Gremlin is on a mission to make the internet more reliable and resilient. Pioneering the new discipline of chaos engineering, Gremlin helps leading companies build resiliency into their increasingly complex software systems.

We’re building simple-to-use tools that help engineering teams safely and securely test their systems for weaknesses, fix problems before they become outages, and ultimately increase uptime.

More resilient systems translate to more sales for ecommerce businesses (even on the busiest of days), better uptime for SaaS businesses with SLAs, and fewer late nights on-call handling high-sev incidents.

About Gremlin

Our founders, Kolton Andrus and Matthew Fornaciari, lived and breathed incidents, on-call, and Chaos Engineering at Amazon and Netflix. As “Call Leaders” they were responsible for guiding teams through analyzing and rectifying global outages. After a decade of developing and advocating Chaos Engineering internally, they captured their learnings in the Gremlin product and launched the company in 2016.

Since then we’ve built an incredible team of industry veterans and people eager to learn and bring their knowledge over from other companies. We’re backed by top tier investors Index Ventures, Amplify Partners, and Redpoint Ventures. Our customers love us, and we’re thrilled to be a partner in their success. 

At Gremlin we value:

• Work-life Balance - Our product helps engineers spend less time on incidents and more time doing what they enjoy. We expect the same for our employees. We offer a generous PTO policy, high quality benefits, and location flexibility for most positions.
• Clear Communication - Our communication is direct, concise, and above all honest.
• Customer First - We work diligently to ensure that what we deliver is of the utmost quality and empowers our customers to be successful.
• Experimentation - Employees challenge assumptions, experiment boldly, and quickly adopt beneficial ideas while abandoning unsuccessful processes.
• Ownership - We have skin in the game, master all aspects of our role, and take responsibility for our successes and failures.
• Scrappiness - Employees use the right resources for the task at hand. Excess and deficiency are equally avoided.
• Community - We take pride in building and bolstering all facets of our community, both internal and external to the company. We support one another and help others to succeed.
