Blameless Secures $30M Series B Funding to Fuel Growth for Site Reliability Engineering SolutionsSAN MATEO, Calif., July 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blameless, the industry's leading end-to-end Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) platform, today announced a $30 million Series B funding round led by Third Point Ventures with continued participation from Accel, Decibel and Lightspeed Venture Partners. This brings total funding to over $50M. The company also announced that Third Point Ventures Partner Dan Moskowitz will join the Blameless Board of Directors, alongside CEO & Co-Founder Lyon Wong, Accel partner Vas Natarajan and Lightspeed partner, Ravi Mhatre. “Software engineering complexity is at an all-time high and failure is inevitable,” stated Lyon Wong, Blameless Co-founder and CEO. “Failure is where teams learn and improve with shared retrospectives and insights which reduces risk and costs, over time.

That’s just the beginning of their reliability journey with us,” added Wong. “Reliability and team resilience go hand-in-hand,” stated Dan Moskowitz, partner at Third Point Ventures. “Freeing up engineering to focus on shipping code is exactly what Blameless achieves.
