## About the role

We are looking for a Senior Solution Engineer who lives in the terminal and is passionate about system performance. In this role, you will be a key technical expert and the bridge between the Enterprise version of our open source Observability platform and our customers' most complex Linux-based infrastructures. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Experience: 5+ years in Pre-Sales, SRE, DevOps, or Systems Engineering roles, with a proven track record of managing complex technical sales cycles
- Linux Mastery: You are an expert in the terminal. You know how to troubleshoot CPU spikes, memory leaks, and disk I/O bottlenecks using standard Linux tools (top, strace, tcpdump, vmstat) and can teach others how to do the same
- Observability DNA: Deep understanding of the "Three Pillars" (Logs, Metrics, Traces) and the business value of reducing MTTR (Mean Time To Resolve)
- Problem Solving: You approach troubleshooting through the lens of observability. You can diagnose why metrics are missing, identify high-cardinality churn, optimize slow queries, or determine why alerts are failing to trigger
- Technical Skills
