  • Implement parsing, enrichment, redaction, sampling, and suppression logic, and validate pipelines through testing and previewing outputs
  • Manage Cribl Packs, versioning, and promotions across environments, leveraging Git-based configuration workflows
  • Optimize telemetry data flow for cost and performance using filtering, routing-by-criteria, event shaping, and load balancing
  • Onboard new data sources end-to-end with documentation, standards, and appropriate access controls
  • Implement data quality controls such as field extraction standards, normalization approaches, schema alignment, and sensitive data redaction
  • Automate configuration deployment and validation using scripts and continuous integration/continuous delivery practices where applicable
  • Participate in incident triage and ingestion troubleshooting and contribute to an on-call rotation with support from senior engineers

Required qualifications, capabilities and skills

  • Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 2+ years applied experience
  • 4+ years of software engineering, site reliability engineering, or DevOps applied experience
  • Experience supporting Splunk fundamentals, including indexes, sourcetypes, inputs, props/transforms, and SPL for searches, alerts, and dashboards
  • Experience supporting Cribl Stream and/or Edge concepts, including sources, destinations, routes, pipelines, functions, and Packs
  • Experience with scripting or automation using Python, Bash, or PowerShell
  • Working knowledge of Linux and Git-based workflows
  • Understanding of logging and metrics fundamentals, including structured logging, log levels, cardinality, sampling, retention, and backpressure
  • Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to learn and operate effectively in production environments

Preferred qualifications, capabilities and skills

  • Experience with Splunk advanced capabilities such as scheduled searches, macros, lookups, KV store, performance tuning, and deployment operations
  • Experience designing Cribl pipelines using functions such as parsing, evaluation, redaction, serialization, sampling, suppression, and regular expression-based extraction
  • Experience integrating common observability sources and destinations such as syslog, Windows Event Forwarding, Fluent Bit, Kafka, Amazon S3, Splunk HTTP Event Collector, Elastic, or Datadog
  • Exposure to additional observability tools such as Grafana or Elastic
  • Experience with continuous integration/continuous delivery for observability assets and configuration-as-code with automated validation
  • Basic networking and security knowledge, including TLS, certificates, proxies, firewalls, HTTP headers, and authentication patterns
