Project description

The project focuses on enhancing enterprise observability, operational monitoring, and reporting capabilities through Splunk.
The selected candidate will support Splunk dashboard development, monitoring and alerting improvements, data onboarding initiatives, log analysis, and reliability engineering efforts across application and infrastructure environments.
The role also includes working with network telemetry and network operational data to improve visibility, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting across enterprise network environments.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain Splunk dashboards, reports, and alerts for operational, security, and business monitoring.
• Develop and optimize SPL queries for data analysis, reporting, and visualization.
• Create and maintain field extractions, lookups, and data parsing configurations.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to gather reporting requirements and deliver effective Splunk solutions.
• Support onboarding of new data sources, monitoring initiatives, alerting configurations, and root cause analysis activities.
• Onboard, normalize, and analyze network telemetry and network device data from routers, switches, firewalls, load balancers, and other infrastructure components.
• Develop dashboards and reporting solutions focused on network health, capacity, performance, traffic analysis, and operational metrics.
• Partner with network engineering and operations teams to support troubleshooting, performance optimization, and observability initiatives.
• Perform network data analysis and correlation across logs, metrics, and events to identify trends, anomalies, and root causes.
