## Description

We are a globally distributed team inside Adobe Developer Platforms, responsible for the observability platform that Adobe's engineering ecosystem runs on. This platform spans 50,000+ nodes, processes billions of OTel events daily, and features an auth service built in Go that handles 15,000 req/sec.

As an Observability Platform Engineer, you will compose, build, and run Adobe's observability platform at scale. Your responsibilities will include:

- Writing Go and Python code to extend OpenTelemetry Collector receivers, processors, and exporters, and contributing to open-source projects

- Building internal services, APIs, and tooling around OpenTelemetry

- Driving cost optimisation by analysing pipeline data, building guardrails, and engaging with engineering teams

- Developing developer-facing tooling and services, including AI-powered insights from high-volume telemetry and observability for AI and agent-based systems

- Owning SLOs and SLIs for a platform relied on by thousands of engineers daily

- Leading on-call and incident response for high-severity issues

To succeed in this role, you will need:

- Strong, hands-on experience with Go and/or Python

- 5–8+ years of experience building and owning production software at scale, ideally platform or infrastructure products used by other engineers

- Experience with OpenTelemetry, including extending collectors and instrumenting applications with SDKs

- Familiarity with large-scale logging infrastructure, such as Splunk, ClickHouse, New Relic, Prometheus, and LangSmith

- Experience developing, deploying, and running distributed applications on cloud platforms, with container and orchestration technologies like Docker and Kubernetes

- Comfort with owning on-call across a multi-tool observability stack, including leading incident response

Nice to have:

- Experience evaluating and prototyping alternative Observability platforms

- Experience with other Observability tooling like Grafana, Cortex, ElasticSearch, DataDog, VictoriaMetrics, and Mimir

- TypeScript/React experience, as we ship an observability plugin in Adobe's Developer Home

- Experience instrumenting AI/LLM or agent-based systems
