What the job involves

Kentik has a rapidly growing Product Engineering team. This team focuses on all of Kentik’s user-facing interfaces, both visual and programmatic. We aim to build simple, easy to use interfaces; but simple for users typically means engineered complexity under the hood

We have built a team of world-class engineers, network experts, and technology thought leaders in a remote-friendly culture from day one
A high degree of autonomy in developing state-of-the-art UIs
Work with engineering leadership to enhance the design and architecture of our product offerings
Participate in peer code review
Work on high-visibility, challenging engineering problems
Collaborate with your team, engineering leaders, and product managers - as well as other development teams and our technical operations group
Our core data engine and platform are primarily written in Go; We use Node.js + Express for application serving, and React as our primary UI framework; We also use some JS and Python for tooling/scripting; In addition to our own database, we use Postgres, Kafka, Mysql, and Redis; Internal and public APIs expose both rest/json and gRPC endpoints; Haproxy, Envoy for API traffic routing and balancing; Github for source control, PRs, issues; Jenkins for automated builds

Our take

The rise in internet use has resulted in an often unmanageable amount of network traffic across websites, data centers, and most recently cloud services. The resulting mass of information from this is problematic to interpret and thus difficult to use for troubleshooting and engagement insights.

Kentik provides an integrated network monitoring dashboard for enterprises that helps provide visual data illustrations and insights based on traffic. This allows administrators to identify bottlenecks in their networks, whilst providing opportunities to provide cyber protection and monitor customer experiences.

The Kentik dashboard’s approach to network management is unique due to its focus on the visualization of information. This allows insights regarding network limitations and bottlenecks to be understandable and manageable to enterprises regardless of whether staff has knowledge in networking data.
