Co-founder & Lead Cloud Architect (Equity-based)

Salary Competitive

Equity To be negotiated

Are you ready to kill the "Standard Size Chart" and lead the technical scaling of a Fashion-Tech startup?

At UTRY, we are on a mission to bridge the gap between unique bodies and digital fashion. With over 1.5M DKK in soft funding and a live VTO (Virtual Try-On) MVP, we are ready to scale.

We are not looking for an employee; we are looking for a partner. We need a technically skilled, security-minded, and hands-on Software Co-founder to join our founding team and join our mission in shaping the future of online shopping.

The Role & Your Freedom

You will be working closely with our technical team to take our existing platform to the next level. We already have a functional code-base, but as we scale, you will be the specialist responsible for our cloud infrastructure and security. You will get the freedom to:

Optimize & Scale: Take ownership of our backend and cloud hosting (SQL, Cloud Compute, S3) to ensure we can handle thousands of concurrent users.
Secure the Future: Lead our security strategy. From encryption to pentesting and red-teaming, you ensure that the "UTRY ID" is the most secure way to shop online.
Architect the Ecosystem: Influence how we integrate webhooks and data-flows as we roll out our upcomming features.

Who are you?

The Cloud Specialist: You have a proven track record with cloud hosting, SQL, and S3. You know how to manage and scale existing backend systems.
The White-Hat Mindset: You prioritize security and encryption. Experience with pentesting or red-teaming is a huge plus, we need someone who thinks like a defender.
Bilingual: You speak and write fluently in Danish and English.
Entrepreneurial: You are motivated by the mission and the upside of equity. You want to be a co-owner of a platform solving a 24-million-ton CO2 problem.
Flexible: You can work from our office in Aalborg, completely remotely or hybrid, whatever makes you most productive.

What we offer

Co-founder Status & Equity: A sstake in a startup with a validated product and a strong advisory board (including Bestseller and Sprii).
Technical Ownership: You aren't starting from scratch, but you are the boss of the cloud. You get to define how we build for the future.
Hybrid Compensation: While we are currently lean, we are open to discussing hybrid models of equity and future payment plans as we hit our commercial milestones.
Impact: A chance to solve one of the biggest problems in fashion using AI and smart data.

Imagine a world where the 'Size Chart', a relic of the 20th century, no longer exists. At UTRY, we are building a universal ecosystem for personalized digital fashion. Born at Aalborg University, our mission is to ensure the digital store adapts to the individual’s unique body, rather than forcing people to fit into static categories. We aren't just building a tool for brands; we are building an interactive, personalized experience for every shopper, where getting the perfect fit becomes the new global standard. We are tackling a massive, dual-sided problem. For the consumer, online shopping is a guessing game that leads to frustration and "fit-anxiety." For brands, this uncertainty results in 8,7 billion returned packages every year, where 53% of returns are due to poor fit. This cycle produces 24 million tons of CO2 annually, because costumers has to guess which size fits them. We saw this gap and realized that the industry doesn't need more complex 3D software; it needs a frictionless bridge between the buyer and the product. Our solution is built on smart synergy. Currently, we have launched our Virtual Try-On (VTO), which leverages generative AI to give shoppers a photorealistic view of garments on their own bodies. This provides the immediate visual confidence shoppers crave. Following closely behind is our Size Algorithm, designed to provide technical fit data to ensure the physical fit matches the visual one. By combining these into a single "UTRY ID," we are creating a cross-brand network where a user sets up their profile once and shops at every brand using UTRY with confidence. UTRY started because we did not fit into the standard size chart and had to order several sizes to find the correct size ourselves. As students at Aalborg University, we didn't just want to study the problem; we teamed up with a dedicated full-time crew to solve it. We are doing this because we believe that when you give consumers a personalized, engaging experience, the business value, higher conversions and lower returns, follows naturally. We are here to prove that what is best for the person is also what is best for the planet and the companies.
