Nearby careers

Nearby was founded in May 2020 on a simple premise: people want to shop from stores near them, run by people in their community. They want their money to benefit their local economy by shopping locally - and the more accessible and convenient it is, the more they'll choose to do so. That’s where you come in.

We are setting out to build a better way to shop locally - with all the conveniences and user experience you’d expect from a big tech company, but for the independent shops in local communities that have historically been left behind by them. We’re building marketplaces like our first pilot in Oakland, California: Keep Oakland Alive. And behind those marketplaces, we’re building the toolset merchants need to thrive in a hybrid offline+online world.
