The Job
Consistency of data submission across each platform is essential to properly understand business impacts and operational performance. To enable standardized data collection to power all our first-party data-driven use cases, we are the team building out libraries and tooling that will unify the modeling, collection, formatting and submission of events to our data pipeline.
You will join the cross organization effort for data consistency by architecting SDKs that unify multiple forms of data submission across all platforms available for our streaming products. You will enable engineering teams, operations analysts, and site reliability engineers to make sense of streams of data for millions of concurrent users so we can understand what is going wrong and mitigate those problems before they become widespread outages.
