Systemd auto-restarts of units can hide problems from you
Worth looking into prometheus. in basic form that'd be gathering metrics from https://github.com/prometheus-community/systemd_exporter on your hosts, and configure alerting in grafana or prometheus alertmanager to notify when a threshold is exceeded

Linux process monitoring solutions
Before you get into process monitoring, you probably want to look at cgroup monitoring. Since most services are started by systemd units, you can use the systemd_exporter or cAdvisor to track process groups.

Looking for an open source monitoring solution that will capture specific process info
OP is specifically asking about MacOS, but for *nix use-cases, there's the process_exporter that works to expose process level statistics. https://github.com/ncabatoff/process-exporter
- Monitor the highest CPU consuming process in prometheus

Linux process monitoring solutions
However, the process_exporter is useful for some situations where software has complex subprocess management and you want to track based on the cmdline running. For example all of the various PostgreSQL worker processes.
