Jellyfish was founded in 2017 by Andrew Lau, Ilan Frank, and Chris Bissell, based on the observation that engineering organizations at growing technology companies often represent a very significant share of overall company spending, but that engineering leadership and broader company executives frequently have limited visibility into how engineering time and resources are actually being allocated across different types of work, such as building new features versus fixing bugs versus addressing technical debt, making it difficult to have informed conversations about engineering resource allocation and its alignment with broader company strategic priorities. Jellyfish's platform aggregates data from the various systems engineering teams already use in their daily work, including code repositories, project management and issue tracking tools, and calendars, to generate estimates and analytics regarding how engineering activity is allocated across projects and categories. of work and different projects or business initiatives, without requiring engineers to manually log or categorize their time, which the company argues would be both burdensome for engineers and prone to inconsistent or inaccurate self-reporting. This data-driven visibility is intended to help engineering leaders have more informed, evidence-based conversations with other business stakeholders about engineering resource allocation and priorities, addressing a common tension at many companies where engineering leadership struggles to clearly communicate and justify how engineering investment maps to business outcomes and strategic priorities in terms that non-technical executives and other stakeholders can readily understand. The company has positioned its platform as helping bridge the communication gap that often exists between engineering organizations and the broader business, particularly relevant for compliance requirements such as R&D tax credit substantiation, which requires companies to document how engineering time was allocated between different types of qualifying research and development activities. Jellyfish's customers span growing technology companies seeking better visibility into engineering resource allocation and its connection to broader business strategy. The company has raised substantial venture funding from investors including Insight Partners and Amplify Partners, competing with other engineering management platforms including LinearB and Swarmia.
