3D Operations Business Analyst

3D Merch Services (MaaS Operations) - Operations Business Analyst

 

About the department

Are you curious about what the next generation of e-commerce will look like and how billions will shop in the next 5-10 years?  Do you want to be a part owner at a revolutionary company, where you’ll contribute to complex business cases? At Wayfair, we are redefining the way our customers can shop for furniture & home goods, using cutting edge technologies. We are looking for self-starters with an entrepreneurial spirit, intellectual curiosity, and passion for driving digital solutions.


The 3D Operations department is a new and rapidly growing team at Wayfair. It is one of Wayfair’s top initiatives. For ecommerce, images sell products, however the traditional method of creating images in a photo studio is time consuming and expensive. Wayfair is partnering with Google, Facebook, and other leaders in the industry to disrupt the imagery space and shift the industry towards the creation of computer-generated 3D product models and rooms that can be combined to create imagery for products at a grand scale for a fraction of the cost. These 3D models also enable the new way of shopping for customers through exciting AR/VR initiatives.
