Setup Incident.io
Incident.io is our primary tool for managing and responding to urgent issues and service disruptions. This guide explains how we use Incident.io to coordinate our on-call rotations and emergency response procedures.
Setup and Notifications
Personal Setup
- Download the Incident.io mobile app from your device’s app store
- Ask your team to add you to the Incident.io workspace
- Configure your notification preferences:
- Phone calls for critical incidents
- Push notifications for high-priority issues
- Slack notifications for standard updates
On-Call Rotations
Our team operates on a weekly rotation schedule through Incident.io, where every team member participates. When you’re on-call:
- You’ll receive priority notifications for all urgent issues
- Phone calls will be placed for critical service disruptions
- Rotations change every week, with handoffs occurring on Monday mornings
- Response is expected within 15 minutes for critical incidents
If you are unable to respond to an incident, please escalate to the engineering team.
