The opportunity

incident. io is the AI software reliability platform trusted by engineering teams at Netflix, Etsy, and 2,000+ companies who can't afford downtime.

What you'll do

  • You take real ownership. You don't wait to be told what to fix, you see the: thing that's slowing everyone down and you go fix it.

  • You build tooling like a product engineer would. You think about the person: using it, not just whether it technically works.

  • You're genuinely great at observability. You don't just set up dashboards: because you're told to, you want to actually see what's happening in the system, and you get restless when you can't.

  • You've got a knack for unpicking confounding issues, the kind where the bug: could be in the app, the database, the load balancer, or a Terraform file, and you're the person who enjoys following the thread until you find it.

  • You care, properly, about making other engineers' lives better. The measure: of a good day for you isn't just "it works," it's "that was annoying for people, and now it isn't."

  • You keep half an eye on what's new in security, cloud, and developer: experience, not because you have to, but because you'd be reading about it anyway.

  • You're comfortable with high autonomy. Nobody's going to hand you a detailed: spec, you're trusted to figure out what needs doing and just do it.
