At Scalyr, we've built a log analysis and ops visibility tool that our users rave about, because it smashes expectations for performance and ease of use. Now it's time to spread the word. We offer the equity, influence, and fun of an early-stage company, with stability, great pay, and a low-stress culture. We have great backers, strong traction, and an 11-digit target market. I've built half a dozen startups, including Writely (aka Google Docs), and I can honestly say this is my favorite so far.
Frontend Engineer: we earn our keep by giving users unprecedentedly fast and easy tools for exploring vast amounts of operational data. That starts with our unique backend query engine, but it doesn't mean anything without an equally amazing frontend. We're building a brand-new web app that adds features while removing complexity, all with an eye to performance. As a ground-up rewrite, there's lots of opportunity for you to have a significant impact. If you care about user experience, enjoy great engineering, and want to join an experienced team where you can really stretch yourself, we'd love to hear from you.
Integration Engineer: an ops visibility tool is only as good as the data it collects. We pride ourselves on collecting everything from logs to system metrics to application metrics to API data, in the whatever environment our customers are using. If you enjoy constantly getting to play with new tools, come help us connect to... everything. You'll be playing around with software packages from Apache to Zookeeper, APIs from AWS to, er, Azure. Much of your work will involve adding modules to our Python-based agent. If you're interested, there's also room to help create dashboards and write guides to help engineers make sense of all the data that $PACKAGE_X generates.
DevOps Evangelist: if you're passionate about enlightened server operations, appreciate good tools, and would like the chance to bring a great tool to great customers, we should talk. We've had success with meaty posts like https://www.scalyr.com/community/guides/zen-and-the-art-of-s.... and http://blog.scalyr.com/2014/08/99-99-uptime-9-5-schedule/. Join us and you'll have the chance to write meaningful articles, engage with fellow engineers, and spread the word on a great product. If you have an engineering background, experience in operations, and a love of communicating, drop me a line!
