Who We Are

Resident is an industry leader in the Direct-to-Consumer (e-commerce) space. While our customers are primarily based in the US, our R&D, Product, and Data teams have been operating out of Tel Aviv since our founding. Our mission is simple, we are building a best-in-class e-commerce platform that leverages data and technology to create a competitive advantage for our brands. Starting from the marketing acquisition funnel and continuing through each customer’s journey, our tools and technology enable us to go the extra step to deliver a world-class customer experience.


Our company is built around continuously improving our ability to introduce new customers to our products, and wow them with exceptional experiences through the shopping and post-purchase journey. We love to use data and metrics to drive our decisions while keeping in mind that customers don’t speak in numbers and that each one should be treated as a member of our family.

Oh, and by the way - you’ll get to work with a diverse group of experts around the globe. You can expect a hard-working team that understands how to create meaningful connections and complete great work virtually - it’s in our nature!
