Six months ago I joined Eventbrite as Senior Android Engineer. Having worked here for six months now, I realise that Eventbrite is not just a product-based company but also a genuine tech company.

Eventbrite is a global events marketplace that allows anyone to create, share, find, and attend events that fuel their passions and enrich their lives.
