    We’ve lived and breathed incidents, on-call, and Chaos Engineering for a decade. We’ve served as ‘Call Leaders’ at Amazon and Netflix, responsible for fixing global outages. We’ve built Gremlin to help companies harden and prepare services for internet scale.

    Together, Kolton and Matt have solved some of the biggest challenges facing reliability teams at category-defining technology companies.

    Kolton is co-founder and CEO of Gremlin. Previously he was a Chaos Engineer at Netflix improving streaming reliability and operating the Edge services. He designed and built F.I.T., Netflix's failure injection service. Prior he improved the performance and reliability of the Amazon Retail website. At both companies he has served as a 'Call Leader', managing the resolution of company-wide incidents.

    Matt is Co-Founder and CTO of Gremlin. Previously, he was a Senior Platform Engineer at Salesforce, where he led the charge to bolster the experience of viewing and editing each and every record. Before that he improved the reliability and customer experience of the Amazon Retail website, where he founded the ’Fatals‘ team which reduced the number of website errors by half in its first year.
