Infrastructure monitoring platform for cloud, hybrid, and data center environments
Checkmk is an IT infrastructure monitoring platform built on Python and PostgreSQL, deployed across tens of thousands of users in over 50 countries. The company is shifting from sales-led hiring to partner-channel growth: active roles cluster heavily in sales and product, with concurrent projects around partner ecosystem development in DACH and North America, data migration away from legacy Odoo, and partner sales cycle automation — indicating a transition from direct sales toward channel-driven expansion.
Checkmk provides monitoring solutions for cloud, hybrid, and on-premises IT infrastructure, including containers and networks. The platform is designed for high-availability operations, emphasizing outage prevention and rapid incident resolution. Built on open source principles with Python and PostgreSQL, it integrates into observability ecosystems and third-party tools. The company operates across more than 50 countries with tens of thousands of active users, serving organizations managing complex IT environments.
Checkmk runs on Python, PostgreSQL, and Linux. The stack also includes Kubernetes for container orchestration, SQL for querying, and Salesforce for CRM. The company is migrating away from Odoo toward a new backend system.
Checkmk is headquartered in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, founded in 2007. Active hiring is in Germany and the United States, with strategic initiatives to expand partner networks in both DACH and North America.
