Responsibilities:
• Set the global strategy, architecture, operating model, and roadmap for Optiver’s observability platform.
• Lead and develop a globally distributed team of engineers, shaping team mandate, ways of working, and capability.
• Define what 'good observability' means at Optiver, including expectations for telemetry quality, instrumentation, alerting, dashboards, service health, and diagnostic workflows.
• Guide technical direction across telemetry collection, ingestion, storage, query, visualization, alerting, eventing, automation, and platform reliability.
• Improve the reliability, scalability, performance, and cost-effectiveness of the platform as adoption and telemetry volumes grow.
• Improve developer and operator experience through self-service workflows, golden paths, documentation, reusable patterns, APIs, dashboards, and investigation tooling.
• Partner with engineering teams to drive adoption.
Qualifications:
Required:
• Proven experience leading engineering, SRE, platform, infrastructure, or observability teams in a complex technical environment.
• Experience owning or shaping a platform capability, including strategy, roadmap, architecture, operating model, adoption, governance, and measurable outcomes.
• Deep understanding of modern observability practices across logs, metrics, traces, events, alerting, dashboards, telemetry pipelines, diagnostics, instrumentation quality, and service health.
• Experience designing or leading large-scale observability platforms, including ingest pipelines, storage backends, query systems, retention models, visualization, alerting, resilience, and scale-related trade-offs.
• Strong technical judgement, people leadership, and delivery discipline.
• Ability to influence without direct control across engineering teams.
• A pragmatic approach to platform adoption, balancing global standardisation with regional autonomy, local production needs, and existing systems.
