The role works closely with platform, infrastructure, and application teams.
Key responsibilities:
• Design, build, and operate observability platforms based on Grafana and Prometheus
• Define and maintain metrics standards, dashboards, alerts, and SLOs
• Improve signal quality: reduce alert noise, tune thresholds, and improve runbooks
• Support incident response by providing actionable telemetry and post-incident analysis
• Integrate metrics, logs, and traces across distributed systems
• Work with engineering teams to instrument services correctly
• Automate observability configuration using infrastructure as code
• Contribute to reliability improvements through capacity planning and performance analysis
• Required skills and experience
• Strong experience with Prometheus (scraping, federation, recording rules, alerting)
• Strong experience with Grafana (dashboards, alerting, templating, RBAC)
• Solid Linux and networking fundamentals
• Experience running observability stacks in Kubernetes environments
• Infrastructure as code experience (Terraform preferred)
• Familiarity with incident management and on-call practices
• Ability to debug production systems using metrics and logs
Nice to have:
• Experience with logs and traces (e.g. Loki, Tempo, OpenTelemetry)
• Experience operating large-scale or multi-cluster Kubernetes platforms
• Experience with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, OCI)
• Exposure to SRE concepts such as error budgets and SLO-driven prioritisation
What success looks like
• Engineers trust dashboards and alerts to reflect system health
• Incidents are detected earlier and diagnosed faster
• Alert fatigue is reduced and on-call quality improves
