Conduct code reviews and offer constructive feedback to improve team performance. Lead by example, demonstrating engineering best practices and setting high standards for quality. Identify potential risks that could hinder project success and take initiative-taking measures to mitigate them. Adjust project plans in response to changing priorities or feedback from stakeholders to ensure alignment. Proven experience as a technical lead or principal engineer on an agent, daemon, or systems-level software project at scale managing distributed deployments, versioning, and backward compatibility. Deep knowledge of observability data collection: metrics, logs, traces, and the protocols that carry them (OTLP, Prometheus Remote Write, syslog, etc.). Experience designing management and control planes for distributed software particularly protocol-driven approaches like OpAMP. Track record of leading large,



multi-team technical initiatives from ambiguous design space to shipped software. Proven ability to seamlessly transition between different projects and codebases, and work with different teams based on dynamic business priorities. Comfortable with the full arc of a technical decision: writing the design doc, socializing it across stakeholders, building consensus, and holding the line on what matters. Great written communication you produce design docs and ADRs that others trust and reference long after the decision is made Experience with OpenTelemetry collector configuration, OTLP transport, or upstream contribution. Experience with cross platform testing and developer productivity spanning all of Linux, Windows, MacOS, containers, and Kubernetes. Knowledge about pipeline execution models and processing languages (Streamlang, Logstash, Fluent, etc.). Experience with CloudFormation, Terraform, or other infrastructure-as-code tooling in the context of agent deployment. Contributions to open source projects in the observability or agent ecosystem.
