Senior Observability Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Opportunity:

Something breaks at 2 AM. Today, a human gets paged. Tomorrow, an AI agent detects the anomaly, correlates the root cause, triggers the remediation, and closes the ticket, all before the first cup of coffee. You are the engineer who builds that tomorrow.

We are seeking a senior Observability Engineer with expertise in both AI technologies and enterprise performance monitoring. This role combines hands-on engineering with AIOps implementation to deliver full-stack visibility across 250+ services. You will lead efforts to implement predictive monitoring and self-healing capabilities that drive down operational costs while increasing system availability by leveraging AI to triage and resolve incidents. You will mentor and supervise engineers, own technical quality, and push the program toward AI-driven observability with opportunities to build new observability platforms from the ground up as we expand into new environments.Due to the nature of work performed within this facility, U.S. citizenship is required.

Join us. The world can't wait.

• 5+ years of experience in enterprise observability, monitoring, and site reliability engineering

• Experience architecting and operating Dynatrace for full-stack observability, including agent deployment, distributed tracing, log management, synthetic monitoring, and digital experience monitoring
