About Cloudsmith
Cloudsmith is the world’s most powerful artifact management platform. Software organizations of all sizes use Cloudsmith to protect and manage their software supply chain. Running at cloud scale in a multi-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, Cloudsmith hosts repositories that proxy and cache public open-source software (OSS) indexes, providing a platform that organizations can use to scan artifacts for security vulnerabilities, licensing issues, and malware, as well as implement policies that govern the use of artifacts and act as a dependency firewall. We support over 30 formats, with broad support for languages, containers, and operating system libraries. Cloudsmith is built for the enterprise, supporting modern security protocols and providing advanced features for observability, integration, and orchestration. Customers use Cloudsmith as part of their CI/CD build chain, as well as for developer-native distribution of their own artifacts and binaries to end-customers.
We help our customers manage and secure their software supply chain, and improve their developer experience. We are by developers, for developers. Our culture operates with openness and transparency, driven by our ambition to build a great company. We enjoy working with great people and customers. We learn, support one another, and we’re growing. Now is a great time to join us.
