Job Description

Johnson & Johnson’s Global Network Architecture, Automation, and Engineering organization is seeking a Senior Network Observability Engineer located in Raritan, New Jersey.

The Senior Network Observability Engineer will design, implement, and operate observability solutions that ensure the visibility, health, and performance of a global, highly available enterprise network. This role partners with the Senior Manager of Network Automation, Tools, and Observability to align delivery with strategic roadmaps and enterprise initiatives, while directly handling the lifecycle of network observability platforms, integrations, and data pipelines. The engineer ensures network telemetry both enriches enterprise observability and consumes insights from other domains. AI/ML, AIOps, and closed-loop automation are central to the role, enabling proactive detection, correlation, and automated resolution of issues.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and advance the global network observability service offering, accountable for design, deployment, operations, and lifecycle management.
  • Engineer and scale observability infrastructure (containerized deployments, Helm, clustering, load balancing, multi-region engines).
  • Partner with the network tools team to refine supporting services—enhancing, optimizing, or transitioning capabilities to align with the observability strategy.
  • Connect network observability with enterprise observability, ensuring insights flow both ways and enrich analysis across domains.
  • Apply AI/ML and AIOps to deliver anomaly detection, intelligent capacity insights, and drive closed-loop automation.
  • Extend telemetry coverage to include cloud-native data sources such as AWS CloudWatch, Azure NSG/VNet logs, and GCP flow logs.
  • Deliver actionable insights through dashboards, reports, and visualizations supporting incident response, change verification, capacity forecasting, and lifecycle reporting.
  • Engage with peers and end users to develop and implement new use cases and integrations that drive observability adoption and value.
  • Present observability concepts to executives, managers, and engineers in clear, accessible ways that turn technical details into actionable strategies.
  • Maintain compliance with ITIL processes (Incident, Change, Problem) and enterprise standards.

Qualifications

Education:

  • Bachelor’s degree in a technical field or equivalent experience.

Experience And Skills

Required:

  • 6 years of enterprise network engineering experience in global environments.
  • Experience as a technical owner of observability or monitoring platforms, including design, deployment, and operations.
  • Strong familiarity with network telemetry protocols and data types (syslog, SNMP, NetFlow/IPFIX, streaming telemetry).
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation (Python, Bash, or similar) for APIs, data pipelines, and workflow automation.
  • Familiarity with DevOps and Infrastructure-as-Code practices (CI/CD, Git-based version control, automated testing).
  • Clear communicator; translates intricate observability concepts across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Analytical, data-driven approach; connects observability insights to operational and business outcomes.

Preferred

  • Experience enabling closed-loop automation that integrates observability with network automation workflows.
  • Familiarity with multi-cloud observability, including AWS, Azure, and GCP telemetry.
  • Experience delivering dashboards and reporting for capacity forecasting, lifecycle management, and compliance.
  • Knowledge of enterprise observability ecosystems and cross-domain correlation strategies.
  • Exposure to AIOps and AI/ML-based anomaly detection or proactive modeling.
