SigNoz

WellHired's take

“SigNoz has built genuine open-source credibility (31,500+ GitHub stars, hundreds of real paying customers) in a category dominated by well-funded incumbents like Datadog and New Relic, backed by SignalFire and notable angels including GitHub and PlanetScale co-founders. As a fully remote, ~40-person team with no offices at all, expect very high individual ownership and visible impact - a strong fit if you want to work on hard, data-intensive developer infrastructure problems (petabyte-scale telemetry, ClickHouse, Kubernetes) without big-company process.”
