Ploom is looking for a problem-solving, hands-on mechanical engineer
to join us this summer in San Francisco. Ploom is currently in
pre-production of a radical consumer product and in need of a bright
engineer to assist in testing, design and product engineering strategy.
We are a VC-funded product startup intent on bringing rapid change to
the stagnant tobacco industry. The WHO recently reported that 1
billion people could die from smoking by the end of this century.
Public policy and other control efforts have met limited success.
Through a deep understanding of consumer needs, proprietary
technologies and intelligent business strategy we have developed a
more compelling, radically different solution.
