Kloudio is on a mission to empower business teams with the full spectrum of analytics capabilities. We believe that we can redefine how technical teams enable business users to get more direct access to the data they need to automate mundane activities in data preparation, reporting, and synchronization. We see this as a $1B opportunity driven due to the fact that every business's data is extremely fragmented, messy, and in silos. 

 

In the last year alone, we’ve doubled our customer count and have repeatedly gotten major brands via our Sales motion. In order to support this level of growth, Kloud.io is looking for a VP of Engineering to lead our Engineering organization both in the US and India (a local Director is the day to day management over the India team). If you have rapidly scaled the people, process, and patterns for high quality engineering execution, we are looking for you. This role will report directly to Sathish Raju, our CTO co-founder. 

 

 

What you will do:

 

• Lead our overall Engineering organization and manage, coach, and support a team of engineers and managers
• Lead with a customer first orientation for our products and a caring people focused orientation for our teams
• Rapidly scale the engineering organization by hiring and retaining exceptional talent and designing organizations, systems, and tools to help us scale effectively
• Establish a world class engineering culture dedicated to craft, quality, and impact
• Bring a high level of technical expertise, guidance, and decision making to all areas of the organization including infrastructure, architecture, apps, plugins, pipelines, and devops. Establish and execute on our long term technical plans.
• Work closely with Product, Design, and GTM leadership on strategic planning, product development, and execution
• Work closely with our executive team on technology alliances and strategic partnerships

 

Who you'll work with:

 

At Kloud.io, you'll join a high-performing and highly-empathetic team of people who proudly work on fulfilling our mission. Our culture of customer-first, thoughtful teammates keeps work creative, stretching, and rewarding.

 

• Delight Customers: Without customers, there is no Kloudio. The top priority for each one of us at Kloudio is to delight customers, and provide them with value that is distinctly ours.

• Move Quickly: We win by being more nimble than the competition. Everything we do – building, measuring, learning, iterating – is with pace and a bias for action. 
• Be Resourceful: We do more with less. By thinking creatively, operating efficiently, and minimizing waste, we maximize the effectiveness of our tools, our team, and the value we create.
• Redefine Possible: Unicorns are not conventional. In order to build the next great software company, we must consistently go beyond the ordinary and challenge the idea of what’s possible. 
• Inspire Trust: Our success is rooted in honesty and transparency. We communicate with candor, set clear expectations, and hold each other accountable for our actions.
• Champion Diversity: Everyone’s voice is respected at Kloudio. We learn from each other, we collaborate, and through the shared experiences of a diverse team, we will achieve our goals.
