About LogRocket

Founded in 2016, LogRocket's goal is to make every experience on the web as perfect as possible. We're solving a huge challenge for product managers and developers - understanding the user experience. LogRocket is the first system that gives these teams complete visibility into their customer's experience using their web apps - through pixel-perfect replays of user sessions and clear insight into logs, errors, and network activity.  We've already attracted an elite roster of over 2,800 customers including ClassPass, Capital One, Cisco, and Rippling, just to name a few. Our focus is on building software with care and craftsmanship and our engineering blog posts offer a taste of that.

Backed by top investors such as Matrix Partners, Battery Ventures, and Delta-V Capital, we've raised $55M in funding and we're eager to bring talented people onboard to support our growth. We're on a mission to improve society's experience with software and that's where you come in.

Responsibilities (Sample Projects)

  • Design a system to automatically detect the most common user paths across millions of events
  • Implement a search backend that allows users to search in real time across billions of log entries
  • Build a machine learning pipeline that automatically detects bugs in our users' apps
  • Automate database scaling to improve operating cost while maintaining the ability to respond to traffic spikes
  • Build a system that automatically recommends integrations for customers based on their toolset

Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience in a full stack or backend development role, preferably with a SaaS company
  • Experience with state of the art cloud technologies, including architectural principles, specific tools of the trade, and their strengths and weaknesses
  • Hands-on experience building and redesigning highly available distributed systems
  • Familiarity with modern Javascript-based applications and frameworks
  • Experience in development environments with demanding scalability or availability requirements
  • A strong collaborator who is transparent about progress on tasks, seeks feedback early and often, works effectively with the team to deliver on engineering estimates
  • Acts as a mentor to junior engineers and provides coaching to upskill other team members
  • If you don’t meet all of these, we still encourage you to apply. We believe that code is code, regardless of language, and learning different tools is part of joining a new company

Benefits & Perks

  • Catered lunch and an impressive array of your favorite snacks (healthy AND non-healthy!) 
  • Unlimited vacation policy
  • Health, Dental, Vision benefits, 401k, commuter benefits
  • Generous stock options
  • Regular team outings and activities (from boat rides to paintball, we’ll try anything!)

LogRocket is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

LogRocket will consider sponsoring visas for applicants in the US that need work authorization.
