Location : USA -Remote : candidates to work with the India team (time zone)
Type of Job : Contract : 12 Months

Please set the expectation with the candidate that they will be working closely with the India-based development team. As a result, they will be required to maintain approximately 3 4 hours of overlap with the India team each day to support effective collaboration and communication.
Must-haves:
- Hands-on OpenTelemetry OTel Collector and OTTL, plus normalizing telemetry to OTel semantic conventions
- Strong Java + Spring / Spring Boot microservices (built in production)
- Multi-tenant, distributed SaaS platform engineering
- Building scalable observability platforms with large-scale log processing and deriving inference
- Deep streaming / data-pipeline work Kafka + Kinesis / Event Hub / PubSub; Flink / Kafka Streams; data warehousing and analytics
- Multi-cloud ingestion CloudTrail, Azure Monitor, Google Cloud Platform Audit Logs, Splunk, Sentinel, API logs

Nice-to-haves:
- Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code
The strongest profiles lead with what they've built shipping an observability or telemetry platform to production rather than SIEM operations or security governance. That's the filter that best separates fit from near-fit here.
