Job Description

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled and strategic Principal Observability & Event Management Engineer to champion enterprise-wide initiatives that improve monitoring effectiveness, reduce alert noise, and accelerate incident response.

In this dual-impact role, you will act as both a strategic leader and a hands-on technical expert. You will define the enterprise standards for multi-domain monitoring (infrastructure, cloud, application, network, batch, and mainframe) while actively designing and configuring our Event Management platforms—specifically Oracle Unified Assurance (Assure1) and IBM Netcool . The ideal candidate will leverage data insights, machine learning, and automation to transform massive event storms into high-fidelity, actionable signals.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Leadership & Governance

•Drive Enterprise Initiatives: Own and lead cross-functional, enterprise-wide initiatives focused on improving monitoring effectiveness, optimizing alert quality, and reducing incident volumes.

•Define Standards: Establish corporate standards, approaches, and best practices for alert optimization across infrastructure, application, batch, network, and mainframe environments.

•Culture & Mentorship: Mentor, guide, and evangelize a strong observability and optimization mindset across engineering and operations teams.

•Continuous Improvement: Identify systemic gaps in monitoring design and lead long-term, architectural improvements to eliminate redundant or low-value alerts.

Platform Engineering & Administration

•Infrastructure Design: Implement, maintain, and scale Oracle Assure1 / Unified Assurance servers and architectures for high-availability (HA) enterprise environments.

•Event Correlation & Enrichment: Develop advanced Object-Server configurations, triggers, and correlation rules to distinguish isolated anomalies from critical root causes.

•Multi-Vendor Integration: Integrate multi-vendor telemetry, logs, faults, and data from disparate monitoring domains into a single, unified Event Management UI.

•Operations & Backend Support: Manage backend databases (e.g., MySQL, OpenSearch), maintain platform availability, and troubleshoot complex backend issues.

Automation, AIOps & Incident Response

•Incident Automation: Write robust automation scripts and workflows to bridge monitoring tools with ITSM platforms (such as ServiceNow ) to accelerate incident response times.

•AIOps & Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Apply Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, topological discovery, and data-driven approaches to enhance event correlation, suppress noise, and automate self-healing or ticket generation.

Basic Requirements

Required Qualifications & Skills

Experience & Education

•Total Experience: 5 years of dedicated experience in enterprise Event Management, Fault Management, Service Level Management, or production environments.

•Initiative Leadership: 3 years of proven experience leading large-scale, cross-functional improvements in monitoring effectiveness, alert optimization, or incident reduction.

Technical Expertise

•Platform Expertise: Hands-on, deep technical experience with Oracle Unified Assurance / Assure1 and/or IBM Netcool suites (OMNIbus, Netcool Impact, ITM).

•OS & Scripting: Strong proficiency in Linux Administration (RHEL) and expert-level scripting skills (Python, Bash, Perl, or Shell) for building event parsers and API integrations.

•Databases & APIs: Solid understanding of backend database management, SQL queries, REST APIs, and tool customization using rule files and OpenSearch.

•Domain Knowledge: Strong exposure to multi-domain infrastructure (Cloud, Network, Telecommunications, Mainframe) paired with a solid understanding of ITIL Event Management principles.
