Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Petrovic is a senior engineering leader with 13 years of experience building high-throughput observability and data pipelines at Atlassian. He has led cross-company migrations and re-architectures—moving metrics from Datadog to SignalFx for thousands of engineers and redesigning metric and logging pipelines from statsd/Kinesis to Kafka and Flink to handle millions of messages per second and hundreds of terabytes per day. Hands-on across Go and distributed systems, he designed Atlassian’s in-house synthetic monitoring and sharded metric aggregators that scaled throughput over 1000%. He combines technical strategy with people leadership, prioritizing team motivation while steering long-running, company-wide programs. Based in Sydney, he brings a pragmatic blend of SRE discipline and product-minded engineering that reduces operational toil and improves reliability. An early career focus on realtime systems and message-driven architectures still informs his approach to scalable observability.
