Job Description & How to Apply Below
We're hiring a senior Splunk Consultant to design, implement, and optimise observability solutions for enterprise clients. This is a client-facing consulting role where you'll work across complex environments, helping organisations gain deeper visibility into their systems, improve reliability, and accelerate incident response through the Splunk Observability Cloud suite.
You’ll collaborate with client engineering, SRE, and platform teams to shape observability strategies, deliver hands-on implementations, and guide clients on best practices in telemetry, monitoring, and performance analytics.
Key Responsibilities:- Lead the design and delivery of observability solutions using Splunk Observability Cloud (Infrastructure Monitoring, APM, RUM, Log Observer, and On-Call)
- Partner with clients to assess existing observability maturity, define requirements, and recommend improvements
- Implement and integrate Splunk observability tooling with cloud-native and hybrid environments (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Work closely with SRE, Dev Ops, and Platform Engineering teams to define SLIs/SLOs and enable proactive detection and incident response
- Deliver workshops, documentation, and enablement sessions to upskill client teams and drive adoption
- Collaborate with internal teams to develop and refine observability accelerators, templates, and best practices
- Act as a trusted advisor, providing technical leadership and thought partnership throughout project life cycles
- Strong hands‑on experience with Splunk Observability Cloud and the broader Splunk ecosystem (ITSI, ES, SOAR)
- Solid understanding of observability pillars: logs, metrics, traces, and digital experience monitoring
- Deep knowledge of cloud-native and containerised architectures (Kubernetes, microservices, serverless)
- Familiarity with telemetry standards such as Open Telemetry
- Experience with other tooling highly desirable, such as App Dynamics, Thousand Eyes, Elastic, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or Dynatrace
- Experience integrating observability into CI/CD pipelines and reliability workflows
- Excellent client‑facing and communication skills able to translate technical insights into business value
- Splunk Certifications (e.g. Splunk O11y Certified Admin, Consultant, Architect or Observability Cloud Practitioner) are highly desirable; a willingness to certify if not already qualified is expected
- Previous consulting or professional services experience preferred
Offer:
- Remote‑first with occasional client travel
- Exposure to enterprise‑scale observability and reliability transformation projects
- Funded Splunk certifications and ongoing training support
- Comprehensive benefits including healthcare, retirement plans, and unlimited PTO
