We are looking for a hands-on Technical Lead with strong Observability Architecture experience to support migrations from third-party observability tools to the SAP One Observability target stack.
Responsibilities
- Plan and technically lead migration front runners
- Design telemetry flows for metrics, traces and logs using OpenTelemetry
- Coordinate with SAP LoBs, BTP, GCO, SRE and Operations teams
- Identify feature gaps, risks and architectural blockers
- Prepare architecture documents, decision logs, best practices and migration-readiness reports
- Present progress and recommendations to technical and management stakeholders
- Own end-to-end solution design, including technical decisions, gap/risk analysis and documentation
- Lead teams and workstreams, coordinating across platform, SRE, operations and application teams
Requirements
- 5+ years of hands-on experience in observability architecture and implementation
- At least 1 year of relevant leadership experience
- Strong expertise in OpenTelemetry, including Collector configuration, receivers/processors/exporters, pipelines, routing and deployment patterns
- Proficiency in designing telemetry flows across all three signals: metrics, logs and traces
- Production-level implementation experience with Prometheus and Grafana (beyond dashboard-only usage)
- Background in cloud-native monitoring, telemetry routing and observability platforms
- Proven experience leading complex technical migrations, ideally from tools such as Splunk, Dynatrace or AppDynamics (New Relic, Datadog, etc.) to an OpenTelemetry/cloud-native architecture
- Capability to lead cross-functional technical teams across platform, SRE and operations
- Strong architecture, stakeholder-management and communication skills
- English proficiency at an Upper-Intermediate level (B2) or higher
Nice to have
- Familiarity with Kubernetes and deploying OpenTelemetry Collector and Prometheus in Kubernetes environments
- Knowledge of Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) tools
- Experience with Jaeger, Elasticsearch and OpenSearch
- SAP BTP experience
