Experienced Observability Infrastructure Engineer responsible for building and maintaining observability pillars, processing logs, metrics, and traces for product teams.
Обязанности
- Build the next generation of our platform: Design and implement the future architecture of our logging and metrics systems. You will play a key role in redesigning our infrastructure to support new global regions, ensuring data isolation and regulatory compliance in different geographies, and more.
- Own infrastructure operations: You will take full ownership of our hybrid infrastructure, managing the lifecycle of over 1,500 servers across both bare-metal and Kubernetes environments.
- Automate to reduce toil: You will write code in Go or Python to eliminate manual operational tasks. Your goal is to build self-healing systems that do not require manual intervention during the night. You will improve our CI pipelines to ensure that changes to our clusters are safe, predictable, and automated.
- Optimize for scale and performance: You will dive deep into performance bottlenecks within our distributed tracing and logging pipelines. We deal with high-volume data streams that can overwhelm standard configurations. You will tune our Elasticsearch clusters, optimize Prometheus and VictoriaMetrics storage, and ensure our OpenTelemetry implementation can handle peak traffic without missing a beat.
- Reliability and Engineering : You will participate in on-call rotations, but your primary focus will be engineering solutions that stop alerts from firing in the first place. You will help us upgrade our stack to the latest versions and ensure our platform remains secure and performant. You will improve the self-service experience by implementing automated guardrails and quota management to prevent noisy tenants from destabilizing the platform, while designing safer API access patterns for our users.
Требования
- 10+ years of experience in the observability domain or in a relevant platform/infrastructure domain.
- Observability Stack Expertise : You have hands-on experience operating core telemetry data stores at scale e.g. Elasticsearch/Opensearch/VictoriaLogs/Clickhouse for logging, Prometheus/ VictoriaMetrics for metrics and Grafana Tempo for distributed tracing.
- Linux Experience : You understand the operating system at a kernel level and can debug complex networking, file system, and performance issues on both bare metal and virtualized hardware .
- Production Kubernetes Experience: Proven hands-on experience operating, and troubleshooting production workloads on Kubernetes (on-prem and/or cloud), including strong day-to-day use of kubectl and Kubernetes primitives (e.g. Namespaces, Pods, Deployments/StatefulSets, Services, Ingress, ConfigMaps/Secrets)
- Software Engineering Mindset: You are proficient in Go or Python and do not just write scripts; you build tools and automation platforms that treat infrastructure as code.
Будет плюсом
- Experience with large scale, multi tenant isolation and quota or cost governance approaches for telemetry platforms.
- Familiarity with regulated environments where security, audibility, and data handling requirements shape platform design decisions.
