【 About the company 】

At Tomofun, we LOVE pets and technology. Our vision is to bring joy and innovation to every pet lover in the world.

We are pioneers in the pet tech industry. Our debut product, Furbo - the world's first AIoT treat-tossing pet camera, is the #1 bestseller on Amazon in 15 countries, including the US, UK, and JP and have millions of users in 133 countries. In 2019, we launched an AI-powered subscription service, the Furbo Pet Nanny, which sends smart alerts to our users to notify them to check on the safety of their furbabies when they are home alone. Since the launch of Furbo Pet Nanny, we have saved hundreds of pets' lives and are continuing to innovate and develop new features with our state-of-the-art technology.

The learning curve is steep. But the work is exhilarating. Tomofun is on the cusp of a pet-tech boom and we’re looking for smart, innovative thinkers who aspire to incredible things.
