Full Stack Engineer, Observability

About The Job

LaunchDarkly is looking for a Full Stack Engineer to help close critical enterprise capability gaps in our Observability product. This role focuses on two high-impact areas: Infrastructure-as-Code support for Observability (dashboards, alerts, configuration) and deeper integration with the tools enterprises already use—from event ingestion and data import/export to alert routing into systems like Jira and Linear.

Responsibilities

• Design and build full-stack features that address enterprise adoption requirements across Observability
• Own integrations and infrastructure capabilities end-to-end—from API design and backend services to UI surfaces
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, solutions engineers, and customers to understand enterprise requirements and deliver against them
• Participate in architecture and design discussions, making well-reasoned trade-offs for scalability, reliability, and maintainability
• Write well-tested, observable code and uphold high engineering standards across the team
• Engage with internal stakeholders and occasionally enterprise customers to validate solutions and gather feedback
• Participate in on-call rotations and maintain production reliability for your features

About You

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience shipping production-quality full-stack features
• Proficiency across the stack—comfortable in TypeScript/React on the frontend and Go (or similar) on the backend
• Experience building integrations, data pipelines, or APIs that connect systems at scale
• Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code tooling (Terraform, Pulumi, etc.) or experience building IaC-compatible APIs
• Understanding of enterprise software requirements: compliance, auditability, RBAC, and GitOps workflows
• Strong communication skills—you can work across functions and are comfortable interacting with technical customers or solutions engineers
• Experience with observability tools (Datadog, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, etc.) is a plus
• Familiarity with LaunchDarkly's feature flagging or Observability product is a plus
