## Job description

Coralogix is a modern, full-stack observability platform transforming how businesses process and understand their data. Our unique architecture powers in-stream analytics without reliance on expensive indexing or hot storage. We specialize in comprehensive monitoring of logs, metrics, trace and security events with features such as APM, RUM, SIEM, Kubernetes monitoring and more, all enhancing operational efficiency and reducing observability spend by up to 70%.

We are looking for a Backend Engineer to join a growing group! Our Alerting backend powers real-time, streaming-based detection at massive scale, processing millions of events per second with millisecond latency to catch issues as they happen. Built with a distributed, event-driven architecture, it supports complex pattern evaluation, dynamic enrichment, and fault-tolerant delivery for mission-critical observability

### Our Stack

### What You'll Do

- Lead the design, development, and evolution of scalable, high-impact systems.

- Solve complex technical challenges at scale using sound engineering principles and modern stream processing technologies.

- Collaborate closely with engineers and product managers to continuously improve the product.

- Drive both technical excellence and meaningful user outcomes.

### Requirements

- 5+ years of software development experience.

- 3+ years of development experience with JVM stack - Java / Kotlin / Scala - Advantage.

- 3+ years of experience developing and operating distributed systems in production.

- Hands-on experience with observability platforms (Coralogix, Grafana, etc.)

- Proven experience in building systems that are highly available and reliable through strong architectural practices, monitoring, and proactive incident management.

- Hands-on experience with Data Streaming technologies, including Apache Kafka, Spark Streaming, KafkaStreams, or Apache Flink.

- Proficiency in data modeling and designing systems to handle large-scale, distributed datasets efficiently.

- Strong knowledge of distributed computing paradigms and principles, such as consistency, partitioning, and resilience.

- B.Sc. in Computer Science or an equivalent field.

### Advantage

- Production experience in a SaaS environment - Metrics, Logging, Troubleshooting production systems

### Cultural Fit

We’re seeking candidates who are hungry, humble, and smart. Coralogix fosters a culture of innovation and continuous learning, where team members are encouraged to challenge the status quo and contribute to our shared mission. If you thrive in dynamic environments and are eager to shape the future of observability solutions, we’d love to hear from you.

Coralogix is an equal opportunity employer and encourages applicants from all backgrounds to apply.

**Live in Coralogix’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
