DevOps Engineer

Role Purpose

As a DevOps Engineer specializing in observability, you are responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing telemetry solutions within a large-scale financial services environment. You enable engineering teams to gain deep insights into system performance, reliability, and operational health through modern observability practices.

You play a key role in building a standardized observability framework using OpenTelemetry, supporting distributed systems across cloud-native platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement observability solutions using OpenTelemetry for metrics, logs, and traces
• Build and maintain telemetry pipelines across distributed, cloud-based systems
• Integrate observability tooling within Kubernetes environments and CI/CD pipelines
• Collaborate with engineering teams to improve monitoring, alerting, and incident response
• Define and enforce observability standards and best practices across teams
• Optimize system reliability and performance through data-driven insights
• Contribute to automation and infrastructure as code for scalable platform solutions

Candidate Profile

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in IT, engineering, or a related field
• Proven experience in DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering roles
• Hands-on experience with OpenTelemetry and modern observability stacks
• Strong knowledge of Kubernetes and cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
• Experience with tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or similar monitoring solutions
• Familiarity with CI/CD, automation, and infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform)
• Strong analytical skills and a proactive, solution-oriented mindset

Success Measures

• Reliable and scalable observability platform adoption across teams
• Improved system visibility, reduced incident resolution time, and increased platform stability
• Standardized telemetry practices across engineering domains
• Effective collaboration with stakeholders leading to continuous improvement

Working Environment

You will operate within a large, international financial institution undergoing a digital and cloud transformation. The environment is collaborative, agile, and focused on innovation, reliability, and continuous improvement.
