• Lead or support the migration of application telemetry, dashboards, and alerts from Splunk to New Relic.
• Collaborate with DevOps teams to embed monitoring and alerting into CI/CD pipelines.
• Automate observability configurations and deployments using Terraform, Python, or Bash.
• Develop dashboards, alerts, and service‑level indicators to proactively monitor application health.

• Experience with event‑driven systems and messaging technologies like Kafka or RabbitMQ.
• Practical experience integrating observability into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI).
• Proficiency in scripting (Python, Bash, YAML) for automation and deployment workflows.
• Working knowledge of Terraform for infrastructure provisioning and configuration management.
• Experience deploying and monitoring applications on AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Familiarity with Docker and Kubernetes for containerized and microservices environments.
• Experience with Git workflows (branching, merging, conflict resolution).
• Strong troubleshooting, debugging, and performance optimization skills.
• Exposure to incident management and SLO/SLI‑based observability practices.
• (Nice to have) Prior involvement in Splunk to New Relic migration initiatives.
