Customs and Trade Compliance Specialist

Us in a glimpse:

Founded in 2016 by a BCG consultant frustrated with his engagement ring buying experience, Rare Carat has grown

to be one of the largest diamond jewelry online retailers in the United States. It was called the “Secret to Buying A

Diamond” by the New York Times.

Rarecarat.com powers over $100m in annual sales by creating transparency in a historically opaque industry using

AI indicators and human expert advice. Operating on an innovative "managed marketplace" business model, the

company combines the selection advantages of a marketplace with the quality assurance of a traditional retailer.

We have grown to over 180+ employees, but remain a very flat and close-knit team committed to learning from

each other, and having the best idea win.

Rare Carat is run by Wharton and Harvard Business School grads. Advisors include TrueCar’s founder, Blue Nile’s

ex-CEO, Wharton’s Innovation Dean, and Richard Branson’s Venture Capital head. We have been featured in the New

York Times, TechCrunch, NPR, USA Today, CNBC, among others.
