    • Drive research and experimentation with AI/ML/LLM techniques on Observability data, using these tools as a natural everyday companion in your work.
    • Build robust, automated event pipelines that correlate metrics, logs and traces to detect incidents, anomalies and patterns in complex systems.
    • Develop solutions for automated recovery and notification flows, integrating with Slack, JIRA and ServiceNow for incident creation and collaboration.
    • Contribute to and integrate with our open source Observability platform based on the Grafana stack (Grafana, Loki, Tempo, Mimir, OpenTelemetry) and our Splunk IT Service Intelligence platform or similar event analytics solutions.
    • Collaborate within an autonomous, self-organizing team, influencing both architecture and continuous delivery of Event Intelligence capabilities.

    WHAT YOU BRING
    • Strong experience with Event Management - this is a must.
    • 5+ years of professional experience in systems or software engineering.
    • You are inquisitive, innovative, and passionate about learning and sharing knowledge with others.
    • A Data Science and Data Engineering mindset, with proficiency in AI tools and methods.
    • Strong coding skills in Python or Golang, comfortable building production services and data/analytics tooling.
    • Solid expertise in AI/ML/LLM, Data Science and Data Engineering applied to real-world problems.
    • Experience with Observability stacks, ideally including Grafana and OpenTelemetry (or similar tools).
    • Experience with event analytics platforms such as Splunk Enterprise and Splunk ITSI, or similar solutions.
    • Experience integrating with ITSM and service management tools - we integrate with ServiceNow and JIRA, and expect experience in this area.
    • A DevOps & Cloud / SRE mindset, with operational experience on Kubernetes and hybrid infrastructure (GCP, Alicloud).
