ngrok empowers developers to build for the internet. This involves challenging problem-solving around networking, reliability, and performance. We build tools for engineers in nearly every Fortune 500 company and are expanding our offerings targeted at production workloads and use cases.
Our employees are low-ego, curious learners with a passion for developer-first tooling. We use our company values: we are customer obsessed, we are owners, we lead with empathy, we learn fast, and we win as one team to guide our work. As a company, we set aside an hour each fortnight for shared introspection about anxieties and excitement, both personal and professional. We’re building an inclusive, remote-first organization that sets each individual up to be their best self.
We believe the total addressable market for ngrok is in excess of $73 billion and are increasing our growth to capture that.
