Your role in the team
- As a Site Reliability Engineer with a focus on Observability, you will play a key role in ensuring transparency, stability, and reliability of our distributed cloud, edge, and Kubernetes platforms.
- You will play a central role in the design, implementation, and continuous development of modern observability solutions, laying the foundation for reliable operation of complex, cloud-native infrastructures.
- With your expertise in OpenTelemetry, Distributed Tracing, and modern telemetry architectures, you develop and operate powerful pipelines for metrics, logs, and traces.
- Thereby, you integrate the OpenTelemetry Collector, OTLP as well as SDKs and auto-instrumentation into existing platforms and create seamless end-to-end observability across distributed applications and services.
- They implement and operate Jaeger as a central platform for Distributed Tracing and develop correlation mechanisms between logs, metrics, and traces to quickly identify root causes of errors and transparently visualize complex dependencies within distributed systems.
- Furthermore, you integrate security, infrastructure, and platform events into centralized SIEM solutions and develop standardized telemetry and instrumentation concepts for Kubernetes and cloud-native platforms.
- With your programming skills in Go, Python, or Shell, you automate integration and operational processes and make a significant contribution to the further development of a scalable, highly available, and future-proof observability platform for modern distributed infrastructures.
Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- Very good knowledge of OpenTelemetry, especially in handling the OpenTelemetry Collector, OTLP, SDKs, and auto-instrumentation.
- Solid knowledge in the integration of SIEM solutions, Security Event Management, as well as the use of CEF- and Syslog-based protocols.
- Good programming skills in Go, Python, or Shell for implementing telemetry, integration, and automation tasks.
- Strong understanding of IT security and security awareness.
- Analytical and structured way of working.
- Very good command of German, both spoken and written (C1 level).
Experience
- Extensive experience with Distributed Tracing, including Span Correlation, Context Propagation, and Sampling Strategies.
- Experience in the development and operation of Jaeger, particularly regarding Trace Storage, indexing, and query optimization.
- Experience in Kubernetes observability, cloud-native platforms, and modern telemetry architectures.
- Experience in Site Reliability Engineering or infrastructure operations.
What we offer
- You can expect a challenging role in the environment of modern Cloud-Native, Kubernetes, Edge, and Observability technologies.
- In this position, you will actively contribute to the development of a future-proof observability platform and work on innovative solutions for telemetry, distributed tracing, and security monitoring in distributed infrastructures.
- Current open-source technologies such as OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, and modern cloud-native tools are used to continuously improve transparency and reliability of complex platforms.
- You work in a technically demanding environment with a high degree of creative freedom and make a significant contribution to the stability, security, and scalability of mission-critical systems.
