Why work at Cockroach Labs
- Culture: Cockroach Labs emphasizes a culture of "good ideas come from everyone," collaboration, and leadership regardless of title. They have employee resource groups (CREWS) like Women at Cockroach Labs, Roacher Pride, AsianPI at CRL, and Black at CRL.
- Work Model: The company has an office-first approach (hybrid), requiring employees to be in one of their offices (NYC, Toronto, or other hubs) on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, with flexibility the rest of the week. Remote roles are reserved for specific field sales and enterprise architecture positions.
- Benefits & Perks: Competitive health insurance, paid parental leave, flexible PTO, learning & development budget, relocation support, and an employee referral bonus.
- Engineering Culture: Engineers work with a modern stack (Go, Kubernetes, Terraform, Prometheus) on a category-defining product. The company is committed to open source, continuous improvement, and publishing research. Onboarding includes a structured 30-day program.
- Interview Process: They use an "open interview process" with exercise-based assessments (coding, system design, case studies) to reduce bias and focus on skills rather than resumes. They aim for a fair, transparent, and two-way conversation.
