**See yourself at Twilio**
Join the team as our next Software Engineer on Twilio’s platform engineering observability team.
**About the job**
This position is needed to help our platform engineering observability team. Twilio is undergoing a large-scale observability transformation—and you can help shape the foundation. Observability is a strategic pillar and a key enabler for faster incident response, deeper customer-centric insights, and more cost-effective platform operations.
As a Software Engineer on the Platform Observability team, you’ll play a critical role in re-architecting how telemetry flows and is utilized through Twilio—making it structured, accessible, affordable, and actionable. Over the next 3 years, Twilio is rebuilding nearly every component of our observability platform, from data collection to real-time analytics. You will drive core initiatives that shift Twilio from fragmented tooling and wasteful data sprawl to a unified, OpenTelemetry-first observability stack built for scale.
You’ll lead technically and strategically—designing platform components, influencing org-wide architectural decisions, mentoring engineers, and engaging directly with teams across Platform Engineering and R&D
**Responsibilities**
In this role, you’ll:
- Lead the end-to-end architecture and delivery of key observability platform components, with a focus on reliability, scalability, and usability. - Drive consistency and quality across all observability signals—logs, metrics, traces, and continuous profiling—building intuitive workflows for engineers. - Serve as a technical advisor and mentor across the platform org, guiding design decisions and aligning cross-team efforts with long-term architectural goals. - Go deep in one or more problem areas (e.g., high-cardinality telemetry, distributed tracing correlation, compute cost insights), while ensuring the platform scales horizontally. - Collaborate with product teams, SREs, and developer experience groups to deeply understand telemetry needs and integrate observability into core engineering workflows. - Design and build developer-friendly tooling and APIs to support incident response, performance analysis, and platform debugging at scale. - Leverage (and optionally contribute to) open-source standards like OpenTelemetry to ensure interoperability and extensibility. - Champion a pragmatic approach to observability—balancing performance, cost, and user value across diverse engineering teams.

If your career is just starting or hasn't followed a traditional path, don't let that stop you from considering Twilio. We are always looking for people who will bring something new to the table!
***Required:**
- Proven expertise in building and scaling observability systems (e.g., logging platforms, metrics pipelines, tracing infrastructure, or profiling tools). - Lead technical execution for major components of Twilio’s observability overhaul, including our shift to centralized S3-based data lakes, OpenTelemetry instrumentation, and ClickHouse-backed query engines. - Proficiency in at least one modern programming language (e.g., Go, Python, Java). - Familiarity with high-cardinality data challenges and telemetry correlation techniques. - Experience designing high-scale telemetry systems (e.g., Prometheus, ClickHouse, OpenTelemetry, Kafka, or equivalent). - Solid understanding of distributed systems and the challenges of observability in complex, microservice-based environments. - Experience with AWS, Kubernetes, and infrastructure-as-code tools. - Provide architectural guidance and thought leadership across teams, helping to establish clear telemetry standards, efficient usage patterns, and scalable platform abstractions. - Ability to make forward-looking technical decisions and lead others through ambiguity and chan
**Desired:**
- Familiarity with ClickHouse, Grafana Mimir, Athena, or equivalent systems for log and metrics querying. - Contributions to open-source observability tools or communities. - Experience building cost visibility or FinOps tooling for cloud compute and telemetry pipelines.
