OpsLevel is the leading internal developer portal designed to help engineering teams build, ship, and maintain software better than ever. We believe that developer portals are the linchpin to a successful developer experience. With customers like Duolingo, Sotheby's, Keller Williams, and Hootsuite, we know that the best businesses in the world prioritize a great developer experience in order to beat the competition.
We're a fully-remote team of folks who care deeply about the daily lives of developers, with team members across North America and Europe. OpsLevelers live our company values on a daily basis and when we’re not heads-down on a project or collaborating in real-time over Zoom, we're competing in trivia over lunch or sharing the latest fur baby photo in #pets-to-make-you-live-longer.
Our culture and values are very important and ground us in how we interact as one team:
Empathy - Think of others; think of your users
Growth Mindset - Get comfortable with being uncomfortable
Intellectual Honesty - The best solution is more important than anyone's ego
Focus & Efficiency - Keep the main thing the main thing
Simplicity
Our Stack
We believe in boring technology because it’s well tested and simple. Our current stack is:
Ruby on Rails (our main application’s backend)
Vue.js (our app’s UI)
GraphQL (how the UI and the backend talk to each other; also used by customers as part of our platform)
MySQL (gotta store those bits somewhere)
Redis (some bits gotta be stored faster)
Terraform (config as code, because any other way is painful)
Kubernetes (we use AWS EKS)
Golang (for various operational tools and our open source offerings)
AWS / GCP
Docker
DataDog
Git
Elasticsearch
