CockroachDB makes it easier for companies to build and scale apps. We’re cloud-native, open source, and indestructible.

What we value
Commit to Excellence
We commit to shipping products and serving customers with a singular focus on excellence. We take pride in breaking boundaries, constantly improving, and aiming to produce great (not just good) work in order to win the market. Excellence is how we build a category-defining company.
Respect Each Other
We approach discussions with humility and an open mind to guarantee that we will learn something new or appreciate a problem from a new perspective. And that, in turn, leads to better outcomes.
Establish Balance
We believe that whole, healthy individuals produce consistently exceptional results. Whether we find work-life balance through time with friends and family, a healthy lifestyle, or intellectual pursuits, maintaining a healthy balance enables high performance.
Communicate Openly & Honestly
We are at our best when we communicate openly and honestly – understanding both our successes and our failures in order to continuously improve and enable each Roacher to effectively contribute to solving difficult problems.

How We Give Back
Referral Donations
We match each employee referral bonus with an equivalent donation to a 501(c)(3) of the employee’s choice.
Corporate Giving Initiatives
Cockroach Labs hiring and marketing initiatives center charitable organizations such as Black Girls Code, Women Who Code, and more.
Connect and Contribute Program
Connect and Contribute days are company time dedicated for our people to learn, seek understanding, grow, volunteer, mobilize, or otherwise make a positive change.
Community Engagement
We partner with organizations in our local communities through team volunteer efforts, mentorship, and fostering the next generation of tech talent.
Sustainability
We believe in minimizing our carbon footprint and protecting the environment— where possible, we’ve phased out production and shipment of Cockroach Labs swag in favor of donations to nonprofit causes.
Diversity, Inclusion, & Belonging
"I joined Cockroach Labs because it was a chance to work on once-in-a-decade technology with a huge addressable market. It's cliché to say that you join startups to learn fast and do a bit of everything, but as the first product manager on CockroachDB Dedicated, and now GM of the offering, that's certainly been true and a highlight of my time here. The opportunity to work with so many talented people across the company while making rapid progress on solving hard customer problems is the best part of my job."
