About this role
We are a global team of innovators and pioneers dedicated to shaping the future of observability. At New Relic, we build an intelligent platform that empowers companies to thrive in an AI-first world by giving them unparalleled insight into their complex systems. As we continue to expand our global footprint, we're looking for passionate people to join our mission. If you're ready to help the world's best companies optimize their digital applications, we invite you to explore a career with us!
Your opportunity
At New Relic, we provide our customers real-time insights so they can innovate faster. Our software delivers insightful observability tools across different technologies and distributed systems, enabling software engineering teams to quickly identify, understand, and tackle issues, analyze performance, and get the most out of their software and infrastructure. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of observability while pioneering the next generation of engineering: we are actively revolutionizing how we build software by embedding modern, agent-powered workflows directly into our daily development lifecycle. You’ll tackle complex distributed systems problems while helping drive internal innovation on the frontlines of AI-assisted engineering.
About the team
This position is for the Service Architecture Intelligence team. You will be building, improving, and maintaining a distributed service architecture capable of ingesting large volumes of data, analyzing spans and traces, and publishing them downstream so the UI can offer an exceptional experience to our customers.
We work with data at scale, and our pipeline is built with a diverse tech stack (Java, Kafka, Redis, public cloud services, and more). You will work alongside a team of talented engineers solving complex distributed systems challenges. If you're passionate about performance and scale, and want to contribute to one of the largest and fastest-growing observability platforms while co-creating the future of AI-driven development workflows, we want to hear from you.
We are remote-first, with team members distributed across several locations, but we have a strong presence in Barcelona and we often take advantage of our lovely offices.
What you'll do
• Build, maintain, and scale backend services and their support tools using modern engineering practices.
• Pioneer, test, and integrate advanced AI agents and AI-powered workflows into everyday engineering operations; from code generation and automated testing to architecture planning, code reviews, and production troubleshooting.
• Work closely with product and sibling teams to understand product specifications and influence the roadmap for the Service Architecture Intelligence products at New Relic.
• Create automation and tooling to make our systems more scalable, easier to deploy.
• Work in an agile environment with a DevOps approach, where teams build and maintain their own software, including parti
