Commercial co-ops will have the opportunity to gain experience in core functional areas at the center of our customer experience and contribute directly to the growth and success of the company.

A successful co-op will be able to develop a strong understanding of what drives commercial sales and leverage cross-functional relationships to drive business strategies to grow Wayfair’s retail business. The ideal candidate is curious, analytical, and customer-focused with great judgment and creative problem-solving skills. They will be passionate, organized, and comfortable working in a cross-functional environment.

Possible Team Placements Include:

3D Operations

The 3D Operations team is a new, rapidly growing team at Wayfair and one of Wayfair’s top initiatives. For commercial, imagery sells products; however the traditional method of creating imagery 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.
