Zusammenfassung

Darwoft is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to lead an observability migration from New Relic to OpenTelemetry. You will re-instrument applications, adjust manifests, and validate telemetry across a high-scale fintech platform while maintaining full monitoring coverage.

You will collaborate with global teams, work remotely (internationally), and contribute to modernizing core observability. This contractor role pays in USD and requires strong cloud observability experience.

Qualifikationen

• Proven experience in software engineering with proficiency in at least one modern language (Java, Python, Go, or JavaScript/TypeScript).
• Hands-on experience with OpenTelemetry (OTel) concepts, including distributed tracing, metrics, logs, and OTel Collector configurations.
• Deep experience with cloud observability paradigms and transitioning off legacy platforms like New Relic.
• Solid understanding of HTTP, APIs, environment-based configurations, and reading/modifying complex YAML/JSON manifests.
• Strong background in software testing, debugging, log analysis, and validating high-cardinality telemetry data.
• Familiarity with modern software delivery workflows (Git, PRs, CI/CD pipelines).

Aufgaben

• Migrate existing application instrumentation, tracing, and telemetry configurations from New Relic to OpenTelemetry.
• Update YAML configuration files, environment variables, and deployment manifests according to established architecture standards.
• Execute unit tests and validation suites to verify that telemetry is accurately generated, transformed, and exported to target backends.
• Perform telemetry gap analysis, comparing existing New Relic data against OTel outputs to identify missing traces, metrics, logs, or resource attributes.
• Assist in updating dashboards, monitoring documentation, and troubleshooting guides to reflect the OTel architecture.
• Investigate telemetry collection and export errors, identifying root causes and collaborating with core platform engineers on complex edge cases.
• Maintain clear tracking and reporting of implementation progress, edge cases, and potential migration risks.
