Backup, recovery, and data governance platform for ransomware and compliance resilience
CrashPlan operates a data resilience platform covering endpoint, server, and SaaS backup with recovery and governance layers. The tech stack is test-heavy (Postman, Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Karate) and polyglot (Java, Python, JavaScript, C#), suggesting complex multi-environment coverage. Hiring velocity is accelerating with senior engineers leading, and internal projects span regional sales expansion and core front-end modernization — typical of a company scaling go-to-market and product concurrently.
CrashPlan provides backup, disaster recovery, and data governance solutions for organizations across all sizes. The platform protects data on endpoints, servers, and SaaS applications like Google Workspace, addressing ransomware recovery, compliance, and legal hold use cases. The company operates from Minneapolis with a globally distributed team spanning the United States, Canada, and India. CrashPlan serves more than 50,000 organizations worldwide.
CrashPlan runs on Java, Python, JavaScript, and C#, with React and Angular for front-end, Azure for cloud infrastructure, and Palo Alto Networks / FortiGate for security. Testing is built around Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and Karate; CI/CD uses Jenkins and GitLab CI/CD.
Active projects include core data protection front-end web applications, regional sales strategy expansion, partner relationship management, enterprise product documentation, and IT controls implementation.
