Work with us
At Moonpig Group our mission is to help people connect and create moments that matter. We’re an international group made up of three brilliant brands – Moonpig in the UK, Ireland, US and Australia, and Greetz in the Netherlands – with our newest addition Buyagift joining us in 2022.

We were founded with a goal to disrupt the traditional greetings industry. Two decades on, we’re an established leader within the online gifting market, offering a wide range of products to customers across the world.

Moonpig is an iconic brand and innovator, with clear values (read more about our values here!). These values set our teams and our business up for success in an environment that’s fun, supportive and challenging. They’re the glue that binds us together and we think of them as a platform to help us deliver our best work. You have every chance to drive impact here at Moonpig, and most importantly, we genuinely want you!

Our architecture is built for scale and flexibility which will allow us to quickly innovate and launch new propositions -- coupling that with the wealth of data we have on our customers, the sky's the limit in the world of experimenting with cutting edge ideas.

About the Product Studio Team
Our Product Studio team is at the forefront of Moonpig's product landscape, responsible for overseeing product data and events that drive our various platforms. Additionally, the team plays a pivotal role in developing and enhancing our internal tool, a crucial resource utilised by our designers to craft personalised products for our customers.

Looking ahead, our focus will centre on refining product data and introducing innovative features to bolster the Editor team in creating card designs. We support internal users across our Commercial and Design teams; from Range Planning and Buying, to Designing and Publishing cards and gifts. And there is much more to come!

Our expectations of our Associate Engineers:
A curious mind. You understand how the work you are doing fits into the wider organisational goals and how you can use data to stay focussed on the team objective.

Growth mindset. You challenge yourself to learn new things, to understand where your strengths and weaknesses are and reach out to others when necessary to learn from their own experiences.

Communication and Collaboration. You communicate the status of your work clearly and effectively and actively contribute in scoping sessions, working with peers to define the best implementation gaining knowledge and experience in the process.
