Sr. Managing Architect

Your role at Dynatrace

The Center of Excellence team is responsible for increasing the ability to scale platform expertise across the entire Dynatrace Customer Success organization. Focused on topics that drive Dynatrace value, adoption and retention with customers, the Center of Excellence acts as a point of contact for Dynatrace Customer Success for specialized customer engagements, proliferation of best practices and driving of key enablement activities. The Center of Excellence engages in cross-functional collaborative activities to ensure that all departments within Dynatrace Customer Success have the right tools and knowledge at their disposal to further drive customer value.   As a Sr. Managing Architect in the Center of Excellence team, you are an Architect who leads a focused team of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). You retain full ownership of one or more mission critical topics — including (but not limited to) logs, security, cloud, Kubernetes, developer observability, business analytics and digital experience management — and you are yourself a Subject Matter Expert who defines best practices together with stakeholders to scale specialized expertise within Dynatrace Customer Success. Alongside that technical ownership, you carry formal people leadership responsibility for a team of CoE architects and consultants. The emphasis of this role is technical. You are expected to remain hands-on and technically current: you write, review and defend the technical substance of what your team and the CoE produces rather than only managing its production. Your people leadership is the multiplier on that expertise — you steer the team to effective and efficient contribution across a wider set of high-priority topics, and you deliberately grow technical depth in others so that expertise in your area does not depend on you alone.   Measures of Success:

Success in this role is proven through the combination of personal technical contribution and demonstrated ability to steer others. Neither alone is sufficient.
