    The AeroFS Story

    AeroFS was founded in a desire to build a new type of enterprise collaboration: One that balances the needs of IT administrators with the needs of employees for easy to use, user-friendly software.

    We launched AeroFS to solve the problem of collaboration on sensitive/important documents. Although public cloud solutions are popular these days, many companies cannot (for legal, compliance, or security reasons) use the "public cloud".
    Four years later, We have some of the worlds most impressive brands as our customers. Financial services companies. Innovative car manufactures. Professional Services companies. Telecoms. You name it.

    But our story is just beginning. Our team is small -- today we're only about twenty people -- and we need your help.

    Our Culture

    Technology is what we do. Our team loves solving hard problems; we are comprised of people who have previously worked at companies such as Google, Apple, Salesforce, Sun Microsystems, ARM, and Sandvine. They are experts in security and in building scalable distributed systems. We use technology to help our users share data securely, efficiently and affordably.

    Customers are the reason we do it. We believe in making customer feedback an integral part of the engineering process, from informing our development priorities to providing timely technical support. We also believe customers shouldn't need to choose between privacy and usability.

    Agile is how we do it. Just as our customers' data management needs are ever-evolving, AeroFS constantly iterates to deliver the best performance and best user experience possible. We ship new software weekly, providing users with the latest features, improvements, and fixes. Agility allows us to adjust our roadmap without costly pivots.

    How we know you're a good fit

    • You are passionate and excited about what you do.
    • You feel a sense of ownership over your work. You don't consider issues "someone else's problem".
    • You care about customers deeply and empathize with their problems. You're patient and understanding even in the face of unexpected use cases and unglamorous tech stacks.
    • You want to solve problems and build stuff.
    • You want to wear a panoply of hats. For example, as an engineer, you're interested in discussing and tackling issues related to user experience, market fit, or security implications—not just your "specialty".
    • You are team-oriented. You consider supporting your colleagues in doing their best work as time well spent. In return, you're able to ask for and receive help from others when you need it.
    • You're not opposed to doing the heavy lifting. (Sometimes quite literally, when it's time to rearrange the desks and couches.)
