Summary

Role Overview
 
We are seeking a Senior Cloud Engineer to join the Cloud & Platform Engineering (CAPE) team supporting Fidelity’s next-generation Observability Platform. The role focuses on building and operating a scalable observability pipeline that powers monitoring, alerting, and system health visibility across cloud-native applications.
 
You will work on a shared services platform leveraging modern cloud, container, and observability technologies with a strong focus on OpenTelemetry-based architectures.
 
Key Responsibilities
  • Build and support enterprise-grade observability platforms (not just dashboard usage)
  • Develop and enhance observability agents and telemetry pipelines (logs, metrics, traces)
  • Design and maintain logging, metrics, and tracing frameworks for distributed systems
  • Deploy and manage cloud-native observability tools (Datadog, Splunk, ELK)
  • Build and support OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation and data pipelines
  • Create dashboards, alerts, and monitoring solutions for platform health and reliability
  • Work with Kubernetes-based environments to deploy and operate observability services
  • Support CI/CD pipelines for observability components and automation workflows
  • Troubleshoot system and application performance issues using telemetry data
  • Collaborate with platform engineering teams on scalability, reliability, and security
Must-Have Skills
  • Strong experience building observability platforms (Datadog / Splunk / ELK) – engineering/build experience, not just usage
  • Hands-on experience with logs, metrics, traces, and telemetry pipelines
  • Strong AWS cloud expertise
  • Kubernetes (EKS) and Docker containerization experience
  • CI/CD experience using Jenkins or GitHub Actions
  • Programming experience in Python, Go, or Java
  • Strong understanding of logging and metrics data models in distributed systems
Nice to Have
  • Hands-on experience with OpenTelemetry (OTel)
  • Experience building or enhancing observability agents
  • Exposure to security and compliance in cloud environments
  • Experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Fluentd/FluentBit, Jaeger, or similar tools
