The Elevator Pitch: Why will you enjoy this new opportunity?

You have an analytical mind and a genuine passion for the craft of software engineering, and you love solving problems and learning new things. Technologies come and go, but that excites you because of the endless possibilities it creates. With VMware Tanzu Observability by Wavefront, you will get to work on a leading observability platform built for enterprises in the cloud era. You will work on a cutting edge SaaS product that is used 24/7 by development and site-reliability teams at leading enterprises such as Lyft, Doordash, Reddit, Snowflake, Intuit, Box, Workday, and many more.

What is the primary need, technical challenge, and/or problem you will be responsible for?

We need someone who can own the delivery of significant parts of the Tanzu Observability UI. You will be working on high-performance visualizations of the metric, histogram, and tracing data along with intuitive management and organization of application business logic. You will also work on visualizing AI-generated insights used for detecting anomalies in the system and RCA (root cause analysis).

We are looking for someone who can closely work with and mentor our front end engineers and collaborate with the team to deliver key software features to our customers. What differentiates us in the current observability landscape is our intuitive, scalable and extremely powerful UI and you will play a key role in taking our platform to the next level.

Success in the role: What are the performance goals over the first 6-12 months you will work toward completing?

  • Act as a technical lead on front end initiatives, providing design guidance to the team.
  • Deliver new frontend features for VMware Tanzu Observability by Wavefront.
  • Produce high quality frontend code using HTML5, ES6, CSS, React+Redux, hooks etc.
  • Work closely with UX, Product Managers and backend engineers.
  • Communicating complex concepts in technical and non-technical settings.
  • Identification and resolution of technical debt.



What type of work will you be doing? What assignments, requirements, or skills will you be performing on a regular basis?

As a key member of Tanzu Observability UI team,

  • You will work on the UI components for different pillars of observability (metrics, counters, histograms, traces, span logs, events, etc.)
  • Develop high-performance interactive charting with Javascript and related technologies (canvas, svg, webgl).
  • Experience with frontend build processes such as webpack, gulp, and sass.
  • Self-starter with a high attention to detail.
  • Good communication and presentation skills.
  • Provide significant technical leadership and direction for our front-end engineers.



We know from experience that not ticking every box on the skills sections stops many from applying. Please apply regardless of your self-assessment -- we want to hear from you! We have seen engineers succeed with a diverse range of skills and experiences.

What is the structure and culture of the team like?
We previously worked out of the Palo Alto office but have now fully adapted to remote work, with team leads and members in the SF Bay, Austin and Denver. Remote opportunities are also available.

Culturally, the team is focused on innovation, customer value, execution, growth, and kindness. We retain the original startup DNA in our responsiveness and respect towards everyone's contributions and focus on exciting big ideas, innovation, and features and fixes that deliver customer value. However, we have the stable backing VMware, which is itself a values-cherishing company and a great place to work.
