• Continuously raise the bar on observability practices by driving adoption of SLOs, distributed tracing, and structured logging throughout engineering.
• Build and maintain AI-powered agents and automation that help engineers surface insights faster, reduce alert fatigue, and accelerate incident resolution.
• Guide and empower engineers on other teams to instrument their services effectively and introduce new features into production with confidence.
• Participate in and continuously improve on-call and incident response processes, with a focus on making observability data the foundation of faster, more effective responses.
• Reduce toil by automating common observability workflows to keep the rest of engineering working smoothly with fewer interruptions.
• Partner effectively with engineering teams to define, implement, and improve observability practices, enabling them to confidently ship and operate services in production.
• Help define the culture of this growing team as it expands its international presence.

• Have either a background as a software engineer with an enthusiasm for observability, infrastructure and reliability or background as an infra or production engineer with an enthusiasm for code, or 
• Have 5+ years of experience building, maintaining, and debugging distributed systems in a customer-facing environment that allows for little to no downtime.
• Have hands-on experience with observability platforms and tooling such as Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus, ElasticSearch or similar, and a strong opinion on what good observability looks like.
• Have experience with OpenTelemetry or similar instrumentation frameworks for collecting metrics, traces, profiles and logs across distributed services.
• Experience defining and operationalizing SLOs/SLIs at scale.
• Have experience navigating and scaling multi-tier cloud environments on either AWS or GCP.

It would be a bonus if you had even one of the following:

• Experience building or operating AI agents that interact with observability data (e.g., automated root cause analysis, intelligent alerting, or natural-language querying of telemetry).
• Experience with OpenTelemetry, Kubernetes and Pulumi specifically.
• Experience improving on-call and incident response processes for Engineering.
