We are currently recruiting for

a full-time senior Front End Engineer

in our rapidly expanding startup based in London.

bloobloom was created to change the way people buy their glasses by rebuilding the entire experience. In a market populated by dinosaurs, we’re putting design and technology back at the heart of the process of buying a pair, making the journey fun and exciting without costing a small fortune.

At bloobloom, we also want the right choice to be as easy as wearing a great pair of glasses. That’s why we only partner with ethical factories and donate a pair to someone in need for every pair we sell.
