Staff Software Engineer, Search - Frontend
Why You'll Love This Role
Are you excited about enabling customers to find, analyze, and visualize their operational data, no matter where it lives, regardless of format or storage medium? Do you enjoy data visualization, performant and scalable user interfaces, query languages, and working on cutting edge technologies?
Cribl Search flips observability on its head by distributing queries to where your data already lives and aggregating the results - no more expensive data replication, centralized aggregation, megaIOPS+petabyte storage, or kilocore+terabyte hosts required to see what’s going on in your deployed environments. Want to find specific events, trace an execution, identify a threat, or graph metric trends from (ex.) data stored in EBS volumes, Cribl Edge nodes, S3 buckets, Azure blob stores, containers, RDBMSes, data lakes, or even a custom datastore? How about being able to do that from a single pane, regardless of heterogeneous storage / location / hosting / on-disk format? That’s what Cribl Search enables, and we think it’s a game-changer for helping Cribl become the data engine for IT and security.
Cribl is looking for a front-end focused Staff Software Engineer to collaborate on a remote-first, diverse, inclusive, cross-functional team of software developers as we build the Cribl Search user experience. You will play a central role in designing and developing user interfaces and visualizations that are scalable, robust, and user-friendly. This is an ideal role for anyone who is passionate about building high-performance web applications in a dynamic and collaborative environment.
On top of it all, you will have fun! Cribl strives to be a great place to work for everyone.

If You Got It, We Want It

Experience developing interfaces for secure and scalable services (e.g. RESTful API, RPC)
Experience implementing secure web development practices and performance optimization
Experience using assertion frameworks and tools to automate regression tests (e.g. Playwright, CodeceptJS, Mocha, Cypress, Jest)
Experience with advanced software development in large-scale, highly available, distributed systems
Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written; able to explain complex technical topics to both internal and external stakeholders with ease and in remote/distributed environments
Preferred Qualifications

No fear! Speak your mind
Good jokes, or maybe better, bad jokes
A love for goats
