Cloud cost management is one of the biggest challenges organizations face today. As cloud adoption continues to accelerate, so do the complexities and costs associated with it — and macroeconomic conditions only increase pressure to prove cloud efficiency. That’s why we built CloudZero: a SaaS platform at the intersection of next-generation cloud cost management and FinOps. CloudZero ingests billing and usage data from all cloud, SaaS, and PaaS providers, organizes it in real time according to our customers’ business structures, lets customers view it at any level of time or resource granularity, and ultimately empowers them to make more informed business decisions.

Since our founding in 2016, our mission has been to make efficient innovation a reality for every cloud-driven organization. At CloudZero, we believe every engineering decision is a buying decision, yet the cost conversation often bypasses the engineers who drive those determinations. To solve this, we’ve built a dynamic, single-page application that answers the complex, data-heavy questions every cloud-based organization needs to ask if they want to grow their company profitably.

To date, we’ve raised over $52 million from leading venture capital firms across the country. We’re solving problems of massive scale, business importance, and complexity in a space that needs it more than ever. We’re growing rapidly and would love for you to be a part of it!

Our engineering team values lifelong learning and holding a growth mindset. A core part of our culture is inclusiveness, and we believe great teams are made up of people from diverse backgrounds, and with that in mind, we are a fully remote company with employees all over the US. We’re growing at a fast rate, and are looking for more people with a passion for solving hard problems using cloud based solutions. We are organized into small, tight-knit teams of developers, and using Kanban flow, we collaboratively design, build, validate, ship, and maintain customer-facing features.

We’re looking for someone to join our cross-functional team who’s focused on finding cost savings and unexpected spend for our customers, while building a delightful workflow to track and manage those opportunities to save. Our platform ingests huge amounts of data from varied sources, and this team is constantly innovating to find the next best way to use that data to deliver value to our customers. If you like collaborating with a cross-functional team and solving tricky data & architecture problems at scale, this could be a great fit for you.

You will:

• Design, build and maintain APIs, services, and systems for our main application.
• Build to scale as we bring in users with larger datasets and bigger organizations.
• Write readable code that is easy to maintain and extend.
• Collaborate with other engineers on your team to build features that solve real customer problems.
• Help improve our engineering processes and system to ensure we have a group that can move fast and iterate quickly, giving everyone agency, ownership, and ability to impact the success of the company.



Requirements

• You enjoy and have 5+ years of experience building APIs and complex backend systems in the cloud.
• You have experience managing and manipulating data at scale.
• You have a passion for building and delivering high-quality software. Our backend code is in Python, so you’ll have to be comfortable with Python.
• You are comfortable working 9-5 EST - we have a fair amount of flexibility for people to get their work done whenever works for them, but our core hours are Eastern Timezone.
• You are passionate about design patterns and pragmatically applying theory into practice when architecting out systems and code.
• You enjoy working with cross-functional teams, synthesizing feedback and research into a well polished product.
