Rally gives ecommerce merchants the freedom to build a checkout experience that reflects their brand. We are part of a growing headless commerce ecosystem, playing a critical role in joining a multi-dimensional, flexible frontend experience with the backend that best suits the merchant. Our goal is to give merchants the tools to create a seamless checkout experience, connect more deeply with their customers, and significantly impact revenue growth. We appreciate a decentralized ethos and are merchant and revenue-focused, always. Merchants should own their checkout and Rally is here to help them do that.

As we are launching V1 of the Rally product, we are thinking more broadly about how we can build community and a thought leadership ecosystem around decentralized ecommerce. We are looking for a Media Producer and Content Strategist to join our team to bring this broader media vision to life.

We are looking for an individual who is passionate about ecommerce and storytelling, can operate at both a high altitude and execute on the day-to-day, and is ready to connect and build.
