The logging team is responsible for building and maintaining all our capabilities for logging in the Chronosphere product and driving the revenue for our business line. We help our customers understand and derive value from their logging telemetry data.

  • Manage projects to that roadmap, establish delivery sequence, and drive day-to-day execution focused on priorities.

  • Develop effective relationships with stakeholders such as field teams and external partners to enable the team’s progress.

  • Balance work across our individual contributors and help them do their best work by creating a healthy team environment.

  • Support and develop a team of engineers through all stages of their career via feedback, coaching, and performance management.

  • Eliminate barriers to execution and help drive efficiency and high velocity for the team.

  • Collaborate with other engineering and product leaders on wider organizational initiatives.

  • Collaborate and partner with sister teams to deliver on shared goals for the company.

What you will achieve

In the first 3 months, you will build a deep understanding of Chronosphere’s platform and will have time to learn about logging, our customer’s needs, the underlying technology and how we deliver changes. You will establish relationships with our key stakeholders. You will manage your direct reports, owning the planning and day-to-day execution for the team with the support of your manager as need be.

After 3 months, you will manage all day-to-day activities of the team in close partnership with key stakeholders and your manager. You will learn about and contribute to driving process changes to ensure our organization scales effectively.
