About this job
Nordic Investin is recruiting a Senior Observability Platform Engineer on behalf of one of our partner companies. You want logs, metrics and traces to answer engineering questions instead of creating another noisy system to maintain. The partner is building a shared observability capability for workloads across established and new developer platforms. You will design, implement and operate the stack while helping teams adopt useful standards. The platform is treated as a service used by engineers and business teams. Success will be measured through safer change, lower operational friction and clearer ownership rather than the number of tools introduced. How you will work The work combines planned platform development with investigation of real production behaviour. You will collaborate with application teams, security and operations, using their feedback to decide what should become a shared service, an automated control or clear documentation. Ownership continues after the first release. As a senior colleague, you will own substantial outcomes and help others make stronger decisions. You are expected to recognise risk early, communicate it without drama and move work forward with practical alternatives. The role still includes hands on delivery; seniority here means broader judgement, not distance from the work. What you will do Build and operate scalable telemetry collection and storage. Develop OpenTelemetry patterns for applications and infrastructure. Design dashboards, alerting and service health views. Improve cost, retention and cardinality controls. Create self service integrations and practical documentation. Advocate for observability through pairing, examples and incident learning. What you will bring Strong hands on platform or SRE experience. Production knowledge of metrics, logs and distributed tracing. Experience with tools such as Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, Tempo, Elastic or Datadog. Kubernetes and cloud platform knowledge. Software development or advanced automation ability. Confidence working as both builder and developer advocate. Experience that would add value Large multi tenant observability platforms. OpenTelemetry collector development. Experience migrating between monitoring stacks. A background that can succeed here Your background may span SRE, backend engineering, cloud platforms or operations. You understand that observability is a data and product problem as much as a tooling problem. What makes the opportunity interesting The platform is under active development, so your decisions will have immediate influence. The partner needs someone who enjoys implementing the stack, operating it under load and helping other engineers use it well. The exact partner, employment model, compensation, start date and working arrangement will be explained openly during the process. Nordic Investin will make sure you understand the context, expectations and decision path before you are asked to commit significant time. The recruitment conversation During the process, Nordic Investin will focus on concrete decisions you have made: the context you received, the alternatives you considered, the result you observed and what you would change today. You do not need every optional technology if your core experience transfers and you can explain how you would close the gap. How to apply Apply with your CV or LinkedIn profile and a short note describing the most relevant system, product or transformation you have helped deliver. Nordic Investin welcomes candidates with different routes into technology and assesses applicants on relevant capability, judgement and potential.
