COMPANY PROFILE: RING
There’s a connected device for everything now. Every-thing. All of these have come to market, wifi-enabled: egg trays, water bottles, baby-changing stations, forks, umbrellas, and even condoms (don’t ask).
But first there were the actually useful basics, like doorbells.
Smart-doorbell maker Ring was recently acquired by Amazon for $1 billion, and it has shown no signs of slowing, announcing a price drop and releasing a whole home security system (Ring Protect) since the acquisition.
Just a few years ago, however, Ring was called Doorbot, and the founder couldn’t get the sharks of Shark Tank to take the bait.
Today, Ring is hiring across skillsets – see their open jobs here.
