Job details

Senior Software Engineer, Cribl Lake

Cribl does differently. 

What does that mean? It means we are a serious company that doesn’t take itself too seriously; and 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. As a remote-first company we believe in empowering our employees to do their best work, wherever they are. 

As the data engine for IT and Security many of the biggest names in the most demanding industries trust Cribl to solve their most pressing data needs. Ready to do the best work of your career? Join the herd and unlock your opportunity.

Cribl’s LogStream unlocks the value of all machine data in ways that were previously not possible by providing users a new level of observability, intelligence and control over their real-time data.  We are looking for a Principal Engineer to help build our core data platform which ingests, enriches, transforms, shapes, and routes data from and to numerous types of third party systems.  Some may say Cribl’s greatest accomplishment thus far is having our software deployed in some of the largest organizations in the world processing up to petabytes 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 Principal Engineer at Cribl, you will help set the technical direction for LogStream by working closely with other product stakeholders to help identify, design, develop, and deliver products that delight our customers.  Additionally, you will provide technical and thought leadership to the team in order to continually improve our technologies, tools, and processes.

  • Ensure product features are working as expected by creating robust test plans paired with comprehensive automated tests
  • Coach and mentor junior developers 
  • Evangelize our innovation and engage our users by contributing to internal and external blogs related to the products that you help develop
