Three names tie at 8

Sentry, Supabase, and ClickHouse each map 8 current people. The three 8s do not merge into one name.

on-call ladder: GitLab 47, CrowdStrike 26, and Sentry, Supabase, ClickHouse each 8, total 97
An on-call ladder, not a see-saw. 47 on the top rung, 26 on the next, three 8s side by side at the base.
Second Rung

CrowdStrike 26 is the second rung and the pack's only security name

CrowdStrike maps 26 current people on the same titled phrase, against GitLab 47.

five roster tiles: GitLab 47, CrowdStrike 26, Sentry 8, Supabase 8, ClickHouse 8
Five tiles, one pack. 47 plus 26 plus three 8s makes 97.

The two rungs are 21 apart

GitLab 47 and CrowdStrike 26 sit 21 people apart. Both numbers come from the same titled phrase.

Sample titles that hold

The sample carries Site Reliability Engineer and Senior Site Reliability Engineer. Both spell the title out.

A security name reads the same title

CrowdStrike is the only security name in the pack. Its 26 people still read on the same titled phrase; no separate security seat is opened for them.

Official pages sit in methods

The five official careers homes sit in methods and FAQ; the body carries no ATS links.

The contrast.The rungs are not tied. The five names stay written apart.
The Tied Three

Sentry, Supabase, and ClickHouse each map 8, and the three 8s stay three names

Sentry, Supabase, and ClickHouse each map 8 current people, the pack's tied third rung.

Sentry 8

Sentry maps 8 current people. That 8 belongs to the sentry.io homepage record.

Supabase 8

Supabase maps 8 current people, tied with Sentry. The open-source database host and the error-monitoring name sit equally thick on this title.

ClickHouse 8

ClickHouse maps 8 current people. The three 8s are three separate company records, not one 24.

Why they stay apart

Merging would read an 8 as a 24. A buyer reads the list company by company, so the peer pack stays split by name.

Title Rung

Senior SRE and SRE share one title rung

In the sample, Site Reliability Engineer and Senior Site Reliability Engineer land on one title rung rather than two maps.

title-rung tree: SRE and Senior SRE as rungs under the Site Reliability Engineer phrase
One titled phrase, two seniority rungs. Both 47 and 26 hang on that one phrase.

Site Reliability Engineer

The titled phrase is Site Reliability Engineer. It is this page's only numerator.

Senior SRE

Senior Site Reliability Engineer still reads as the same seat, one seniority rung higher.

A bare Software Engineer is not the numerator

A title that only says Software Engineer does not enter the 97. The numerator is the spelled-out Site Reliability Engineer phrase.

No invented title

This page invents no title such as Platform Engineer to widen the numerator. All five names read the same phrase.

Five Company Records

Five company homepage records add up to the 97

The 97-person pack total adds the seat on the GitLab, CrowdStrike, Sentry, Supabase, and ClickHouse homepage records only.

The same methodology exports mapped current Site Reliability Engineer profiles at the five names. The three 8s export apart, not as one 24.

Struck Off

Adjacent titles stay off the 97

Titles adjacent to SRE but different from it are not unioned into the 97.

What stays in the pack

Titled Site Reliability Engineer and Senior Site Reliability Engineer. Two rungs of one titled phrase, and nothing else.

What is struck off

Backend and fullstack titles, Support Engineer, Solutions Architect, Customer Success, customer engineering, and titles that only say Software Engineer all stay off the 97.

What is not used as headcount

A company's published employee total and the size band on its website are not used as headcount. The 97 comes from mapped profiles.

Left off the map

Platform Engineer is not a title this page invents. DevOps, production engineering, and infrastructure engineering are not unioned into the 97 either.

in: SRE and Senior SRE; struck: Backend, Support Engineer, and bare Software Engineer
Two spelled-out titles are in. Adjacent titles are struck. The 97 comes from that one phrase.
Off This Freeze

Vercel, Temporal, EngFlow, and Abnormal are not on this freeze

This peer pack froze at five names on September 8, 2026 PT (9/8). Four names that came up did not enter this freeze.

Vercel came off the list

Vercel came off this peer pack before the freeze and is not counted in the 97.

Three names were not queried

How to read this.The pack is five names, not nine.
Methodology

One titled phrase across five homepage records

Title slice

The numerator is the spelled-out Site Reliability Engineer title phrase, including the Senior Site Reliability Engineer rung. Backend and fullstack titles, Support Engineer, Solutions Architect, Customer Success, customer engineering, and titles that only say Software Engineer were not unioned in. Platform Engineer was not invented.

Current basis

The figures are profiles Metix maps as currently employed at that company name. They are not official headcount, and not a company's published employee total or website size band.

Names

Each of the five names is read on one unique homepage record: about.gitlab.com, crowdstrike.com, sentry.io, supabase.com, clickhouse.com. Leftover parent and other website records are not unioned. Vercel came off the list; Temporal, EngFlow, and Abnormal were not queried.

FAQ

Questions this report answers

How many current Site Reliability Engineer people does GitLab map?
As of September 8, 2026 PT, GitLab maps 47 current Site Reliability Engineer people against CrowdStrike 26, and the five-name peer pack totals 97. These are Metix-mapped title-slice counts, not official headcount. Source: Metix AI.
What does the 97-person SRE peer pack add?
97 adds GitLab 47, CrowdStrike 26, Sentry 8, Supabase 8, and ClickHouse 8 only. The slice is the spelled-out Site Reliability Engineer title phrase, including the Senior Site Reliability Engineer rung. Backend and fullstack titles, Support Engineer, Solutions Architect, Customer Success, customer engineering, and titles that only say Software Engineer are out. Platform Engineer was not invented, and leftover parent or other website records are not unioned.
Why do Sentry, Supabase, and ClickHouse stay three separate 8s?
Each of the three maps 8 current Site Reliability Engineer people on its own homepage record: sentry.io, supabase.com, and clickhouse.com. Merging them would read an 8 as a 24, so the peer pack stays split by company name. Official careers homes: Sentry https://sentry.io/careers/ , Supabase https://supabase.com/careers , ClickHouse https://clickhouse.com/company/careers . GitLab https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/ and CrowdStrike https://www.crowdstrike.com/en-us/careers/ complete the pack.
