100% Remote. Possible team meeting this summer but not required to attend.
What does a day look like?
Sample Day 1The day starts with a quick run through email to see if any of the teams you partner with had any active questions about using Datadog to monitoring & observe their product. From there it's onto the daily Scrum call to give the team a quick update of where you stand. It's now 9:15AM EST and you're ready to work on your tasks which are focused on identifying Service Level Indicators (SLIs) for a team running a j2ee application in Azure. You leverage your experience & a bit of online research to determine the right items to identify key SLIs and create Service Level Objectives (SLOs) based off those in the Datadog tool. From there you build out an Azure DevOps pipeline to leverage Infrastructure as Code to create those SLOs. In the afternoon you partner with another team to build a dashboard to visualize the SLOs over different time periods. After that you coordinate a meeting for the following week to guide the team in reviewing how and why the SLOs were met or not.
Sample Day 2The day starts with a quick run through email to see if any of the teams you partner with had any active questions about the monitoring & observability you guided them in setting up. From there it's onto the daily Scrum call to give the team a quick update of where you stand. It's now 9:15AM EST and you're ready to work on your tasks which all relate to adding observability to Product X by integrating it into Datadog (tagging, base agent installation, integration setup, etc). After lunch you have a meeting with the team who own Product X where you run them through the basics of Datadog while showing them their product data (from QA). After that you're back to getting the jmx integration configured and working in the QA environment. Once done you look at the out of box dashboard for JMX and notice it doesn't have some key information. So, you go ahead and copy it to add a few metrics. Now it's almost the end of the day so you take a quick peek at what other tasks you have coming. Looks like with JMX done it is moving on to adding tracing to the application tomorrow then working with the team to configure their monitors next week (and validate their ServiceNow alert mapping & routing).
