The posting

About the role

As a Senior Observability Engineer at Saxo, you will join a specialised team responsible for the bank's observability platforms. We build and continuously improve solutions that provide visibility into the performance, stability, and health of critical business systems across our hybrid infrastructure.

You will help shape the future of Saxo's observability landscape by designing and operating solutions for metrics, logs, traces, and events across cloud and on-premises environments. Your work will enable engineering teams to better understand, monitor, and improve the systems that power Saxo.

Team perspective

"We are the eyes and ears of Saxo Bank's platform health. Our work is critical to maintaining stable and continuous operations across the organisation.

Our team is based in Denmark and India and consists of five specialists. While supporting our current platforms, we are also executing our roadmap for the next generation of observability capabilities."

Responsibilities

  • Own and support the day-to-day operation of Saxo's observability platform.
  • Partner closely with engineering teams to deliver meaningful monitoring and visibility across business-critical systems.
  • Drive priorities, technical direction, and platform improvements within the team.
  • Act as the observability platform architect, ensuring scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
  • Play a key role in delivering the next generation of Saxo's observability platform in collaboration with Enterprise Architecture, platform teams, and business stakeholders.

What success looks like

  • Build expertise across our observability ecosystem, including Elastic, Grafana, Kibana, Kubernetes, SCOM, and Windows Server.
  • Improve visibility, reliability, and operational efficiency by reducing alert noise, enhancing dashboards, and driving actionable insights.
  • Define and promote standards for logging, metrics, dashboards, and alerting.
  • Collaborate with engineering, platform, and security teams to ensure observability is embedded across solutions.
  • Lead incident investigations, contribute to post-mortems, and turn lessons learned into platform improvements.
  • Optimise platform performance, scalability, and cost.
  • Share knowledge through documentation, best practices, and technical guidance across the organisation.

  • Distributed systems and cloud-native architectures.
  • Operating and optimising Elastic Stack in production environments.
  • Grafana and Kibana for dashboarding, visualisation, and alerting.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
