WHO WE ARE

Uplevel is engineering intelligence for the enterprise. Engineering leaders use our system everyday to make key decisions, gaining data-driven insights so that their teams can ship products effectively and efficiently.

Our mission is to bring people, process, and operational insights together to catalyze change in engineering organizations and accelerate business value.

OUR VALUES

PEOPLE FIRST: We humanize work for our employees and customers and work with others that do the same.

PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION: We are solving a problem that’s never been solved. This calls for creative innovation.

EMPOWERED WITH DATA: We seek data to help us learn, define, solve, and iterate on the problems.

About half of us are Seattle based but we are a remote-first company and hire wherever we can find the best talent. We offer some of the best benefits of any smaller company including generous vacation, a robust health plan, 401(k), professional development, and much more.
