It is built on a modular, standards-based stack using OpenTelemetry, Cribl, ClickHouse, Grafana, and Redis, with integration points to Datadog, BigPanda, and other tooling where needed.\nCribl is the routing and normalisation backbone of our telemetry pipeline, and engineers in this role will spend significant time designing, building, and evolving Cribl pipelines that move and shape data across the platform. The focus of this role is engineering delivery - designing, building, testing, and documenting features from the product backlog. This is a product engineering role, not an operational or support role.\nWHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:\nPlatform feature delivery:\n- Design, build, and maintain Cribl pipelines for telemetry routing, normalisation, enrichment, filtering, and fanout across multiple destinations.\n- Develop and manage Cribl packs to standardise pipeline logic across teams and signal types.\n- Deliver features and improvements from the platform product backlog, including design, implementation, testing, and documentation.\n- Implement and maintain OpenTelemetry collector configurations for diverse signal types, including metrics, logs, traces, and events.\n- Design and evolve ClickHouse schemas for telemetry storage and query performance.\n- Build Grafana dashboards and alerting configurations for platform and user team use cases.\nIntegration and infrastructure:\n- Develop integrations with Datadog, BigPanda, and other downstream systems via APIs and automation.\n- Write infrastructure-as-code using Terraform for platform components and integrations.\n- Contribute to CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows in collaboration with the DevOps engineer.\nStandards and collaboration:\n- Participate in code reviews, uphold engineering standards, and contribute to a healthy engineering culture.\n- Improve platform documentation, onboarding guides, and self-service processes that reduce dependency on direct support.\n- Work collaboratively with team members across multiple locations and time zones.\nWHAT YOU'LL BRING:\nEssential skills and experience:\n- Hands-on Cribl experience: building and operating pipelines, routes, and packs in a production environment.\n- Experience in software or platform engineering, with a track record of delivering production-quality features in a team environment.\n- Strong software engineering fundamentals: readable code, testing practices, version control, and active code review participation.\n- Experience developing integrations using REST APIs or event-driven patterns.\n- Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code using Terraform and with CI/CD pipeline tooling.\n- Understanding of telemetry concepts including metrics, logs, traces, cardinality, retention, and pipeline design.\n- Ability to work from a product-style backlog and engage proactively with requirements and acceptance criteria.\nDesirable skills and experience:\n- Experience with CriblCloud or Cribl Edge deployment patterns.\n- Experience building or contributing to internal platforms used by multiple engineering teams.\n- Experience with ClickHouse SQL or similar columnar or analytical query languages.\n- Familiarity with cloud environments or hybrid on-premises and cloud deployment patterns.\n- Experience with GitOps workflows and practices.\n- Experience in a regulated, financial services, or large enterprise technology environment.\nWHAT YOU'LL GET IN RETURN:\nThis is a great opportunity to build something that genuinely matters - a platform that improves how engineering teams across a global enterprise understand and operate their systems!\nWe are committed to building an inclusive workplace where people from all backgrounds can grow and do meaningful work.
