Overview
Bombfell is an online personal styling service for men and one of the fastest-growing startups in the country. In 2017, we were included in the Inc. 5000 list for fastest-growing companies (#218). We’re building a powerful, entirely personalized retail experience that enables men to buy their clothing with confidence.
Featured in such prominent publications as the New York Times, TIME, Business Insider, Wall Street Journal, TechCrunch and Vogue, Bombfell is backed by world-class investors with deep e-commerce experience.
HOW WE DO
We pride ourselves on blending best-in-class tech with expert styling and have attracted an extraordinarily well-rounded team of both technical and creative talent.
We’ve entered hyper-growth stage and are scaling our team to make a dent in the e-commerce universe.
We’ve got a close-knit culture that prioritizes results, self-motivation, a diversity of viewpoints and open communication. We treasure humility and foster camaraderie. We’ve got engineers, fashionistas, marketers and ops all under one roof in an open floor plan.
We eat (company-provided) lunches together every day, have team-building exercises every 2 months and dismissively snipe about each other in our Game of Thrones fantasy league.
