We help people use and run Kubernetes their way, anywhere. Led by a team that has built products and companies successfully before and is doing it again; together with talented team members and industry-leading investors backing us up, we are taking K8s to the moon and beyond.

- Ensure compliance with financial reporting standards and assist in due diligence efforts for fundraising, M&A, or potential IPO planning.
What You’ll Need to Be Successful
