Guardian is the safety layer for software delivery: it monitors releases in real time, detects regressions, and triggers automatic rollbacks when things go wrong.
Our goal is to make releases safe enough that teams can ship continuously without manual oversight.
On the Monitoring team, you'll build the detection and response systems at the heart of that loop.
Your work will span backend services that analyze telemetry data and frontend interfaces that give teams confidence in what's happening with their releases.
If you want to build the systems that make safe, automated software delivery possible, we'd love to talk to you! Responsibilities: •
Participate in architecture discussions and technical design reviews, contributing to sound trade-off decisions •
Participate in on-call rotations and take ownership of production reliability for your features
Collaborative and communicative: you work well across teams and functions, and you're comfortable navigating ambiguity •
Experience building or deeply using monitoring, alerting, or observability systems is a plus •
Modern software delivery was supposed to be the foundation for a thriving digital business but reality has proven otherwise.
