👋 About CloudForecast 
Hello! Francois here, the technical co-founder of CloudForecast. Along with my co-founder, Tony, we're building an ambitious, profitable, and (mostly) bootstrapped SaaS startup that helps companies eliminate wasted costs on AWS. 
 
We started this journey in 2017, got into the TinySeed Accelerator program last year and we’re ready to make our second software engineering hire to help us move fast on product and features related to AWS costs. This is an exciting time for us since we're growing, but that also means we need to continually meet the demands of our users to help them solve fun and complex AWS cost problems. 
 
In terms of our culture and what we value, we try not to take ourselves seriously and have fun building CloudForecast. We understand that we all have lives outside of work, and we want to ensure there is a good work-life balance. However, that also comes with fully trusting each other, communicating well, delivering what we say, and taking full ownership of projects. 
 
⛈️ We really need this hire to bring creative ideas, grow and mentor our team and take ownership of projects. 
 
In addition, we want to make sure our personalities and work styles mesh and compliment each other. That will be just as important as the technical skills you bring to the table. After all, we will be talking and working with each other every day. We're looking for good people who care deeply about the work they produce. 
 
💯 Perks and What we can offer 
  • Possible future paid-off site opportunity (when it's safe to do so!) 
  • 10 full vacation days per calendar year. 
  • Paid time off on all major national holidays (based on countries calendar) 
  • Work directly with CloudForecast founders 
  • Exposure to other parts of the business and ability to shape the direction of a fast-growing company. 
  • Employee stock option available 
  • Employee #4 

Hiring Process 
  • 30-minute screener interview 
  • 30-minute CEO interview 
  • 45-60 minute CTO technical interview 
  • Technical assessment (time will be compensated for) 
  • 30-minute interview with the engineering team
