Grafana Labs is looking to streamline the transport of Metrics, Logs, Traces and Profiles to Grafana Cloud and its OSS counterparts, ensuring that required infrastructure can be operated with ease by their customer base who deploy and manage hundreds of thousands of Observability Collector instances worldwide.
Requirements
- Solid experience with at least one programming language. We use Go, but if you have familiarity with Python, C, C++, Rust or similar then that translates well
- Experience with delivering projects, from gathering requirements, brain-storming ideas all the way to shipping a product to the customer’s hands in a self-driven way
- Experience with developing software that runs in the Cloud or some experience with systems engineering
- Experience with being on-call and performing operations/SRE tasks or with the concept of infrastructure as code
- Experience working with Kubernetes
- Been a user of Grafana and Prometheus in operational roles (including on-call for your team at a previous employer or just using these tools on hobby/homelab projects)
- Exposure to microservices architecture and distributed systems
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with your team to deliver new features, analyze outcomes, and make improvements
- Lead projects from concept to implementation, including ongoing customer support
- Become an active contributor of open source projects like Grafana Alloy and the OpenTelemetry Collector
- Design, build, operate, and maintain essential systems, ensuring reliability, performance, and availability
- Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your own career objectives
- Participate in on-call rotations and take responsibility for the services you oversee
- Support and mentor team members, engage in design conversations, and work closely with colleagues
Other
- This is a remote opportunity and we are looking for candidates based in the US or Canada.
- You may not meet every requirement, and that’s okay. If this role excites you, we’d love you to raise your hand for what could be a truly career-defining opportunity.
- As we have embraced a remote-first approach and our engineering team is primarily remote, strong communication skills and the ability to work independently are essential.
- You are a motivated self-starter with a bias toward action
- You have a passion for creating intuitive products that fit customers’ needs.
