Job Description
The APM Root Cause Analysis teams mission is to help engineers and SREs respond rapidly and effectively to incidents affecting their production systems. During an incident one of the first questions a responder asks is What is the change that caused the incidentand thats exactly what this team aims to answer.
To answer that question the team is building several impactful systems:
- A platform to ingest interesting changes from across our customer environments (Deployments DB changes Feature Flag changes K8s changes etc.)
- A system to process past incidents in our environment and label the faulty changes that led to the incidents enabling us to build a high quality evaluation dataset for faulty change detection
- A system that uses LLM ML and statistical models to assess whether a specific change is the cause of an incident
- A product experience to expose those faulty changes in strategic locations in the product in a way that aids incident response and reduces MTTR
As a manager you will play an active role in shaping the roadmap for automated root cause analysis through collaboration with multiple stakeholder teams. You will have a deep and immediate impact in guiding the product through your design and engineering decisions.
