving problems. You're owning the entire experience for your product line and pushing the business to get better. This is a true omni-channel position - your customer interactions will span across multiple channels including phone, sms/chat and email.
But it doesn't stop there. You notice patterns. You gather data. You think about why problems are happening in the first place, not just how to fix today's customer. You collaborate systematically. "We've had 7 quality complaints on this item in a month. Here's the evidence. Here's what I think we should do." You prevent the next problem.
You're also an expert. The team comes to you. You know the products inside and out. You understand the customer complaints, the common issues, the edge cases.
This is a startup, which means gray areas pop up daily, we move fast, and you'll have impact quickly. You'll own things. You'll grow here. You'll make a real impact on how we serve customers and build our business.
QUALIFICATIONS
Who you are:
- 3+ years of client facing, omni channel customer experience (retail, e-commerce, SaaS, hospitality)
- Consistent top performer, driven by results and impact.
- Curious. You ask "why" and think systemically.
- Comfortable with ambiguity. You don't need perfect information to move.
- Genuinely care about elevating the customer experience.
- Coachable. You take feedback and actually change.
- Not scared of tools. You learn systems quickly.
- Understand luxury—quality, attention to detail, respect for the customer's investment.
- Remote-capable. You work independently but enjoy team collaboration.
What success looks like
Customer satisfaction. Quick response times. Rare mistakes. High volume without cutting corners. Within 90 days, you've identified one systemic way to prevent customer problems

Quince is a consumer technology platform rebuilding retail from the infrastructure up.
The company began with a towel. A hotel-grade towel retailed for roughly $80. The manufacturing partner who made it sold it for about $7. Nothing about the product justified the gap. The gap was the system.
Quince was built to replace that system. Its proprietary Manufacturer-to-Consumer (M2C) platform connects customers directly to the manufacturing partners behind some of the best-made products in the world, with demand signals flowing back to partners weekly so production follows what customers are actually buying, not a year-old forecast. No promotional calendar, no inventory built on guesses, no layered costs priced into the product.
What differentiates Quince is not pricing. It is the system. The proof is in how the company operates: cost breakdowns published on product pages, a 365-day return policy, third-party lab testing, and products removed from the assortment at Quince's cost when they fall below the quality bar. Because the platform produces against real demand, the excess inventory that defines conventional retail is never made. Responsibility is built into the model, not added on top of it.
Today, Quince offers curated essentials across 100+ categories, from cashmere and linen to fine jewelry and furniture, at prices typically 50 to 70 percent below comparable market prices, and is one of the fastest-growing consumer platforms in the industry.
