Who we are

detech.ai is the most comprehensive (and only) Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) Platform that allows companies to keep innovating and delivering features fast without sacrificing reliability and performance.

We do this by productizing and democratizing SRE practices, such as the definition and management of Service Level Objectives (SLOs) that allow teams, even non-technical ones, to have a clear understanding of the health of their IT applications, to make data-driven decisions about when it's important to improve reliability and to alert on-call engineers the right way.

We are backed by top tier investors like Techstars NYC, TheVentureCity and Shilling Capital Partners, which makes us well positioned to scale globally!

We are building the next generation of DevOps and SRE tools. Something so simple that even your grandma could use!!

To achieve this, we believe that an inclusive and diverse culture are mandatory! This is why we want to encourage people from different backgrounds to apply to join our team!

Join us, and help us build a top notch company and product, that helps companies worldwide and that scales like a rocket 🚀

What makes detech.ai unique?

We strive to make an impact and to make a change in the entire industry. We plan to do this by democratizing the access to SRE practices to companies of all sizes, to help them innovate and deliver new features fast (as they should be doing) without sacrificing software reliability and user experience.

To get there we are focused in hiring hungry, passionate and driven people who share our values.

⭐️ OUR VALUES

At detech.ai we have a set of core values that are at the core of who we are as a team.
One of our main goals as a young start-up, is to make this one of the best places in the world 🌍 to work for. To achieve this, we need to create an incredible company culture.

Since the first 10-20 employees are the ones that define the culture of a company, this is something that we will take into consideration when selecting new team members.

• We move fast and with focus
  We focus on one thing at a time and we do it fast and well. To do this, we only make decisions that are backed with data, to make sure we are on the right path. We always try to find the simplest and most effective way to achieve the end result. IT is already complex enough!
  
• We are passionate about what we do
  We love the work we do, we are hungry about learning and that gives us the energy to excel. Everybody is the leader of their work, and has full ownership to ensure that things get done successfully.
  
• We always go above and beyond
  We always strive to do more than what's asked of us. We don't settle for good enough, we always try to find a better way to do things.
  
• We work as a team to grow and succeed
  We are not a collective of individual players. We always try to involve others in our work to enrich what we are doing, and offer our help and expertise to enable our team mates to grow and succeed.
  
• We always focus on outcomes to our users, not on output
  Dedicate your time in things that are going to make impact and solve problems of our users. We always prioritize our activities to make sure we focus on what really matters.
  
• We value and respect everyone
  We love to work with humble and egoless people from different backgrounds, genders, ethnicities and geographies and that makes us stronger.
