About IPinfo
IPinfo is a leading provider of IP address data. Our API handles over 100 billion requests a month, and we also license our data for use in many products and services you might have used. We started as a side project back in 2013, offering a free geolocation API, and we've since bootstrapped ourselves to a profitable business with a global team of over 40 people, and grown our data offerings to include geolocation, IP to company, carrier detection, and VPN detection. Our customers include T-Mobile, TransUnion, DataDog, DemandBase, and many more.
How We Work
We have a small and ambitious team, spread all over the globe. We sync up on a monthly all-hands Zoom call, and most teams do a call together every 2 weeks. Everything else happens asynchronously, via Slack, GitHub, Linear, and Notion. That means you can pick the hours that work best for you, to allow you to be at your most productive.
To thrive in this environment you'll need to have high levels of autonomy and ownership. You have to be resourceful and able to work effectively in a remote setup.
Our Probe Network
At IPinfo we've built out one of the most capable internet measurement networks in existence - our Probe Network. It currently consists of over 700 servers, deployed in over 240 cities in over 115 countries, across 250 ASNs.
With the probe network we perform empirical Internet measurements (including ping, traceroute and various other measurements), accumulating more than 20TB of resulting data every week. Using these measurements we can among other things confirm or refute geolocation hints, detect VPN and proxy networks, and identify IP address aliases.
We have ambitious plans to continue to expand the scale of the probe network, and the measurement data that we collect from it.
