Summary

We think businesses should be in the cloud

Not just because we can drive operational costs down and make things more stable, more available and safer, but also because being in the cloud means you get access to stuff that can give you the edge. Everyone talks about cool tech, but we know business too and we know how to get everything to fall into place for companies that weren't born in the cloud. In fact, we left our corporate careers (some of us have seen the industry change and grow for more than 20 years) and started kaskade.cloud because we know so many companies will benefit from this approach to hyperscale cloud.

AWS is our backbone, but the possibilities that technology brings to business is our lifeblood. Keep the lights on with as little effort as possible so that you can keep your eye on the ball and win your game.

Focus | Possibility | Trust

(These things light our fire!)

We believe that people should be mentored, encouraged, trusted and allowed to grow. Everyone is made for something, and we want to make sure the people we hire are doing that something. Those somethings include:

  • Architecting AWS environments
  • Migrating applications and databases to AWS
  • Tweaking and modifying apps and processes
  • Creating automation templates
  • Finding better ways to achieve what those old apps did
  • Working on security
  • Matching AWS services to business problems

So if you want to get businesses into the cloud, want to love what you do, like cutting edge technology and helping customers in the real world realize real benefits, and if you like a challenge, then this is the place for you
