DevOps Engineer (Observability)

Responsibilities

• In this role, you’ll
• Lead the end-to-end architecture and delivery of key observability platform components, with a focus on reliability, scalability, and usability.
• Drive consistency and quality across all observability signals—logs, metrics, traces, and continuous profiling—building intuitive workflows for engineers.
• Serve as a technical advisor and mentor across the platform org, guiding design decisions and aligning cross-team efforts with long-term architectural goals.
• Go deep in one or more problem areas (e.g., high-cardinality telemetry, distributed tracing correlation, compute cost insights), while ensuring the platform scales horizontally.
• Collaborate with product teams, SREs, and developer experience groups to deeply understand telemetry needs and integrate observability into core engineering workflows.
• Design and build developer-friendly tooling and APIs to support incident response, performance analysis, and platform debugging at scale.
• Leverage (and optionally contribute to) open-source standards like OpenTelemetry to ensure interoperability and extensibility.
• Champion a pragmatic approach to observability—balancing performance, cost, and user value across diverse engineering teams.
