What you likely need
Denis is a serial founder with deep data engineering expertise, currently building Cloud Avenue, an early-stage data infrastructure startup. His strongest asset is 23+ years of hands-on technical experience at companies like SpaceX, Fox, and GoodRx, which gives him strong domain credibility. The immediate priority is establishing traction and raising a pre-seed or seed round to grow beyond the current 2-person team.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- fundraisingLeverage your SpaceX, Fox, and GoodRx credentials to build a warm intro list for pre-seed investors focused on data infrastructure and developer tooling.
- positioningSharpen Cloud Avenue's ICP messaging around dbt/Snowflake/Looker users — your LinkedIn description already names these tools, so double down on that niche to stand out in a crowded data observability market.
- hiringWith only 2 employees, prioritize hiring a first GTM or sales-engineer hire who can run outbound to data engineering teams while you focus on product.
- introsApply to Y Combinator — Cloud Avenue's developer-tooling angle and your technical depth fit YC's current batch priorities, and a YC stamp would dramatically accelerate fundraising.
- tacticalPublish open-source tooling or a public demo repo on GitHub to build developer credibility and inbound interest for Cloud Avenue's product.
- positioningWrite publicly (LinkedIn, Substack, or HN) about your Super Bowl 2020 streaming infrastructure and SpaceX database work — these are compelling proof points that will attract both customers and investors.
- tacticalLaunch Cloud Avenue on Product Hunt to generate early developer buzz and validate the real-time dbt impact analysis use case with a broader audience.
