- Lead technical strategy and hands-on development for observability, incident management, disaster recovery, and FinOps on a large-scale AWS and GCP cloud platform.
- Define, build, and improve monitoring and alerting systems to achieve 99.99% availability, reduce MTTD/MTTR, and automate incident response including AI-driven root cause analysis and self-healing capabilities.
- Manage cloud cost optimization and financial operations, collaborating with engineering, finance, and leadership to implement tagging, budgeting, and cost-saving measures across multiple teams.

- Strong hands-on expertise with observability tools (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) and proficiency in Go or Python for production tooling and automation.

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience; fluency in English; willingness to participate in global on-call rotations.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experienced technical leader able to influence multiple teams and drive cross-functional adoption of observability, reliability, and FinOps standards without direct management authority.
