About Sleeping Duck
Sleeping Duck was founded in 2014 by engineers Winston Wijeyeratne and Selvam Sinnappan and is now one of Australia’s fastest growing startups - and that’s particularly unique because we design our own concept products entirely in house.
Ground-breaking, engineer led, in-house product design. Real sleep science. Transparency. Honesty. Value. And a commitment to passionate, exemplary customer connection, service and support. We are a multi award winning product company that is reinventing the way Australian’s improve their sleep quality through better and more accessible high quality bedroom products.
Our team is exceptionally driven. We are led closely by our experienced founders and foster a strong inclusive culture. We are unified in our vision for reinventing the sleep product space to make better sleep accessible for everyone, no matter who you are. It is an exciting place to work because everyone at Sleeping Duck wants to do exceptional things.
We do almost everything in house which gives us a rare sense of unity of purpose in our vision to make better products and experiences for our customers. Our 60+ person team is very passionate, and includes Product Development, Story and Marketing, Supply Chain, Customer Experience and Technology.
We are growing rapidly with significant expansion plans taking place over the next two years – making it a very exciting time for a new Creative Coordinator to join the team and be part of this journey.
