What the job involves
- Cribl Inc. is seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to lead a remote-first, diverse, and cross-functional team of engineers dedicated to our mission: unlocking the value of all machine data
- At Cribl, we empower users with unprecedented observability, intelligence, and control over their real-time data. Our software is trusted by some of the largest organizations in the world, processing hundreds of terabytes to petabytes of IT and security data every day
- In this role, you will guide a talented team of engineers committed to delivering high-quality software on a consistent cadence
- As a fully remote position reporting to the Engineering organization, your leadership will play a pivotal role in ensuring both technical excellence and team growth
- Your primary responsibilities will include providing mentorship, driving project execution, and removing obstacles that may hinder progress
- This is a hands-on leadership role, requiring deep collaboration with developers, participation in design and requirements discussions, and regular engagement with the latest builds
- You’ll be expected to become an expert in your team’s products and services, offering technical insights and strategic direction
- Build, mentor, and lead high-performing, cross-functional engineering teams dedicated to developing large-scale machine data processing applications
- Champion technical excellence by setting high standards for design, code quality, and system robustness

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.
