Staff Observability Engineer at BairesDev

We’re looking for a Staff Observability Engineer with deep Java expertise and authoritative knowledge of how to architect observability platforms for large-scale distributed systems. You’ve designed high-cardinality metrics pipelines, built instrumentation frameworks that other engineering teams rely on, and you have the cross-team influence to define how observability is approached across an engineering organization. This is a platform engineering role — you’re building the telemetry infrastructure, not just running the systems it covers.

What You’ll Do

  • Architect and lead development of observability platform infrastructure in Java for large-scale distributed systems.
  • Design high-cardinality metrics pipelines and end-to-end tracing systems that operate reliably at enterprise scale.
  • Define observability platform standards and drive adoption of OpenTelemetry and related tooling across engineering teams.
  • Lead cross-team initiatives to improve distributed systems visibility and telemetry coverage.
  • Evaluate and introduce AI/ML approaches for anomaly detection within the observability platform.
  • Mentor engineers and support technical growth across the observability platform team.

What We Are Looking For

  • 8+ years of experience in IT roles.
  • 7+ years of experience with Java as a primary language in platform or infrastructure engineering.
  • Deep expertise in observability platform architecture including metrics pipelines, tracing, and instrumentation.
  • Experience designing high-cardinality metrics systems for distributed environments at scale.
  • Strong knowledge of OpenTelemetry and observability standards.
  • AI/ML experience for anomaly detection is a plus.
  • Demonstrated cross-team technical leadership at a Staff or equivalent level.
  • Advanced proficiency in English.

How we do make your work (and your life) easier:

  • Remote Work.
  • Excellent compensation in USD or your local currency if preferred
  • Hardware and software setup for you to work from home.
  • Flexible hours: create your own schedule.
  • Paid parental leaves, vacations, and national holidays.
  • Innovative and multicultural work environment: collaborate and learn from the global Top 1% of talent.
  • Supportive environment with mentorship, promotions, skill development, and diverse growth opportunities.

Join a global team where your unique talents can truly thrive and make a significant impact!
