Own the service-level health, scalability, and observability of analytics microservices
Guide implementation of dashboards, visualizations, role-specific analytics views, and reporting capabilities for different user groups
Partner with operations and engineering teams to use telemetry and APM data to improve system reliability, identify bottlenecks, and support root cause analysis
Lead major incident analysis where analytics or observability performance impacts mission or platform operations

- Proven experience with analytics patterns such as:
indexed query optimization
field aggregations and composite aggregations
nested/document-based aggregations
rollups and summary generation
caching strategies for query performance
Experience tuning analytics and search services for strict latency and SLA-driven workflows
