Job Description
Role: Datadog Observability Architect (Senior / Lead)
A senior observability specialist who can architect Datadog end to end, set the standards, and mentor a cloud/CI-CD team that lacks deep Datadog expertise.
Must-have skills
- Deep, hands-on Datadog expertise at architect level (design, not just use) across APM, infrastructure monitoring, logs, synthetics, dashboards, and monitors.
- Observability fundamentals: metrics, logs, and traces, plus OpenTelemetry.
- SLO, SLI, and error-budget design.
- APM and Database Monitoring for root-cause analysis (SQL Server a strong plus).
- Alerting strategy and alert-noise reduction.
- Log and observability pipelines: routing, filtering, and cost control.
- Datadog cost optimization: ingestion, indexing, retention.
- Datadog managed as code with Terraform or OpenTofu.
- AWS environment experience.
- Integrations with CI/CD (Harness or similar), Jira or ServiceNow, and webhooks.
Nice-to-have
- Datadog and AWS certifications.
- SolarWinds-to-Datadog migration experience.
- Synthetic and end-to-end journey monitoring.
- Automation or self-healing (webhook-triggered pipelines).
- Scripting: PowerShell, SQL, Python.
- Regulated or financial-services background.
Experience-Level: roughly 8+ years in SRE, observability, or DevOps, with 4+ years hands-on Datadog at scale. Architect-level, comfortable leading a small pod and client-facing.
