Description

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a founding engineer to join our team. You will be working with a small team of highly skilled engineers to build out our open-source project, Odigos. We are primarily working with C and Go for building runtime instrumentations (via eBPF Programs) and are looking for someone knowledgeable with these technologies. We are looking for someone who loves open-source and is excited about making it easier for developers to debug their applications by generating distributed tracing.

ABOUT US

Odigos leverages eBPF technology to create an open-source solution that can automatically generate distributed traces for any application without any engineering work. Developers are struggling with extracting and delivering high-quality monitoring data. Currently, building a pipeline is a manual process that takes months to implement, is an error-prone process that requires tons of code changes across multiple R&D teams, and demands collaboration.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

You’ll develop eBPF programs (instrumentations) for multiple programming languages. See an example of our open-source instrumentation: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go-instrumentation - Design and develop our Enterprise offering from the ground up. - Engage with the community, and help build a community around our open-source project.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

  • 5+ years of experience as a Software Engineer or in a similar role.
  • Proficiency in C programming, with a solid understanding of Assembly and Linux.
  • Experience with Kernel development.
  • Familiarity with AWS and cloud computing platforms.
  • Experience working with OpenTelemetry.
  • Prior exposure to eBPF technology and its applications.

Join us at Odigos and play a pivotal role in redefining application monitoring and debugging through innovative, eBPF-driven solutions.

View company profile

Odigos was founded in 2023 with a clear and ambitious mission: to make distributed tracing accessible to every developer, regardless of their expertise in observability. Recognizing that traditional monitoring tools often require complex, manual instrumentation that can take months to implement and maintain, the founders set out to build a solution that automates this entire process. By leveraging the power of eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter) and OpenTelemetry, Odigos created a platform that can instantly generate distributed traces for any application without requiring a single line of code change.

What started as an open-source project has quickly evolved into an enterprise-grade observability control plane. Odigos empowers organizations to eliminate blind spots in their distributed systems by automatically detecting applications, instrumenting them with the appropriate collectors, and scaling those collectors based on traffic. Backed by Y Combinator and other prominent investors, the company continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in cloud-native observability, helping engineering teams across the globe fix production issues faster and gain deeper insights into their complex microservices architectures.
