Overview

Do you want to work on cutting-edge cloud technologies that power the next generation of enterprise-scale platforms?

We are seeking a highly motivated Principal Cloud Engineer to join our Observability Platform team within Fidelity Architecture and Engineering. In this role, you will help design, build, and operate scalable, cloud-native observability solutions that support our most critical digital services.

You will work in a collaborative, transparent, and innovation-driven environment where engineering excellence, continuous learning, and open-source contribution are core to how we operate. This is a high-impact role where your expertise will influence platform architecture, engineering practices, and the developer experience across the organization.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the design and implementation of cloud-native observability platforms across AWS and Azure environments
  • Develop and operate highly scalable systems on AWS (EKS, core services) with strong focus on reliability, performance, and automation
  • Own the end-to-end lifecycle of observability tooling, including hosting, maintenance, scaling, and optimization
  • Drive adoption of OpenTelemetry (OTel) standards for metrics, traces, logs, and profiling
  • Build and enhance platform capabilities using Python and/or Go
  • Architect and optimize CI/CD pipelines enabling rapid, secure, and reliable deployments
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve system visibility, debugging capabilities, and performance insights
  • Define and promote best practices for cloud engineering, observability, and platform reliability
  • Mentor engineers and provide technical leadership across squads

The Experience We’re Looking For

  • 10+ years of software engineering or cloud engineering experience
  • Deep expertise in AWS cloud stack, especially:
    • EKS (Kubernetes on AWS)
    • Core services (IAM, EC2, networking, storage, etc.)
  • Strong experience working with Kubernetes and cloud-native ecosystems
  • Hands-on experience with observability tools/platforms (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenTelemetry, etc.), including hosting and operational ownership
  • Proficiency in Python and/or Go for platform and tooling development
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD practices and tools
  • Experience working with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.)
  • Familiarity with the Azure cloud stack and hybrid/multi-cloud environments
  • Working knowledge of OpenTelemetry (OTel) concepts and implementation

Bonus Skills

  • Experience building or operating large-scale internal platforms
  • Exposure to eBPF-based observability or advanced profiling solutions
  • Experience integrating observability across multi-region / multi-cloud environments
  • Experience or interest in applying AI/ML techniques to observability (e.g., anomaly detection, predictive insights, intelligent alerting, or AIOps)
  • Active participation in or contributions to open-source projects
  • Strong background in performance optimization and distributed systems

Why Join Us

  • Work on mission-critical, high-scale platforms
  • Be part of a forward-looking, cloud-first organization
  • Contribute to open technologies and modern observability practices
  • Thrive in a culture that values learning, ownership, and engineering excellence
