About LaunchDarkly:
LaunchDarkly is a Feature Management Platform that serves trillions of feature flags daily to help software teams build better software, faster.

We are building a diverse team so that we can offer robust products and services. Our team culture is dynamic, friendly, and supportive. Our headquarters are in Oakland.
At LaunchDarkly, we believe in the power of teams. We're building a team that is humble, open, collaborative, respectful and kind.
