Senior Observability Platform Engineer

At Avaron, you get the security of permanent employment combined with the variety of working at different customers. We place specialists across everything from tech, IT and industry to project management and business support – and whatever the assignment, you have a consultant manager who is there for you and your development.

You will join a platform team that is building a new observability platform for a modern product environment. The mission is both technical and strategic: you help design, build, and run the observability stack while also shaping standards, paved paths, and best practices for how teams work with telemetry.

This role sits close to real users. You work across existing development environments and a newer internal developer platform, making sure observability is usable, scalable, and operationally strong from the start. You will have a hands-on role in an area that is evolving quickly, where feedback loops are short and your decisions will influence how engineering teams monitor and understand their systems. It is a great opportunity if you enjoy combining platform engineering, production operations, and developer advocacy in one role.
