Kentik Careers

“Kentik is a truly unique place to work. There’s no shortage of network experts, happy to impart knowledge and help at a moment’s notice, which genuinely makes running our content strategy a dream come true. Beyond the technical expertise, this is a group of welcoming and kind people who really care about each other. When transparency and empathy start at the very top of a company, it’s easy to see how it’s adopted across the organization. Plus, we’re building the best network observability platform on earth, so that’s pretty rad, too.”

“One thing I love about working at Kentik is the people. With my job, I get to work with a variety of folks across the company and I’m continually amazed with both their breadth of knowledge and their willingness to share it. I ask a lot of questions (I have to for my job), and they’re more than patient with me, some going even deeper into the subjects if I’m curious about why something is the way it is. I absolutely adore and respect the people with whom I work. That’s why I work here.”

“The leadership at Kentik has allowed and encouraged me to spend time with my family rather than feeling like work and family are in conflict. And the level of transparency within the company from the CEO down is refreshing and makes me feel integral to what’s going on here.” Read Steven’s Employee Spotlight.

“Kentik offers me a rare opportunity to feel connected with the work and people, despite working remotely. The camaraderie extends across borders and it’s a great feeling to work with team players on a daily basis. From mountain biking in the Sedona desert with some of them to working on customer deals … the fun never ends. It helps that my customers love Kentik and our technology and reinforce this with me often.”

“What I love about my role at Kentik is the ability to deliver innovative solutions that bring teams together. I work with a passionate group of people who value curiosity, learning, and trust. Kentik encourages individual growth, diverse perspectives, and work/life balance within the company culture. The team makes every effort to reduce the challenges of remote working with engaging team meetings, interactive learning resources, social channels, and opportunities to travel and collaborate in person.”

“One thing that I love about Kentik and the culture of the company (aside from the fact that everyone is focused on creating the best product we can for our customers) is that people care deeply about each other, our fellow employees, and our families, too. And this is a top-down thing!” Read Aaron’s blog post about the Kentik wellness benefit.

“What I am most excited about working here are my rockstar colleagues. The collection of incredibly smart and kind people just stunning. It is also the best company I have worked for with respect to making global teams work efficiently with respect for everyone’s work/life balance. And let’s not forget the awesome technology we are building…” Read Nina’s blog series: The peering coordinators’ toolbox.

“It is rare to find a company where engineering, marketing, sales, and the administration groups are all in the boat together. In my 25 year career I’ve rarely been fortunate enough to be a part of this culture. I was seeking this type of environment again and Kentik fits like a glove.”

“What I love the most about Kentik is the team of amazing professionals I get to work with! Everyone really cares about and respects each other — that sense of camaraderie makes everything better because you’re working with people you admire and genuinely enjoy talking with on a daily basis. Plus, the technologies we are working on are really cool, so that doesn’t hurt either.”

“Most importantly, I see a team. A team that cares deeply about each other and our mission to unlock the mysteries that only network data can solve. A team that has demonstrated expertise in distributed systems, data processing, and modern user experience. I see one of the most talented teams, top to bottom, I’ve ever been a part of.” Learn more about the engineering team in Mike’s blog post.

“There’s no shortage of companies using relevant technologies to do cool stuff, it’s really the people you work with day in and out that make the difference between enjoying your job or not. Kentik’s culture/people make it a great place to be, not looking for ‘code ninjas’ to burn out and throw away, but experienced professionals that share a vision and want to work to make a quality product.”
