Senior Product Designer
: Job Details :

Who is Recruiting from Scratch:

Recruiting from Scratch is a talent firm that focuses on placing the best candidate for our clients. Our team is 100% remote and we work with teams across North America, South America, and Europe to help them hire.

About Us:

We were built with a single mission in mind - to deliver superior trees and plants that you can count on, directly to your door.

We started selling trees in our backyard in 2005, and we still do (only now, our backyard is nearly 100 acres). We pioneered the concept of farm-to-backyard plants, and made it possible to grow happier, healthier and easier than the garden center or big box store.

What sets us apart? We re as close to the farm as it gets. Our plants are sourced from the best growers across the country, cared for by our in-house Plant Experts and shipped straight to your yard. This means you're shopping straight from the source and guaranteed (yes, we guarantee them!) fresh, thriving plants. Forget the leftovers with us, you get first dibs on the biggest, freshest selection of privacy trees, shrubs, shade trees, fruits, flowering trees, house plants, perennials, tropicals and more, all from the comfort of your home. We're now America's #1 online nursery.
