In this case, Infrastructure Cost is part of Cost of Revenue (similar to COGS or Cost of Goods Sold).

Cost of Revenue is defined on Page 61:

> Cost of revenue primarily consists of expenses related to providing our products to customers, including payments to our third-party cloud infrastructure providers for hosting our software, personnel-related expenses for operations and global support, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation, payment processing fees, information technology, depreciation and amortization related to the amortization of acquired intangibles and internal-use software and other overhead costs such as allocated facilities.

> We intend to continue to invest additional resources in our platform infrastructure and our customer support and success organizations to expand the capability of our platform and ensure that our customers are realizing the full benefit of our platform and products. The level, timing and relative investment in our infrastructure could affect our cost of revenue in the future.

Cost of Revenue and infrastructure costs are discussed on Pages 64 and 65:

> Cost of revenue increased by $21.3 million, or 115%, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $17.9 million in third-party cloud infrastructure hosting and software costs, $1.0 million of depreciation and amortization, $1.6 million in personnel expenses as a result of increased headcount, $0.4 million of credit card processing fees and other fees, and $0.4 million in allocated overhead costs as a result of an increase in overall costs necessary to support the growth of the business and related infrastructure.

Tip: Search the S-1 for "infrastructure" or "cost of revenue" to find other mentions of this.

If you're a great full stack engineer with wonderful business & design sense, I'd love to chat. Email me at [email protected] with "HN Who's Hiring" in the subject.

Things that make us different: Profitable, infinite runway, 85%+ owned by founders and employees, no VC (we raised less than $200k 6 years ago, but have grown profitably since then), amazing 8 person full time non-technical team (Sales, Ops, Customer & Caterer acquisition, photographers), small engineering team, best in industry unit economics, very strong 5 year history of increasing revenue and profit growth, flexible and experimental view about travel & work.

Looking to hire 3 people immediately who think hard work and excellent software are the most powerful tools to dominate markets. We're particularly looking for really strong front end candidates with strong design sense.

The last time we posted in this thread we ended up hiring @tgriesser (https://github.com/tgriesser) as Engineer #1 so you’ll be working directly with the two of us. We’re interested in building a team with a wide variety of skills and viewpoints and are open to all sorts of expertise. Right now we would favor engineers with particularly modern front end / design / UX sensibilities, a strong history of growth hacking, or experience leading multiple successful product features.
