We’re searching for a Chief Operating Officer / Chief Commercial Officer to join a revolutionary DBaas startup. They’ve pioneered a smart database system designed to handle very complex and interconnected data. This makes it easier for developers to build applications that require advanced data management. Instead of using multiple types of databases, they combine the best features of all databases into one, making data handling simpler and more efficient. This means even the most complex and interconnected datasets can be managed with ease.


They have developed a new and innovative type of database designed to meet the current needs and challenges of modern software development. They successfully launched their DBaaS several months ago, attracting 500+ active users. The monetisation potential is therefore expected to be considerable.
