What you'll do

  • Partner with engineering teams to monitor, analyze, and optimize performance across complex distributed systems.
  • Leverage AI tools and agent-based workflows to accelerate root cause analysis, identify patterns, and reduce manual toil.

  • Integrate automated performance testing and regression detection into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Dogfood the Dynatrace platform to uncover performance issues and provide data-driven, actionable insights.
  • Contribute to internal tooling, playbooks, and knowledge sharing to help teams resolve issues faster and more autonomously.
What will help you succeed

  • An AI-first mindset: you actively explore how AI can accelerate engineering workflows and reduce manual effort
  • Curiosity and drive to automate and rethink how work gets done
  • Strong collaboration skills and the ability to influence engineering teams
  • Experience with Java / Spring Boot / Go is a nice to have
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes and cloud-native architectures is a plus
  • Experience building or extending automation, tooling, or agents (e.g., scripts, pipelines, AI-assisted workflows) is also a plus

  • We provide a culture of excellence with competitive compensation packages designed to recognize and reward performance.
