Observability Engineer

We are a team of veteran entrepreneurs and software engineers. We have been working together in the field of data management for 20+ years. During that period, we have gained a track record of building successful enterprises that have created outstanding value for team members, investors, and customers. Our team has extensive experience developing highly scalable, high performance, distributed, elastic, robust, infrastructure software solutions.

The role

Regatta develops a distributed database from scratch. We are looking for an Observability Engineer to join our company and play a leading role in the design and implementation of advanced observability functionality that are core to the reliability and performance of our distributed database platform. In this role, you'll play a critical part in shaping how we monitor, trace, and understand system behavior in complex, large-scale deployments. From instrumenting key components within the database engine to designing external tools and dashboards, you'll help ensure that Regatta operates with maximum visibility, performance, and resilience. You'll work closely with the product and infrastructure teams, and your work will directly influence how we detect anomalies, prevent outages, and maintain a seamless experience for our users.

This is a hands-on role combining architecture and implementation responsibilities. It's an ideal opportunity for someone with deep technical expertise and a strong sense of ownership. Everybody at Regatta - regardless of work experience - has full ownership of the product's architecture and design, software development, and quality assurance. In addition to hands-on software engineering work, we highly encourage leadership, communication, teamwork, and cooperation.
