Role overview for the Software Engineer (Monitoring Platform)
As a Software Engineer (Monitoring Platform) here at SRT, you will be part of a small team responsible for designing, building, and maintaining our productised monitoring and observability platform. This platform is deployed across geographically distributed on-premises sites worldwide, serving clients with varying infrastructure and WAN capabilities.
Rather than simply using Prometheus and Grafana, you will be engineering the frameworks, tooling, and configuration pipelines that make our monitoring platform consistent, maintainable, and scalable across dozens of deployments. You as a Software Engineer (Monitoring Platform) will work closely with a lead observability engineer who oversees the platform's architecture, and you will have the authority to architect monitoring solutions and specify changes to be implemented by other development teams.
We are fortunate to have a team of highly experienced engineers, including UX designers, who can provide support and guidance as we extend the platform's capabilities to serve both internal engineers and external end-users.
Please note - you will be required to come to our Cardiff office 1 day a week
