Head of Observability

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Head of Observability based in United Kingdom.

This is a senior technical leadership role responsible for defining and scaling the entire observability strategy across a high-scale, developer-facing platform. You will own both the internal observability systems used for reliability, incident response, and performance engineering, as well as the customer-facing observability product that enables developers to deeply understand and debug their applications. The role spans architecture, product thinking, and team leadership, requiring you to unify logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting into a cohesive, scalable ecosystem. You will have significant autonomy to shape build-versus-buy decisions and set long-term technical direction. Working in a fast-moving, remote-first environment, you will collaborate across engineering, product, and infrastructure teams to ensure observability is embedded at the core of system design. This is a high-impact position for someone who has built observability platforms at scale and is excited to do it again with full ownership and mandate.
