What the job involves
- Platform Engineering at Cribl is responsible for creating and maintaining the foundational software infrastructure that supports our entire ecosystem of products

- We are currently seeking a Sr Staff Software Engineer for our Core Platform team
- You will work closely with an existing team of engineers and product managers to help identify, design, develop, and deliver products that delight our customers

Our take
In a bid to simplify big data analytics, Cribl offers a data observability pipeline which allows users to reduce low value data, improve routing and gain more data context on one interface.
As companies now collect more and more data from frequently scattered sources, its useability and reliability comes into question. By offering an observability service, Cribl allows users to maintain the health of their data systems by monitoring, tracking and troubleshooting issues.
Cribl's main challenge will be competing with the likes of Observe and Edge Delta. However, Cribl has raised impressive funds that should accelerate its transition from a limited tool vendor to a fully-fledged observability suite. The company also boasts surpassing $100 million in annual recurring revenue, having grown this from $1 million in less than four years.
