Senior Software Engineer - Hyperscaler & Strategic Partner Integrations (AI)

Dynatrace's growth is increasingly tied to deep, co-engineered partnerships with the three hyperscalers and with the IDE and AI-tooling vendors developers actually use day-to-day. Recent integrations show that hyperscalers and IDE providers are no longer just deployment targets but co-development partners. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has become the connective tissue: Dynatrace ships MCP servers so that Claude, Cursor, VS Code, JetBrains, Kiro, and other AI-assisted IDEs can query observability data natively. At the same time, customer workloads are shifting from traditional services to agentic AI systems that need a fundamentally new kind of observability.

This role sits at that intersection. You will build the product code that makes Dynatrace work seamlessly with hyperscaler AI services and with the AI-native IDEs developers use to build on top of them, in close technical collaboration with engineering counterparts at AWS, Microsoft, Google, Anthropic, GitHub, and Cursor.

The work is shipping code - APIs, agents, integrations, MCP servers, IDE extensions, telemetry pipelines - with partner engineers in the room.

What you will do

• Design and build integrations between Dynatrace and hyperscaler AI / observability services
• Build and maintain Dynatrace's Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers so AI assistants and agents can query problems, traces, logs, and Davis insights as first-class tools - and contribute upstream to the MCP spec where it matters.
• Co-develop with IDE providers (Anthropic / Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, JetBrains AI, Cursor, Windsurf, AWS Kiro, Gemini CLI) so Dynatrace observability shows up where developers already work - plugins, extensions, slash commands, MCP integrations.
• Co-develop with partner engineering teams at AWS, Microsoft, Google, and IDE vendors - joint design docs, shared backlogs, paired debugging across org boundaries.
• Extend Dynatrace's OneAgent and OpenTelemetry pipelines to capture traces, metrics, and evaluations from agentic AI workloads (tool calls, prompt chains, model latency, hallucination signals).
• Contribute to launch-partner integrations - being one of the first observability providers shipping against a new hyperscaler or IDE-vendor service requires fast iteration against pre-GA APIs.
• Own a slice of the partner-facing SDK, MCP server, or IDE-extension surface end-to-end: code, tests, docs, marketplace listing, on-call.
• Represent Dynatrace engineering in technical reviews with partners; translate Dynatrace's Davis AI and causal-AI capabilities into terms partner engineers care about.
• Mentor other engineers and raise the bar on how the team works across org boundaries.

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience building and operating production backend systems.
• Strong proficiency in at least one of Java, Go, Python, or TypeScript; able to ramp on a second within a quarter.
• Designed and shipped public-facing or partner-facing APIs (REST and / or gRPC), including versioning, backwards compatibility, and SDK ergonomics.

Hyperscaler depth (at least one)

• Hands-on, production-grade experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP - building against native SDKs, not just deploying to VMs.
• Concrete familiarity with the partner-relevant surface of that cloud:

AWS: Bedrock / AgentCore, Lambda, EKS, CloudWatch, AWS Marketplace, Partner Network (APN).

Azure: Azure OpenAI, AKS, Azure Monitor, SRE Agent, Azure Marketplace, MISA.

GCP: Vertex AI / Gemini, GKE, Cloud Operations, Google Cloud Marketplace, Partner Advantage.

Observability and AI workloads

• Working knowledge of observability primitives: metrics, logs, distributed tracing, OpenTelemetry instrumentation.
• Understanding of how to instrument LLM and agentic-AI workloads: prompt / response capture, token usage, tool-call traces, evaluation signals, latency and cost attribution.
• Comfortable reasoning about SLOs, error budgets, and incident response in customer-facing systems.

• We offer attractive compensation packages and stock purchase options with numerous benefits and advantages.
• Due to legal reasons, we are obliged to list a salary range for this position, which is €61,000 up to €92,000 gross per year based on full-time employment (38.5 h/week). We've listed the salary range for transparency, but if your experience and skills bring unique value, we'd still love to hear from you-please apply even if you're outside the range.

MCP and IDE-provider integration * Practical experience with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) - building MCP servers, clients, or both. Comfortable with stdio and HTTP transports, tool / resource / prompt primitives, auth, and the realities of running MCP in production. * Built at least one IDE extension, plugin, or integration that real developers used - for VS Code, JetBrains, Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Kiro, or similar. * Understands the AI-assisted developer workflow end-to-end: how agents discover tools, how context windows fill up, how tool outputs get re-ranked, why a well-designed tool schema matters more than a clever prompt. * Can reason about trade-offs of agent-facing API design vs. human-facing API design (token cost, determinism, error surfacing, idempotency). Why you will love being a Dynatracer * Dynatrace is a leader in unified observability and security. * We provide a culture of excellence with competitive compensation packages designed to recognize and reward performance. * Our employees work with the largest cloud providers, including AWS, Microsoft, and Google Cloud, and other leading partners worldwide to create strategic alliances. * You'll get to work at the forefront of innovation with Dynatrace Intelligence-the industry's first agentic operations system. Bringing together deterministic and agentic AI, it helps teams understand what's happening, why it matters, and what to do next- automatically. * Over 50% of the Fortune 100 companies are current customers of Dynatrace.
