THE ROLE

Baseten is seeking talented and experienced Software Engineers to join our Observability team within the Infrastructure organization. As an early member of the Observability Team, you will be pivotal in building and shaping the observability experience for our internal and external customers. By joining this team, you’ll have a direct impact on the reliability and operational excellence of Baseten's product systems.

As Baseten scales its infrastructure across different cloud providers and diverse hardware, the volume and complexity of operational data is growing by orders of magnitude. This team is responsible for building high-throughput ingest pipelines, cost-efficient storage, and agentic diagnostic tools to ensure that we can detect, diagnose, and resolve issues in minutes rather than hours, even as the systems they operate become more complex.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Design and build scalable telemetry ingest and storage pipelines for metrics, logs, and traces across Baseten’s multi-cloud infrastructure
• Own and evolve core observability platforms, driving migrations and architectural improvements that improve reliability, reduce cost, and scale with organizational growth
• Build instrumentation libraries, SDKs, and integrations that make it easy for engineering teams to emit high-quality telemetry from their services
• Drive alerting and SLO infrastructure that enables teams to define, monitor, and respond to reliability targets with minimal noise
• Partner with Inference, Product, and Infrastructure teams to ensure observability solutions meet the unique needs of each organization

REQUIREMENTS

• Have deep experience with at least one observability signal area (metrics, logging, tracing, or error analytics) and familiarity with the others
