Automation coding tasks are always fun using Emacs or Vim!

Today I realized these hearts are for languages, always saw these and thought these would be for family 😂. Made my day.

I love my job because we like to stay on the bleeding edge of Dynatrace features! We always have lots of use cases and I thoroughly enjoy testing them out with the previews of the new features we get from Dynatrace. 

[Mike_L]

I love my job because my team is amazing, I am able to help a lot of people, and I get to combine technical experience with people management.

[GilesDay]

...because I get to have a part in improving internal and public-facing services that so many people use. By providing in-depth metrics for a variety of user types to identify the root cause of incidents and hopefully prevent incidents by providing real-time and historical metrics.

[AntonioSousa]

I love my job because I've been doing performance/optimization/security before I even started working!

Since 1985 that all this has been going on! Starting with assembling code, byte by byte in a 48KB Spectrum, using the Internet in the early 90s, implementing telework in 1995, synthetics by 2001, hacking it all over the next 10 years, and finally getting the hands-on on Dynatrace, there has not been a work day without joyfull work!

[RohitBisht]

I love working in Dynatrace as every morning I have a good feeling starting my work, really like the people I work with here and enjoy the role.

[AhmedKhaled_94]

I love the feeling I get when I learn something new, and with Dynatrace that is almost everyday 😁

[Patrick_H]

I love my job, because it never gets boring. There are new challenges every day and solving them together with a great team makes me enjoy my work.

[Yosi_Neuman]

Ammm .... this challenge is interesting !!! 

Every time we show prospects and customers what they can do and see with dynatrace and their jaw drops to the floor I think to my self "WOW what a wonderful job I have! "

But still need to figure out if this made me LOVE my job or its actually the interaction with different prospects and customers on a daily basis and help them to make more out of this platform that is keep growing and chaining all the time

What I love about my job is working with Dynatrace overall. Every organization presents their own usecases and needs, and it's so rewarding when you develop a solution for that usecase/need, where you leveraged some out-side-the-box thinking. Then once you have built a solution, showcased it to the organization, you then bundle that up in a community post and share it with the rest of the community. 

It's the ability to think freely, be an expert in the Dynatrace Platform, and sharing that with everyone - including the community!💓

An upcoming post will be about a set of single custom metric events set at a global level with the ability to isolate out individual entities to have a particular threshold/criteria outside a global baselined rule.

I love my Job because i get my salary at the end of the month.

Otherwise I can stay sleeping and don't wakeup at 6h everyday. 😂

That said, the daily challenges motivated us to Love our Job, helping others, dependency on Monitoring tools specially Dynatrace here are important for our daily dutties.

[radek_jasinski]

I love my job because I can plan my day however I want. Every day, I have a lot of opportunities to build my competencies. I really like the moments when I solve problems in my customers’ environments. I also have opportunities to meet people from around the world and work remotely. 😎

[kuncarlos]

I love my job because there's minimal hierarchy, meaning I can speak with anyone directly. Our multicultural team is incredibly supportive, and I'm constantly learning something new. This environment is what makes my job so enjoyable.

[marina_pollehn]

I love my job because everyone is truly themselves there. Found some metal and pen & paper fans very quickly so I always have people to discuss current festival line-ups or bands coming to town with 😁. I love that we admit mistakes and say a "well done" to each other after a great demo, training or brainstorm.  Or hand each other a beer after work if there's been a very tough day for once. Also, that we meet up for dinner and drinks because we really enjoy each other's company.

I get flowers with moving, a giant box with treats and an amazing christmas party with overnight stay in december, a beer tasting for successful exams,...only negative point is that I need to sport more to compensate :D.

I love that I get to coach internal employees and that when I give training to customers, I am often the first person or impression that they associate with Dynatrace. So I get the chance to leave them with a good feeling and wanting to learn more. And I love that almost no day is the same. Training, demos, Dynatrace events, settings, best-practice brainstorming, designs, problem analysis,....can someone even get bored then?

Working with Dynatrace is truly exciting! 

It’s a powerful and intelligent tool that makes troubleshooting complex customer issues not only efficient but also incredibly rewarding.

I love the challenge of diving deep into performance problems, uncovering hidden insights, and delivering solutions that make a real impact.

Every day brings new learning opportunities, and that’s what makes working with Dynatrace so fascinating!

[Eric_Yu]

What I love about my job is the constant learning and problem-solving. Every day brings new challenges, and finding solutions that make a real impact is always satisfying. Plus, working with great people makes it even better!

Since I was a child, I have loved puzzles and putting things together, and this hobby that I have had since childhood accompanied me throughout my growth. Once I graduated as a Computer Engineer at the University, I realized that I had masterful training in solving problems.
Today in particular, I think that what I like most about my job is that in essence I continue solving puzzles, with thousands of pieces, but in this particular case of Dynatrace, in an environment that is constantly innovating, with a team of brilliant people, and a community and peers that I realize that everyone has some of this passion in what they do and love. So you could say that none of us are working, because as the famous phrase attributed to Confucius says, "Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life."

[gopher]

I absolutely love 😘 using observability tools to demonstrate to support and developers that their apps are the problem and not the platform.

[Kenny_Gillette]

I love my job using Dynatrace because tackling performance issues feels like solving intricate puzzles on a computer. Dynatrace and I make a perfect match because there are always fascinating challenges to unravel, and using Dynatrace to solve them is consistently thrilling.

[Josh_P]

I love finding creative monitoring solutions that delivers the metrics the requester is asking for as well as continued tool consolidation. Being presented with unique monitoring/observability challenges and requests never makes for a dull day and keeps work fresh. 

[RazTN7]

I 💓 my job for two main reasons: the fantastic people I get to party 🍺 with, and of course, the financial 🤑 stability it provides.

 keeps me on my toes to learn something new.

If you make a rapid search what Job word means "A task or piece of work that's paid", knowing this I brought some "Jobs" I have. First of all, and more common, I'm a Fullstack Developer and I love to work with, solving problems is one of my biggest passions. But different of the others here, I have a weird POV. My actual job, sync with being Developer, I'm an uncle! Yeah, you read right... I'm a paid uncle; my nephews pay me with love and in exchange I give them the Best Uncle someone can have (I have a Medal to prove it). I built a lot of stuff to them, like castles, Hoverboard Karts, Tree Swing, and I take care of them like my own blood. 

You can judge me if you want, but this type of "salary" is more valuable than ANY money and gold.
