Job description
Checkly Monitoring as Code Engineer at Checkly.
About the role
This role centers on monitoring and observability for developers, emphasizing product ownership and reliability across the full development lifecycle. It operates within a remote-first, async-first startup environment focused on Monitoring as Code.
Marketing teams grow awareness and demand for a company's products. They write copy, run campaigns, manage channels, and measure results. The work spans content, paid ads, email, events, and search. Marketing roles combine creativity with data and constant testing. Marketing teams usually run experiments every week and keep the work that performs. Most companies hire specialists in channels such as paid search, email, or content.
Key facts
What you'll do
Define and iterate on Monitoring as Code workflows and observability infrastructure to ensure application performance and reliability from pull request to post-mortem for development teams. The role uses Monitoring as Code and Playwright to replace legacy monitoring providers and deliver cost-effective monitoring of APIs and applications for developer ownership and impact.
Establish and refine monitoring configurations and alerts as code artifacts, enabling teams to maintain consistent observability standards across environments and services. You will collaborate with development teams to embed monitoring into CI/CD pipelines so performance and reliability are validated before production deployment.
Translate product and reliability requirements into observable metrics and automated checks, providing development teams with clear insight into application behavior from pull request to post-mortem.
Requirements
The posting states a bachelor's degree requirement. Hold the degree listed in the requirements to meet the standard for the role and to engage with modern observability workflows. Thrive in a startup environment by taking ownership and delivering impact as part of a distributed team.
Operate effectively within a modern tech stack centered on Monitoring as Code and Playwright, and adapt to a mostly remote and remote-first work arrangement. Engage with a transparent culture supported by public tools and processes, including the pay calculator and employee handbook. Collaborate with a team of smart, hard-working people and an active leadership team to achieve shared outcomes in monitoring and reliability.
Practical notes
Roles align with a remote-first and async-first culture. The team maintains an inclusive benefits framework and transparent compensation practices. Typical interview steps
Marketing interviews often include a portfolio review, a campaign exercise, and analytics questions. Candidates may be asked to plan a launch, write a brief, or improve a funnel. Some loops include a presentation. Results from past campaigns carry the most weight. Interviewers ask about specific campaigns you ran and what the numbers said. Preparing a short case of one campaign with its results is strong preparation.
Good to know
Questions to ask
Useful questions for the interview: what a typical week looks like, how work is assigned, what tools the team uses, and how feedback works. Asking how the role has changed recently and what the team wishes it had known when joining is also reasonable. Questions about the manager's priorities are especially valued.
Career growth
Marketing careers move from associate to manager, director, and VP levels. Specializations include growth, brand, product marketing, and content. Generalists often start, then specialize as they advance. Measured impact on pipeline and revenue drives progression. Marketing careers reward measurable results and adaptability. Channel experience plus business sense usually beats a general resume.
