About Terrific
Terrific Live is a social commerce platform that helps retailers and eCommerce brands grow revenue through live, interactive, social-native shopping experiences on their own websites. Our platform connects audiences and shop presenters in real time — streaming to general brands, retailers, and media groups across Latin America, Europe, and Israel — and turns live moments into measurable sales.

You’ll partner closely with the R&D; managers, Product manager, and Design on the hardest, highest-leverage problems.
