Grafana Labs is a remotefirst, opensource powerhouse. There are more than 20M users of Grafana, the open source visualization tool, around the globe, monitoring everything from beehives to climate change in the Alps. The instantly recognizable dashboards have been spotted everywhere from a NASA launch and Minecraft HQ to Wimbledon and the Tour de France. Grafana Labs also helps more than 3,000 companies including Bloomberg, JPMorgan Chase, and eBay manage their observability strategies with the Grafana LGTM Stack, which can be run fully managed with Grafana Cloud or selfmanaged with the Grafana Enterprise Stack , both featuring scalable metrics (Grafana Mimir ), logs (Grafana Loki ), and traces (Grafana Tempo ).

We’re scaling fast and staying true to what makes us different: an opensource legacy, a global collaborative culture, and a passion for meaningful work. Our team thrives in an innovationdriven environment where transparency, autonomy, and trust fuel everything we do.

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 careerdefining opportunity.

This is a remote opportunity and we would be interested in applicants from the United States MSTCSTEST time zones only at this time.

The Opportunity:
