Customer expectations are now shifting. Teams don't just want more dashboards; they want help getting from a signal to a resolution, understanding what's broken, why, what's impacted, and what to do next. As AI agents move into production operations, this role owns how Sumo Logic brings intelligent, agent-assisted investigation and reliability workflows to customers, grounded in evidence, context, and enterprise governance.\nThis is a senior, high-ownership role. It requires genuine observability domain background. You should have lived in this space and understand how monitoring, troubleshooting, and reliability actually work, combined with the ambition to define a new category of experience on top of it.\nWhat You Will Own\nThe current data experiences. Log Search, Live Tail, query and query optimization, Metrics Search, Tracing, Dashboards, and the data-experience UI. This is a live, revenue-generating product with real customers, and keeping it strong is part of the job. You own its health, roadmap, and competitiveness today while steering it toward an AI-native future, focusing new investment where it strengthens investigation, speed, and value for both new and power users.\nThe reliability and alerting surface. Monitors, Alerts, SLOs, Scheduled Searches, and the reliability workflows around them. You will own alerting accuracy, noise reduction, and operational health signals both as capabilities customers depend on today and as the foundation for more automated, agent-assisted detection and investigation.\nThe agentic investigation experience. You will define how a user moves from a search, a monitor, a dashboard, or an alert to likely cause faster, with supporting evidence. This means productizing investigation workflows that reason across logs, metrics, traces, monitors, dashboards, and related context, and evolving them from reactive troubleshooting toward more proactive detection over time.\nWhat You Will Be Doing\nSet the multi-quarter vision for Sumo Logic's investigation and reliability experiences, and turn it into a roadmap engineering can execute against.\nOwn the roadmap, health, and competitiveness of the current data and reliability product surfaces.\nDefine how search, metrics, tracing, dashboards, monitors, alerts, and SLOs evolve from human-navigated tools into more intuitive, AI-assisted experiences.\nProductize investigation workflows that reason across telemetry and related operational context, and surface findings customers can act on.\nOwn alerting accuracy, noise reduction, and operational health signals.\nShape how skills, tools, and agents are built on top of the data surfaces, and ensure they respect enterprise controls such as RBAC, audit, cost limits, and approvals.\nWork with engineering and architecture on query execution, performance, and reliability at enterprise scale.\nTranslate strategy into clear PRDs, proposals, user stories, acceptance criteria, and phased rollout plans.\nUse telemetry to understand how customers search, investigate, and configure alerts, and where they hit friction, latency, false positives, or cost.\nCreate leadership-facing proposals that frame tradeoffs across customer demand, governance, performance, cost, and long-term architecture.\nWhat You Bring\n8+ years of product management experience with real observability or monitoring domain background. You have owned products in observability, monitoring, incident response, APM, or a closely adjacent operational-telemetry space. This is a hard requirement.\nDeep, first-hand understanding of the observability surface area including logs, metrics, traces, dashboards, monitors, alerts, and SLOs, and of how engineers and operators actually investigate incidents and decide what to trust.\nProven ability to run a live, at-scale product, owning the roadmap, health, and competitiveness of shipping surfaces while driving a larger transformation.\nA track record of owning broad, technically deep surfaces and setting direction that other teams build on.\nFamiliarity with how AI and agents are changing data interaction, including natural-language investigation, tools, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop action, or the ability to ramp quickly.\nStrong technical instincts around query engines, time-series and trace data, and alerting systems, plus the judgment to know where an AI-assisted experience should replace a manual flow and where depth must stay.\nStrong analytical skills and comfort using telemetry, dashboards, SQL, and usage data to understand adoption, friction, reliability, and cost.\nExcellent communication across technical and business audiences, and the ability to write clear proposals, decision docs, PRDs, and acceptance criteria.\nHigh ownership and drive to make progress across a large, ambiguous, fast-moving surface.\nMust-Have Qualities\nRuns today, builds tomorrow. Keeps a live product healthy and competitive while reinventing it, and knows what to sustain and what to rebuild.\nDeep observability judgment. Understands search, metrics, tracing, and alerting well enough to make hard architecture and tradeoff calls with engineering.\nOperator empathy. Knows what makes an alert trustworthy, an investigation fast, and a recommendation credible enough to act on.\nGovernance-minded. Treats RBAC, audit, cost, and approvals as part of the product.\nSets direction. Defines a vision for a broad area and rallies teams around it.\nAnalytical. Uses data to prioritize, validate, and refine decisions.\nHigh drive and ownership. Pushes through ambiguity across a large surface and drives execution to conclusion.\nTradeoff thinker. Frames options and recommendations clearly for leadership.\nAbout Us\nSumo Logic, Inc. helps make the digital world secure, fast, and reliable by unifying critical security and operational data through its Intelligent Operations Platform.
