Graylog: AI-Powered Security & IT Operations Without Compromise
Graylog builds the AI-powered SIEM and log management platform that security and IT teams rely on to quickly catch threats, investigate with clarity, and control data costs — all without trade-offs. Our platform brings together scalable log management, real-time visibility, and explainable AI that supports analysts with clear insights instead of black-box guesses. It helps teams zero in on real threats, act faster, and make decisions with confidence.
More than 60,000 organizations across 180 countries use Graylog products — from Security and Enterprise to our long-standing Open edition — to gain clarity, context, and control across their environments. Rooted in open source and headquartered in Houston, we continue to grow a global community and customer base that values speed, transparency, and practical innovation.
Our work is also earning industry attention. Graylog made its first appearance on the Gartner SIEM Magic Quadrant and was named both a “Leader” and “Outperformer” in GigaOm’s 2025 SIEM Radar. These recognitions back up what our customers already see every day: Graylog works — without slowing teams down or bloating budgets.
We're a people-first company. Remote-friendly by design, we offer the flexibility to work where you’re most effective — whether that’s one of our hubs in Hamburg, Munich, London, or Houston, or from a home office anywhere in the world. Prefer the office? Go for it. Want to hot-desk now and then? No problem. Fully remote? That works too. And yes, it’s working. In addition to industry recognition, Graylog was named to BuiltIn’s Best Places to Work list — a reflection of how we operate and the impact our teams make every day.
If you’re looking to join a team that values curiosity, craftsmanship, and impact — and you want to build tools that make real work easier — we think you’ll feel right at home.
Graylog is seeking a Director of Revenue Operations to own and scale our end-to-end revenue operations function across Sales, Marketing and Customer Success. This role will be responsible for aligning systems, processes and data to drive predictable revenue growth, improve customer lifecycle management and support data driven decision-making.
