• A Community-Minded Collaborator: You thrive with working with cross-functional teams and understand the nuances of contributing to and working with open-source communities.

• You have experience contributing directly to an open-source project (especially OpenTelemetry) or have deep familiarity with the Elastic Stack, Datadog, or other major observability vendors.
