Responsibilities

Instana Sensors team is seeking to hire a MediorJava Software Engineer to join our team for developing infrastructure monitoring solutions.

At Instana, we process and analyze millions of spans, traces, metrics, and events per second to provide actionable APM intelligence to our rapidly expanding customer base. This constant stream of telemetry creates a number of challenges that must be met with operational agility, as well as strong architecture, design, and development.

As a member of our team, you’ll be mostly focused on the Instana Agent component which is responsible for automatic and zero-configuration service discovery, and data retrieval in order to monitor various technologies. The Instana Agent needs to work under various conditions and have a really low impact on the customer environment so your abilities to predict hot spots, writing optimized and concurrent code, and paying attention to details will be highly valuable. Working with Instana Agent will include a significant amount of researching and experimenting. Moreover, you will come across a wide range of technologies, like infrastructure platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes ...), as well as our rich Web UI. You should be open to learning new technologies and willing to get your hands dirty across the entire software stack.
