We push the boundaries of what’s possible to solve problems and break traditional tradeoffs. Join Coupang now to create an epic experience in this always-on, high-tech, and hyper-connected world.   Role Overview We are seeking a Sr. Staff Observability Engineer to lead the design and evolution of our observability platform for a GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) infrastructure. This role will own the end-to-end telemetry strategy—from high-throughput metric ingestion to log pipelines and real-time visualization—powering deep insights into GPU clusters, datacenter systems, and distributed workloads. You will architect and operate planet-scale telemetry pipelines leveraging Grafana Alloy, Mimir, Loki, and Vector, ensuring high-fidelity observability across GPU workloads, Kubernetes clusters, and datacenter infrastructure.   ---------------------------------------- Key Responsibilities   <Architectural Leadership & Strategy> * End-to-End Observability Platform Ownership: Design and scale telemetry pipelines using: * Grafana Alloy for metrics collection (Prometheus-compatible pipelines) * Datadog Vector for high-throughput log ingestion and transformation * Grafana Mimir for scalable time-series storage * Grafana Loki for log aggregation and querying * Strategic Roadmap: Define the multi-year vision for GPU infrastructure observability, transitioning from reactive monitoring to SLO-driven, predictive, and automated observability. * High-Cardinality Telemetry Design: Optimize pipelines for GPU workloads characterized by: * High-cardinality labels (GPU IDs, tenants, workloads) * Burst-heavy workloads (ML training, inference spikes) * Multi-tenant isolation requirements <Telemetry Pipeline Engineering> * Architect low-latency, high-throughput pipelines capable of ingesting: * GPU metrics (utilization, memory, thermals, MIG partitions) * Kubernetes and container telemetry * Distributed system logs and traces * Build and optimize metric pipelines (Alloy → Mimir) ensuring: * Efficient remote_write tuning * Cost-effective retention strategies * Horizontal scalability and compaction tuning * Design log pipelines (Vector → Loki) with: * Structured logging and enrichment * Intelligent filtering/sampling * Stream partitioning for high-ingest environments <GPU & Infrastructure Observability> * Establish deep observability into: * GPU hardware (NVIDIA DCGM, MIG, NVLink, PCIe) * Kubernetes GPU operators and scheduling behavior * Network fabric (RDMA, InfiniBand, TCP performance) * Define GPU-specific SLIs/SLOs such as: * GPU utilization efficiency * Job scheduling latency * Cluster fragmentation * Thermal and power anomalies <Visualization & User Experience> * Build rich Grafana dashboards for: * Real-time GPU fleet health * Tenant-level usage and billing insights * Capacity planning and forecasting * Standardize dashboard frameworks and reusable panels across teams * Enable self-service observability for platform and ML engineering teams <SRE, Automation & Reliability> * Drive adoption of SRE principles: * SLIs, SLOs, error budgets tailored to GPU workloads * Integrate observability into CI/CD and IaC pipelines (Terraform/Kubernetes): * Automated canary analysis * Observability-driven rollbacks * Build automation (Go/Python) for: * Pipeline health monitoring * Dynamic routing and scaling of telemetry workloads <Incident Forensics & Debugging> * Develop tooling and practices for cross-layer correlation: * GPU → Node → Kubernetes → Application → Network * Lead deep RCA efforts for: * GPU contention issues * Performance degradation in ML workloads * Telemetry pipeline backpressure/failures * Enable “needle-in-a-haystack” debugging using unified logs + metrics <Technical Leadership & Collaboration> * Mentor engineers and lead design reviews for observability systems * Act as a force multiplier across SRE, Infra, and ML platform teams * Promote Observability-by-Design in all new GPU cluster deployments <Open Source & Ecosystem Strategy> * Drive adoption and contribution to: * Grafana stack (Alloy, Mimir, Loki, Tempo) * OpenTelemetry ecosystem * Define build vs. buy decisions (Datadog vs OSS vs hybrid approaches) * Optimize interoperability between Vector and OTEL pipelines <Security & Compliance> * Architect secure telemetry pipelines with: * Encryption in transit and at rest * Multi-tenant isolation and RBAC * Data residency compliance * Implement Zero Trust observability patterns   ---------------------------------------- Qualifications & Requirements * BS/MS in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience * Extensive experience in Observability, SRE, or Distributed Infrastructure * Proven track record building large-scale telemetry pipelines (metrics/logs) * Observability Stack: * Grafana Alloy / Prometheus ecosystem * Grafana Mimir (or Cortex/Thanos) * Grafana Loki * Datadog Vector (or similar log pipelines) *  Programming: * Strong in Go or Python *  Data Systems: * TSDBs and log
