Role
Who you are

What the job involves
- We are looking for a Director of Engineering to lead Cribl Stream, a remote-first, diverse and cross-functional team of Engineers responsible for unlocking the machine data that fuels our platform.
- This is a fully remote, hands-on leadership role where you will balance responsibilities that span people management while staying closely involved in the design, development, testing and release of our products
- Your primary role is to help your team reach its maximum potential through mentorship and project direction; thus helping the team overcome any challenges they encounter
- Build, coach, mentor and grow a cross functional scrum team of exceptional engineers adept at building large-scale machine data processing applications
- Set a bar for technical excellence in product development with focus on design, robustness, and quality of code
- Lead the team in driving and implementing projects from idea formulation, design, implementation, and testing

- Establish a strong partnership with product management and product operations team members to refine, prioritize and execute the product roadmap
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.
