We are committed to an open, transparent, and inclusive workplace. We value the unique backgrounds of every team member and believe in fostering a culture of respect, curiosity, and innovation. We support each other’s growth and success—and take the well-being of our colleagues seriously. We encourage everyone to find a healthy balance that affords them a productive, happy life, wherever they choose to live.

We bring together engineers who love building core infrastructure, obsess over developer experience, and want to make complex systems scalable, observable, and reliable.
