About Hivel

Hivel is a B2B SaaS solution for engineering teams to bring in data-driven culture for people and process efficiency. We aim to make engineering teams release features more often, take less time to roll out features, and still avoid team burnout. 

We are a US-based startup with product and development based out of India. We are building in India for global markets, using the Silicon Valley exposure of our founder, advisors, and investors from top companies like Uber, Square, Microsoft, and Amazon. We are based out of Hyderabad but are open to remote team members as long as they can travel occasionally.
