What We Do

It’s getting harder and harder for developers to deliver a consistent experience to their users. That’s why we’re working on making the internet faster for everyone. This isn’t a job for just anyone—we’re looking for people who are passionate about performance of all kinds to help us analyze, visualize, and decypher mountains of performance data.

Hard Problems:
We Solve ’em

  • Tracing web requests Distributed tracing is a tough problem that requires solving interesting challenges in instrumentation and graph processing.

    Our technology, based on work done at Google (one of our investors), propagates a unique identifier throughout the life of a web request and reports back detailed information on performance and path.
  • Real-time processing Seconds after a request hits a customer website, performance data is incorporated in our charts. We’re processing web-scale data--terabytes of it per day--at web speed.

    Our customers rely on us to keep the data up-to-the-second so they can quickly solve their infrastructure problems; we rely on our code.
  • Make analytics smarter We’re way beyond averages—innovative visualizations and interfaces, as well as the engineering to enable their smarts, are the way we deliver value to customers.

    If you think averages and percentiles are just the tip of the iceberg, we'd love to talk.
