Cisco ThousandEyes is a Digital Assurance platform that empowers organizations to deliver flawless digital experiences across every network – even the ones they don’t own. Powered by AI and an unmatched set of cloud, internet and enterprise network telemetry data, ThousandEyes enables IT teams to proactively detect, diagnose, and remediate issues – before they impact end- user experiences. ThousandEyes is deeply integrated across the entire Cisco technology portfolio and beyond, helping customers deploy at scale while also delivering AI-powered assurance insights within Cisco’s leading Networking, Security, Collaboration, and Observability portfolios. About The Role The Site Reliability Engineering team focused on Observability is responsible for providing the tools, services, and infrastructure to monitor and observe the ThousandEyes platform. Leveraging cloud native tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Kibana, and even ThousandEyes itself, we enable our developers to instrument, analyze, and monitor their applications. The Site Reliability Engineer in this role will work together with the team to own our observability stack while working with developers to continuously improve our view of the platform. What Youll Do As we expand our platform to a multi-region scale, it is essential to design and implement strategies that enhance visibility. This involves designing, deploying, and maintaining cloud-native monitoring services that are both elastic and resilient to failure. It is also crucial to establish standards and best practices for the instrumentation of container-based services and cloud-managed services. The maintenance of our alerting pipeline is key to ensuring that notifications are timely, accurate, and directed to the appropriate channels. Automation is a priority, as it allows our monitoring platforms to scale effortlessly, promoting a self-service approach. Additionally, active participation and contribution to the improvement of our 24x7 incident response and on-call rotation are vital to the robustness of our operational response. Qualifications • Ability to write high quality code, preferably in Python or Go. • Passion for SRE / DevOps roles and Operational Excellence. • Familiarity with the most common Observability concepts: metrics, logs and traces. • Understanding of monitoring and alerting systems. Experience with the Grafana Observability Stack is a plus. • Good understanding of AWS services. • Infrastructure as Code skills, ideally with Terraform and Kubernetes.
