This role will focus on configuring and managing Open Telemetry, Prometheus, Loki, and Tempo, along with setting up robust alerting systems across all services — including Azure infrastructure and MSSQL databases. You will work closely with developers, DevOps, and infrastructure teams to ensure the performance, reliability, and visibility of our .NET Core applications and cloud services. Key Responsibilities Observability Platform Implementation: Design and maintain distributed tracing, metrics, and logging using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Loki, and Tempo. Ensure complete instrumentation of .NET Core applications for end-to-end visibility. Implement telemetry pipelines for application logs, performance metrics, and traces. Monitoring & Alerting Develop and manage SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets. Create actionable, noise-free alerts using Prometheus Alertmanager and Azure Monitor. Monitor key infrastructure components, applications, and databases with a focus on reliability and performance. Azure & Infrastructure Integration: Integrate Azure services (App Services, VMs, Storage, etc.) with the observability stack. Configure monitoring for MSSQL databases, including performance tuning metrics and health indicators. Use Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and custom exporters where necessary. Automation & DevOps Automate observability configurations using Terraform, PowerShell, or other IaC tools. Integrate telemetry validation and health checks into CI/CD pipelines. Maintain observability as code for repeatable deployments and easy scaling. Resilience & Reliability Engineering: Conduct capacity planning to anticipate scaling needs based on usage patterns and growth. Define and implement disaster recovery strategies for critical Azure-hosted services and databases. Perform load and stress testing to identify performance bottlenecks and validate infrastructure limits. Support release engineering by integrating observability checks and rollback strategies in CI/CD pipelines. Apply chaos engineering practices in lower environments to uncover potential reliability risks proactively. Collaboration & Documentation: Partner with engineering teams to promote observability best practices in .NET Core development. Create dashboards (Grafana preferred) and runbooks for system insights and incident response. Document monitoring standards, troubleshooting guides, and onboarding materials. Required Skills And Experience 4+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or infrastructure-focused roles. Deep experience with .NET Core application observability using OpenTelemetry. Proficiency with Prometheus, Loki, Tempo, and related observability tools. Strong background in Azure infrastructure monitoring, including App Services and VMs. Hands-on experience monitoring MSSQL databases (deadlocks, query performance, etc.). Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep) and scripting (PowerShell, Bash). Experience building and tuning alerts, dashboards, and metrics for production systems. Preferred Qualifications Azure certifications (e.g., AZ-104, AZ-400). Experience with Grafana, Azure Monitor, and Log Analytics integration. Familiarity with distributed systems and microservice architectures. Prior experience in high-availability, regulated, or customer-facing environments. Show more Show less
