This is a 0-1 initiative. With Postman Insights, our vision is to help guide a developer with little previous experience—in both the system being monitored and the Postman API Platform—to productively find and fix issues. Our goal is to be able to help any developer locate API endpoints causing potential issues within 15 minutes of signing up for an account. This will empower even a new developer to find and fix issues in their first days on the job, as easily as they can call an API today.
As we prepare to launch our open beta, we’re looking for an experienced backend engineer to make our solution drop-in across a variety of tech stacks. Right now, Postman Insights runs via the Postman Insights agent and is able to support onboarding small users across ECS, K8s, and EC2 in under 15 minutes. The goal is to support a wider variety of tech stacks, with increasingly complex deployments, to seamlessly install our agent in the same amount of time.
