Description

At Uni Systems, we are working towards turning digital visions into reality. We are continuously growing, and we are looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our UniQue team!

What will you be bringing to the team?

  • Observability Platform Design & Architecture:
    • You will design and implement scalable and robust observability architectures for complex distributed systems, including microservices, cloud-native environments (Kubernetes, serverless), and traditional infrastructure.
    • You will define and enforce standards and best practices for telemetry data (metrics, logs, traces) collection, processing, storage, and visualization.
    • You will also evaluate, select, and integrate new observability tools and technologies into the existing ecosystem.
  • Instrumentation & Data Collection:
    • You will be working directly with development and Back Office teams to implement pervasive instrumentation within applications and infrastructure, using frameworks like OpenTelemetry.
    • You will develop custom exporters, agents, or integrations to collect specific telemetry data from various sources.
    • You will also configure and optimize data pipelines for efficient ingestion and routing of metrics, logs, and traces.
  • Tooling Implementation & Management:
    • Involved in hands-on deployment, configuration, and administration of observability platforms.
    • Support the automation of the deployment and management of observability infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools (e.g. Terraform).
    • Develop custom dashboards, alerts, and reports to provide actionable insights into system health and performance.
  • Performance Analysis & Troubleshooting:
    • You will support and coach teams for them to identify performance bottlenecks, anomalies, and potential issues by analysing observability data.
    • Support and coach teams for them to leverage observability tools to quickly pinpoint root causes and facilitate rapid resolution.
    • Support and coach teams for them to conduct in-depth performance analysis, capacity planning, and resource optimization based on collected telemetry.
    • Support and coach teams for them to implement anomaly detection and predictive analytics to anticipate and prevent issues.
  • Automation & Scripting:
    • You will need to develop scripts and automation tools to streamline observability workflows, integrate systems, and enhance operational efficiency.
  • Mentoring & Knowledge Sharing:
    • You will act as a subject matter expert, providing technical guidance and mentorship to teams on observability best practices, tools, and troubleshooting techniques.
    • Create detailed technical documentation, runbooks, and playbooks.
    • Conduct training sessions and workshops to upskill development and operations teams on observability concepts and tools.
  • Collaboration & Cross-functional Support:
    • You'll be in close collaboration with development and operations to embed observability throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
    • Work with stakeholders to define Service Level Indicators (SLIs) and Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and build dashboards to track adherence.
Requirements

What do you need to succeed in this position?

  • Bachelor's in Computer Science, Software Engineering, DevOps, or a related technical discipline.
  • A minimum of 5-8+ years of progressive experience in a hands-on technical role, with a significant focus on observability, monitoring, or DevOps.
  • Minimum of 3-5 years of dedicated experience in designing, implementing, and managing observability solutions in production environments.
  • Proven track record of architecting and delivering scalable and resilient observability platforms.
  • Extensive experience with incident response and post-mortem analysis.
  • Expert-level understanding of Observability Principles: Deep knowledge of the "three pillars" (metrics, logs, traces), distributed tracing, event correlation, and their application in complex systems.
  • Deep Hands-on Expertise with Observability Tools: Proven proficiency in deploying, configuring, and optimizing multiple leading observability platforms (e.g., Prometheus/Grafana, ELK Stack, Jaeger/ OpenTelemetry.
  • Cloud-Native & Distributed Systems Expertise: In-depth understanding and hands-on experience with cloud platforms (Azure), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), service mesh, and microservices architectures.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Proficient in using tools like Terraform for automating infrastructure provisioning and configuration related to observability.
  • Linux System Administration & Networking: Strong grasp of Linux operating systems, networking protocols, and system-level troubleshooting.
  • Database Knowledge: Familiarity with time-series databases (e.g. Prometheus, InfluxDB) and other relevant data stores for observability data.
  • Troubleshooting & Root Cause Analysis: Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills, with a systematic approach to diagnosing complex technical issues.
  • Relevant industry certifications in cloud platforms, Kubernetes, or specific observability tools are highly valued.
  • A strong command of the English language is mandatory (speaking, writing)
