Jobs at Chenope

Chenope is a year old bootstrap that already has meaningful revenue. Our founders successfully bootstrapped their prior company, Cataphora, which took in $100M in revenue in its lifetime. We are likewise laser-focused on building a successful business before pursuing any kind of investment. Our name comes from the genus name of the black swan. We mean it in the sense of the Nicholas Taleb book on very low probability but very high impact events. Chenope combines counter-intelligence and investigative tradecraft with a hard core technology approach to analyze the people dimension of organizations. Is the morale high? Are the employees or members engaged? Are the leaders respected? Are the trends over time positive or negative? Our software scans the Web looking for relevant data in various forms; we also process internal corporate data if it is available. Any kind of organization is fair game, from street gangs and terrorist groupd to Fortune 1000 companies. We are not selling features or buzzwords, but analytical results that have real value to our customers. Because building a "real" business is our capitalization model, we have to deliver on our vision, not just promote it. Everything we do is grounded in real world data. Our team is geographically distributed, and we speak many languages. This is necessary in order to do what we do. Most organizations worth analyzing are after all global. If you want to work on really hard, data-driven problems and want to learn about building a business on the merits, there's simply no better place than Chenope.
