ABOUT US
We are a well-funded Series B ($82MM) high growth startup headquartered in Seattle, with employees throughout the United States and EMEA. Most of our roles are remote-first and we offer a diverse, respectful, fun, and collaborative environment to work in. We're currently in the start-up sweet spot with sufficiently low risk and yet still the potential of massive upside.
At Edge Delta, we are building the world’s most scalable and effortless observability platform allowing our customers to analyze their data as it’s created, where it’s created. Embracing the freedom to decouple where you analyze your data from where it’s stored, this unique take on DevOps, Security, and SRE lets you consume and analyze outputs (logs, metrics, events, traces, telemetry) with orders of magnitude more insights.
Our customers escape the constraints and architectural limitations of traditional centralized systems by utilizing our lightweight and ultra-fast agent, distributed architecture, and stream processing capabilities. Ultimately, Edge Delta provides the scalability the market needs without previous technical or financial limitations, unlocking limitless data analysis, faster intelligence, and automated anomaly detection.
If the prospect of creating a category and bringing a fundamentally brand new technology to the market sounds interesting, Edge Delta is the place where you can be given the opportunity and autonomy to shape the future of observability.
