Company mission
To make observability viable for any organization, giving their customers visibility and control while maximizing value from existing tools, with pricing that is accessible for all.
Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for people who love to get stuff done, and laugh a bit along the way
- We’re growing rapidly - looking for collaborative, curious, and motivated team members who are passionate about putting customers first
- If you enjoy diving deep into new technologies, understanding how they work, collaborating with other talented engineers, and slinging code to bind them together, this role might be the right one for you
- Demonstrated experience integrating with third party applications, libraries, and APIs
- Strong knowledge of data structures, algorithms, operating systems, and distributed systems
- Experience with using and developing REST APIs
- Experience interacting with and building on cloud based platforms such as AWS, Azure, GCP, etc
- Experience with authorization and authentication standards such as Oauth2, OpenID Connect, LDAP and SAML is a plus
- Comfort with significant research and discovery before coding begins
- Demonstrated ability to build robust systems in the face of uncertainty
- Experience with Agile processes and rapid iterative development
- Strong sense of ownership with focus on high quality and high performing deliverables
- Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written; ability to explain complex technical topics to both internal and external stakeholders with ease and in remote/distributed environments
- Insatiable curiosity – one of our core values is a tenet to being a great engineer at Cribl. Be willing and eager to learn new technologies and products built by other companies
What the job involves
- Cribl Stream provides users a new level of observability, intelligence and control over their real-time data
- Some may say our greatest accomplishment thus far is having our software deployed in some of the largest organizations in the world processing 100s of TB to PB of IT & Security data
- Others may attribute that to our massive amount of goat gifs that we’ve harvested from the Internet. It’s difficult to know for sure
- As a Senior Integrations Engineer at Cribl, you will build the software components that enable us to collect and send data between closed and open source systems
- This role is equal parts research and development
- In this role, you will join a team of skilled engineers committed to shipping the highest quality software and ensuring our customers’ satisfaction
- Develop features that integrate Cribl’s data stream processing engine with data systems such as Splunk, Elastic Search, Kafka, AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage
- Rapidly develop subject matter expertise in a diverse set of 3rd party technologies by provisioning, building, and configuring all systems and/or accounts necessary to facilitate the R&D process
- Design, develop, test, and maintain clear, concise, and robust code that produces the desired outcomes for our customers
- Develop expert level knowledge of software development using NodeJS and TypeScript (and sometimes even C++!), and be willing to become exposed to and work with Node internals from time to time
- Ensure product features are working as expected by creating robust test plans paired with comprehensive automated tests and writing integration tests
- Collaborate with other engineers, product managers, UX designers, and business teams to translate feature specifications into implementable code
- Work closely with peers on your team by providing feedback on feature design and code reviews
- Contribute and be involved in a weekly 24/7 support on call rotation
- Initiative and drive to help the greater team, even if it's outside your job description
- Evangelize our innovation and engage our users by contributing to internal and external community, documentation, and blogs related to the products that you help develop
- This position will require stand-by, on-call, or off-hours duties
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.
