• Work with Datadog Service Catalog, APM tagging conventions, and monitor configuration.

• Work with ServiceNow CMDB data, including cmdb_ci_service and relationship tables.

• Evaluate data quality, matching heuristics, and the reliability and limitations of data across systems.

• Drive the adoption of shared tooling or standards across engineering teams through incentive design and low-friction onboarding.

• Support phased, metrics-driven platform or framework rollouts across multiple independent teams.

• Build and maintain production-grade Python automation for data matching and ETL processes.

• Develop automation involving fuzzy matching, scoring, and join logic across heterogeneous data sources.

• Strong experience with Datadog and ServiceNow.

• Hands-on experience with Datadog Service Catalog, APM tagging conventions, and monitor configuration.

• Experience with ServiceNow CMDB, including cmdb_ci_service and relationship tables, with the ability to reason about data quality, matching heuristics, and where each system's data can and cannot be trusted.

• Strong experience rolling out platform or framework adoption, including helping engineering teams adopt shared tooling or standards through incentive design and low-friction onboarding.

• Experience running phased, metrics-driven rollouts across multiple independent teams.

• Strong experience in Python and automation.

• Ability to build and maintain production-grade data-matching and ETL pipelines involving fuzzy matching, scoring, and join logic across heterogeneous sources.

Preferred Qualifications
