The #1 reason organizations invest in an observability tool is to know when something is broken so they can fix it. This has been the case for over 25 years. The Alerting Platform team focuses on providing a reliable, fast and intuitive experience for configuring, receiving, and responding to alerts.

Our users—software developers—need to troubleshoot issues that impact their own users. We build products that help suggest possible next steps to investigate, narrow down possibilities, and quickly root–cause issues. We are seeking experienced engineers who can craft intuitive, fast, and reliable user experiences empowering software engineers to diagnose and resolve incidents with confidence.

• Design, implement, and ship enhancements and new features to core product capabilities using Go, deployed on Kubernetes across cloud platforms such as AWS and GCP

• Design, implement, and deliver complex product features that address key customer pain points, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams—including product management, design, and engineering—to ensure alignment and impact throughout the development lifecycle.

• Work closely with talented engineers in a fast-paced environment that fosters accelerated learning, continuous growth, and career development

• Think beyond implementation—challenge assumptions, refine designs based on user feedback, and take ownership of delivering polished, effective user experiences.

• Lead development of user experiences that surface critical insights at a glance, streamline troubleshooting, and reduce cognitive load during high-pressure situations.

• Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and other engineers to turn complex data into actionable, easy-to-understand visualizations and workflows.

• Share accountability with other engineers across the company to build and maintain automated tests, tooling, and deployment infrastructure that improve efficiency.

• Mentor your colleagues in engineering reliable, performant, high-quality user experiences through direct mentorship, program development, and engineering infrastructure improvements.

In the first 3 months, you will build a deep understanding of Chronosphere’s alerting product and learn about the domain, our customer’s needs, the underlying technology and how we deliver changes. You will start to contribute changes to our product in a manner that enables you to learn quickly. You will build relationships by working closely with your team.

After 3 months, you will independently own features on our roadmap from scoping all the way to delivery to production. You will partner with product, design and other engineers, as need be to deliver these projects. You will start to build relationships across teams.

• The ability to own projects from inception to delivery either independently or as a technical leader of a small team, all while collaborating with product managers, UX designers, and other engineers.

• Experience in working with large scale distributed systems

• A passion for solving complex problems and ability to empathize with customers

• The curiosity and motivation to learn deep complex domain areas

• The habit to seek feedback to improve your work and the ability to ask for help when you need it

• A flexible, collaborative working style. We’re a small team working in a rapidly evolving space, and we’re looking for people that will help build a positive, supportive environment

• Fluency in a system level language such as Go, C++, Java, C#, or Rust. Knowing a specific language isn’t important; what matters is that you’ve become fluent in one by spending a lot of time on the types of projects where these languages are used
