When a system goes down, someone has to see it first

That someone is our team. We build the observability and incident management platform that keeps the digital operations of fintechs, banks and retailers in Brazil up and running.

Why here

Hard problems, real scale, data in Brazil

Observability is one of the densest engineering problems out there: high-volume ingestion, time series, signal correlation, anomaly detection and incident response in minutes. People here work on this every day, in the production environments of customers who cannot afford to stop.

We are a Brazilian sovereign observability platform — our customers’ data stays 100% in Brazil, under the LGPD (Brazil’s General Data Protection Law), and billing is in Brazilian reais. That is not a legal footnote: it shapes the architecture we build and the kind of technical decisions you will make.

Beyond the platform, we develop people. Our SRE Training Program was born in 2021 because the Brazilian market did not have enough Cloud, DevOps and SRE professionals. Whoever joins Elven learns from the people who write that content.

What you will build here

Elven is a product and a service at the same time. That opens up workstreams that rarely coexist in the same company — from platform engineering to hands-on assisted operations.

Observability

High-volume ingestion and querying of metrics, logs and traces. People on this team deal with time series, retention, cost per data point and query latency.

Incident Manager

Detection, routing, escalation and postmortems. The challenge is to cut noise without missing the alert that matters — and to prove it with numbers.

Command Center

Mapping critical business journeys onto the technical stack, so operations can see the impact on customers, not just on CPU.

NOC and Operations

24x7 on-call monitoring of customer environments. This is where the platform meets reality — and where much of what becomes product comes from.

Product and Design

Interfaces for people resolving an incident at 3 a.m. Clarity under pressure is worth more than any visual flourish.

Elven Academy

SRE training at three levels, for companies and for people changing careers. Content written by people who actually run operations.

Where we are

A team spread across all of Brazil

A distributed team can only sustain trust with clear agreements. These are ours — and they apply to everyone, from the newest hire to leadership.

Culture

Continuous development
is not talk, it is routine

We invest in the growth of every person on the team through regular check-ins, financial support for learning and open space for exchange across teams.

Regular one-on-ones

Monthly or bimonthly meetings between managers and team members, for alignment, growth and productivity. This is where difficult conversations happen early, not late.

Support for courses and certifications

Anyone who wants to grow can count on the company to help with the investment, according to each area’s budget. This applies to technical training and to leadership skills.

Career plan

Under construction and constantly evolving for each area of the company — with explicit progression criteria, not decided case by case.

Internal Talks

A monthly open-topic session, proposed by team members themselves, to encourage exchange across areas. Whoever presents a Talk gets a gift.

Freedom and closeness

Everyone can talk to anyone in the company, with no hierarchical barriers. At a company our size, approval layers only slow down good decisions.

Autonomy with ownership

"Be your own manager" — you are the protagonist of your routine, and you are accountable for its results. Autonomy here comes with a sense of belonging.
