Work at Zoorik
Help build Coral and Amoeba, the software that reduces cloud cost on Azure and AWS.
What you will build
Two products that change live systems, safely.
Our values
Collaboration
We get further together than alone.
We ask“Tell us about a launch, an incident or a deal where you helped another team, or asked one for help. What did each of you do?”
Be kind
Share what you learn
Say thanks, and say what for
Give feedback early
Assume positive intent
No ego
Fix the system, not the person
Input is not consensus
Results for customers
We reduce our customers’ cloud bills without breaking anything.
We ask“Tell us about something you built, ran or sold that saved a customer money or time. How did you measure it?”
Measure impact, not activity
Know the people we serve
Use what we build
Own it end to end
Act when a step can be undone
Disagree, then commit
Ask for help early
Efficiency
We spend time and money on what matters, and we do it once.
We ask“Tell us about a time you cut something that cost more than it gave: a process, a tool, a meeting or a piece of a system.”
Write it down
Choose boring solutions
Look it up, then write it up
Respect each other’s time
Spend money like it is yours
Be a manager of one
Accept mistakes
Diversity, inclusion and belonging
Good ideas come from everywhere.
We ask“Tell us about a time someone who saw it differently changed what you built or how you did it.”
Asynchronous by default
Ask someone who sees it differently
Interview everyone the same way
“Fit” is not a reason
Use names and words with care
Family and friends first
Speak up
Iteration
Small steps add up faster than big plans.
We ask“Tell us about a change you made in small, safe steps. What did the first step teach you?”
Ship the smallest useful change
Don’t wait
Everything is in draft
Make a proposal
Most doors swing both ways
Small steps, safe steps
Keep changes reviewable
Transparency
We share by default. It builds trust.
We ask“Tell us about a mistake that reached a customer or a live system. How did you tell people, and what changed afterwards?”
Public where we can
Say why, not just what
One source of truth
Say when you change your mind
Raise problems early
Be direct, and kind
Some things stay private
How we work
Remote first
Work from where you work best.
Written down
Plans and decisions live in writing.
Asynchronous by default
Most work needs no meeting.
Results, not hours
What shipped, not when you were online.
How we hire
Six steps, all remote.
