Backend Developer

In a world where product size labels are wildly unreliable, Volumental is the footwear industry's leading FitTech™ company, using 3D scans and a one-of-a-kind, AI-powered recommendation engine to match everyone with the shoes that fit them best.

With top brand and retail partners across the world including New Balance, Bauer, The Athlete's Foot, Ecco and XXL, our footprint spans 2500+ stores across 45 countries, and growing!

What will you do?

Whether a customer is scanning their feet at a store in Japan or trying to find a pair of great fitting running shoes online, it’s all done through Volumental’s cloud. Cloud collects scan data, delivers 3D representations of your feet to your mailbox, and recommends footwear based on millions of scans and purchases. Your task will be to improve and extend the functionality of Volumental’s Cloud.
