About SigNoz
SigNoz is an open-source observability platform that helps modern engineering teams monitor, debug, and optimize their applications with deep visibility into metrics, traces, and logs, all in one place. We're built natively on OpenTelemetry and offer both self-hosted and cloud options, so teams can run observability the way they want, without vendor lock-in.
We are growing fast and building core developer infra products. And we are not fooling around:
- 31,000+ GitHub stars
- 900+ customers
- 8,000+ members in our Slack community
Role: Sr Backend Engineer - AI
We're looking for a Sr Backend Engineer for Nerve, our AI pod. Nerve builds the AI layer of SigNoz: Noz (our AI teammate), the MCP server, AI Agents, and LLM observability. We're building toward agent-native observability, where the engineer and their agent are both first-class users.
What you'll work on
- Noz, our AI teammate: agent orchestration, tool calling, streaming over SSE, and session state, the hard parts of agent backends
- SigNoz MCP server: the surface through which any LLM agent works with SigNoz,
querying logs, metrics, and traces, and creating alerts, dashboards
- LLM/GenAI observability: monitoring AI apps with OpenTelemetry, ours included
What will make you successful
- 5-8 years building backend systems in production at product companies with solid engineering culture. You'll work across both Go and Python.
- Strong with Go (concurrency, channels, performance) and with async Python (FastAPI, Pydantic, asyncio), and comfortable designing APIs and data models.
- Curious about building with LLMs and agents. You don't need AI experience, strong backend engineers pick this up fast, and we'll ramp you up. What matters is the drive to make a non-deterministic system behave like a dependable one.
- High ownership in a fast-moving, remote-first team: you drive initiatives from problem discovery → design → implementation → rollout, write clear docs, and explain trade-offs.
