• Participate in on-call rotations and take ownership of production reliability for your features
• Expand Vega beyond Observability into Feature Management, including the flag cleanup agent as a cross-product capability
• Design and operate safe, sandboxed AI agent execution infrastructure—isolation, resource limits, permissions, and auditability
• Support enterprise capabilities for the Observability platform: building data import and export pipelines to connect O11y to other platforms and enabling new customer workflows
• Build a platform that other teams can contribute to—defining contribution patterns, shared services, and APIs for agent capabilities
• Power dashboard creation via natural language prompts, extending existing Vega infrastructure with new tools, context, and evaluation
• Build the metering and usage pipelines that enable a usage-based monetization model for Vega
• Contribute to architecture decisions, code reviews, and engineering standards across the Observability and Vega teams

Skills
