Key ResponsibilitiesEnterprise Observability Platform Engineering

• Serve as the senior SME for enterprise observability, defining architectures, standards, integration patterns, and reusable solutions

• Design and optimize observability across cloud, on-prem infrastructure, networks, Kubernetes, containers, applications, APIs, databases, middleware, and enterprise platforms

• Standardize metrics, logs, traces, events, topology, dashboards, alerting, instrumentation, and service health

• Provide technical leadership for LogicMonitor, Splunk, OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, Tempo, VictoriaMetrics, Loki, and related technologies

• Lead OpenTelemetry adoption, including instrumentation, collectors, telemetry pipelines, distributed tracing, context propagation, and vendor-neutral standards

• Design telemetry pipelines that route metrics, logs, and traces across multiple platforms

• Develop API-driven and Observability-as-Code capabilities for onboarding, configuration, validation, and lifecycle management

• Establish governance for RBAC, telemetry standards, alerting, retention, integrations, configuration management, and data lifecycle

• Improve observability coverage, telemetry quality, scalability, reliability, performance, and cost efficiency

Observability Automation, AIOps & Reliability

• Drive automation and self-service through APIs, Infrastructure-as-Code, CI/CD, GitOps, and reusable observability pattern

• Integrate Edwin AI and AIOps capabilities for anomaly detection, event correlation, root-cause analysis, investigation, and operational intelligence

• Connect metrics, logs, traces, events, topology, CMDB, service ownership, and operational context to deliver end-to-end visibility

• Establish reliability standards including SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, monitoring coverage, alert quality, MTTD, and MTTR

• Reduce alert fatigue through intelligent correlation, dynamic thresholds, suppression, automation, and event-management practices

• Evaluate eBPF, continuous profiling, Kubernetes observability, dependency mapping, and auto-instrumentation

• Advance operations from reactive monitoring toward proactive and predictive operations

Global Technical Leadership

• Collaborate with engineering and operations teams across North America, Europe, and Asia

• Lead architecture reviews, platform evaluations, workshops, and technical working sessions

• Influence observability strategy and standards across teams without direct authority

• Mentor engineers and promote observability, SRE, and reliability best practices

• Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend adoption based on interoperability, scalability, business value, and cost

• Translate strategy into standards, reference architectures, and reusable implementation patterns

Reasonable schedule flexibility is required to support global collaboration.
