Dash0 is an OpenTelemetry-native observability platform that provides infrastructure monitoring, log management, application performance monitoring, distributed tracing, Kubernetes and website monitoring, dashboards, alerting, and integrations. It’s a developer- and SRE-focused SaaS product that centralizes logs, metrics, and traces with fast search and filtering, pre-built integrations, PromQL support, and configuration-as-code. Dash0 emphasizes vendor neutrality, transparent usage-based pricing, AI-assisted workflows to reduce repetitive tasks, and a lightweight, keyboard-driven UX for fast troubleshooting and cost control.

📋 Description

• Turn usage into revenue. We charge based on data, which means we need rock-solid metering. You’ll build the systems that count every event, sync it with payment providers, and ensure invoices are accurate down to the cent. • Drive reliability and risk management. You will own the reliability of the platform, proactively identifying risks before they become incidents. You’ll foster a security-first culture and ensure our monitoring efforts are world-class. • Provide mentorship and improve the process. You will define the standards for code quality, testing, and observability. You act as a force multiplier—mentoring others, reviewing PRDs to ensure technical feasibility, and simplifying complex technical designs to align with product goals. • Within 1 week, you'll have shipped your first piece of production ready code. • Within 3 months, you’ll extend our billing system and provide more transparency into usage and help our customers to maintain full control over observability cost. This includes improving cost visibility through usage dashboards and forecasting, and strengthening the notification pipeline to ensure timely alerts reach the right stakeholders. • Within 6 months, you’ll establish new architectural patterns in Go in our billing solution, raising the bar for reliability and maintainability. You'll deepen integrations with marketplace and CRM tools, and actively mentor engineers across the organization on billing architecture and third-party integrations. • Within 12 months, you'll be a technical authority for our revenue engineering backend, having guided the team through major scaling challenges across billing, metering, and marketplace integrations. You'll shape the product roadmap by bridging technical constraints with customer needs - translating usage patterns and cost control requirements into reliable, scalable billing infrastructure.

🎯 Requirements

• (The Big One) Has experience with billing systems or usage-based pricing models (Stripe API experience is a huge plus). • Has deep architectural expertise in building and scaling distributed backend systems using Go. Java knowledge is a nice extra! • Expertly leverages AI and agentic coding tools to accelerate development, applying deep technical judgment to verify, refine, and own the final output. • Understands that data accuracy is everything when money is involved. You test thoroughly because you know a bug here affects the bottom line. • Has a "product mindset" for internal tools. You believe the tools our employees use should be just as polished as the ones our customers use. • Is a natural mentor and cultural leader. You have a track record of improving team processes, fostering psychological safety, and elevating the quality of work around you. • Lives and breathes Observability. As an expert in OpenTelemetry and monitoring, you contribute to improving observability not just in our product, but within our own engineering practices.
