New Funding, New Roles
Each week, we spotlight newly funded startups and their open roles. Here’s a quick peek at what they’re building and who they need:
🇫🇷 Steerlab
Pre-Seed - $1.9M; Investors: Dreamcraft VC, Heartfelt Capital, Lumière AI Ventures, Station F
What it does: Building a cutting-edge AI platform that automates responses to Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and security questionnaires. This helps PreSales and security teams enhance their efficiency by automating 80% of the time spent on responses, ultimately maximizing their success in winning more deals.
Open positions: AI Engineer, Software Engineer, Marketing & Lead Generation Intern - Paris
🇺🇸 Cortex
Series C - $60M; Investors: Scale Venture Partners, World Innovation Labs, Cross Creek, Alpha Square Group, IVP, Sequoia, Y Combinator
What it does: Cortex is an Internal Developer Portal (IDP) that addresses a crucial gap: engineers lack a unified system of record. While sales, IT, and HR have their dedicated platforms, engineers often rely on outdated spreadsheets.
Cortex solves this with a comprehensive IDP that centralizes software tracking, ownership, and dependencies. It enhances productivity by bringing order without disrupting development. Key features include:
Catalog: A centralized hub for tracking software components, ownership, and dependencies.
Standards & Alignment: Tools for measuring quality and ensuring adherence to organizational standards.
Self-Service: Simplified developer interfaces for streamlined service creation and management.
