    This position is based on-site in our Brooklyn office (with a hybrid schedule).

    ABOUT THE PRODUCT TESTING LAB:

    Our goal is to make our readers' lives easier by offering practical, real-life advice. We do the research, interview industry experts, and test products in our lab and in home settings-all to give trustworthy, unbiased recommendations for products that are chosen based on performance, test results, and hands-on experiences. We collect performance data on every product we test and translate that into easy to understand recommendations to help you find the right products to buy.

    The goal of the photography at the lab is to show our readers just how thorough and legitimate our testing process is. We aim to build trust with our readers by remaining authentic and accessible through our imagery. Anyone can look up a polished product image on a manufacturer website, but we aim to provide a 360 view into how the product will fit into readers' everyday lives.
