About the Job
As a Senior Observability Engineer, you will own the evolution of Keeper’s observability platform, from data ingestion and normalization to alerting strategies and operational dashboards. Your focus will be on reducing noise, improving detection quality, and enabling faster, more confident decision-making across SOC, NOC, Infrastructure, and Engineering teams. This role emphasizes outcomes over dashboards, and requires strong technical judgment, cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to design observability systems that scale with both platform growth and threat complexity.
Responsibilities
Design, build, and maintain observability platforms using tools such as Splunk, Datadog, Rapid7, and similar ecosystems
Ingest, normalize, and enrich diverse telemetry sources, including application telemetry, cloud and infrastructure logs, network data, and security events
Architect alerts and dashboards that prioritize actionable signal over noise for SOC, NOC, Infrastructure, and Engineering teams
Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to understand how data is consumed and what “actionable” means in real operational contexts
Define and enforce telemetry standards and best practices to ensure consistency, scalability, and long-term maintainability
Continuously improve detection and monitoring maturity by reducing alert fatigue and improving time-to-detect and time-to-respond
Anticipate future observability needs based on platform scale, architectural changes, and evolving threat and reliability landscapes
Automate data enrichment and operational workflows where appropriate to improve context and response efficiency
Requirements
6+ years of experience in observability, monitoring, SIEM, or security analytics engineering roles
Deep hands-on experience working with platforms such as Splunk, Datadog, Rapid7, or equivalent tools
Proven ability to onboard and manage large, diverse telemetry datasets across applications, infrastructure, networks, and security tooling
Strong understanding of logs, metrics, traces, events, and alerting strategies
Experience designing dashboards and alerts for operational decision-making rather than reporting
Experience supporting or working closely with SOC, NOC, Infrastructure, and Engineering teams
Ability to translate complex technical data into clear, actionable insight
Strong problem-solving skills and a bias toward building scalable, maintainable systems
Preferred Qualifications
Experience operating in cloud-native, high-scale SaaS environments
Exposure to detection engineering, incident response, or threat analytics
Experience with automation, data enrichment pipelines, APIs, or SOAR tooling
Prior ownership of observability or telemetry platforms at scale
Benefits
