  • AI-Driven Insights: Harness Davis AI for causal analysis and root cause identification; develop custom dashboards, alerting profiles, and auto-remediation workflows to minimize MTTR.
  • End-User Experience: Implement Real User Monitoring (RUM) and Synthetic Monitoring to analyze user journeys and establish performance KPIs.
  • Automation & DevOps: Drive "Observability as Code" by building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins) and automating infrastructure via Terraform, CloudFormation, or AWS CDK.
  • Log Management: Manage high-volume log ingest pipelines and processing rules using Dynatrace Grail and Log Management features.
  • SRE Advocacy: Define and monitor SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets while participating in on-call rotations and developing detailed RCA documentation.
Qualifications:
  • Extensive Expertise: 9+ years of hands-on experience specifically focused on Dynatrace implementation and management at an enterprise scale.
  • Foundational Experience: 5+ years in SRE, DevOps, or Cloud Infrastructure roles, with deep knowledge of Linux systems and networking.
  • Cloud Proficiency: Advanced experience navigating and securing AWS and Azure environments.
  • Automation Skills: Strong proficiency in Python or similar scripting languages for building self-service tooling and automation.
  • Tooling Integration: Proven ability to integrate observability stacks with ITSM and communication tools like ServiceNow, PagerDuty, and Microsoft Teams.
  • Methodology: Experience working within a SAFe Agile delivery environment and a solid understanding of the ITIL framework.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Location/Flexibility: Ability to work on-site in the Washington, DC area as required and provide off-hours support for critical production incidents.
