YOUR CANDIDATE JOURNEY
Discover what to expect during your journey as a candidate with us.
So met hing 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 to warm 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.

Experience implementing AIOps workflows, including predictive alerting, anomaly detection, automated remediation, and incident automation
Experience building operational and executive dashboards and implementing SLOs and SLAs
Experience working in Agile environments with sprint-based delivery

Experience with Dynatrace Intelligence, including Dynatrace Assist, Intelligence Agents, MCP Server integration, and Dynatrace Apps development using the App Toolkit
Experience deploying and building observability platforms from scratch in government cloud environments such as AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, or IL4/IL5, including air‑gapped, restricted network, and STIG-hardened deployments
Experience building self‑service onboarding portals for application team observability adoption
Experience with open‑source observability tooling, including OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK/EFK
Experience with FinOps practices, containerization, and cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP
Experience operating Splunk and Splunk Enterprise Security (SIEM), Cribl, and SolarWinds at enterprise scale
