Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Sleeping Duck Full time

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 Project Coordinator to join the team and be part of this journey.

Improving the sleep experience through product innovation is what has distinguished Sleeping Duck from other bedding companies.

It all started with the award-winning next-gen mattress that allows you to perfect the comfort of the mattress no matter your body type or sleep position.

Fast forward to 2023, and we've launched our newest game-changer, the SD Indestruct Bed.

It is a bed that will give the perfect support to any mattress while also allowing it to take on any aesthetic look.


What we've launched so far is just the beginning, and as we continue to expand our product range and explore new frontiers in the sleep experience space, there is an abundance of opportunities for our Product team to get involved in some exciting projects.
