March 12, 2018 - Rubrik

Recently, we chatted with Rubrik a Palo Alto-based startup taking on the challenges around enterprise Cloud Data Management.  We learned some interesting information about their hiring.

Current Opportunities 

They have quite a few open roles in their Engineering and Sales Departments,  and want Columbians to apply. Visit their careers page to see the most current list of opportunities.  These positions are open to Undergraduate and Graduate students, with some experience. 

Pro Tip for Sales: 

Think of it as not selling but solving. Be professional about your work, but if the product is not a right fit, it is ok to walk away. 

Company Culture

Its an exciting time at Rubrik. The company is growing,  and the business is moving fast as well. As a mid-stage startup, this is a great time to see the growth. There is a willingness to learn, to adapt, and to stick it through with determination and grit. 

how to Stand Out 

Candidates are evaluated for skills and fit, but in particular, they are measured across a 4 point scale:

  • Grit
  • Intelligence
  • “Grab a beer”, or cultural fit
  • An X-Factor, or what makes this person unique
