The issue is that instead of passing findParam and findUsers as arguments 
to async.waterfall, you're calling them and passing the results (which is 
undefined).

You want:

async.waterfall(
        [
            async.apply(findParam, user.key),  // <-- this will pass 
user.key as the 1st argument to findParam, and async will pass the callback
            findUsers // <-- waterfall automatically passes the results 
from findParam's callback(err, user, param) to findUsers as parameters 
(except err)
        ], callback);

I hope that's helpful.
