Chief Technical Officer Full-Time Paris

Forest Admin helps Companies run their internal operations. We provide business teams with a back office tailored to their specific processes and needs. It is a "back office as a service" allowing any web-based company to fast-track the design, development, and maintenance of their admin user interfaces.

Technically speaking, Forest connects to your database and analyses your data models to automatically generate customizable admin interfaces on which business teams can work.

How big is the market? All apps need a back office, which means we can provide value to virtually… all web-related businesses! We’re currently powering the operations of some of the fastest-growing companies (e.g. Qonto, Melio, Finicity, Carbon Health…) and are looking to accelerate our expansion.

Forest Admin was co-founded by Hexa (formerly eFounders) the startup studio that launched startups like Front, Aircall, Mention, Spendesk, Textmaster, and Mailjet.
