With Grafana Cloud's actually useful AI, organizations can see, understand, and act on all their disparate data to move at the speed of their ambitions.

We are a 100% remote company with 1,600+ team members across 40+ countries, and we’re backed by leading investors including Lightspeed Venture Partners, Sequoia Capital, GIC, Coatue, J.P. Morgan, CapitalG, and Lead Edge Capital. Learn more at grafana.com and follow us on LinkedIn and X.
We’re scaling fast and staying true to what makes us different: an open-source legacy, a global collaborative culture, and a passion for meaningful work. Our team thrives in an innovation-driven 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 career-defining opportunity.
Grafana Observability builds end-to-end observability that spans application, infrastructure, database, browser, and mobile. Our Real User Monitoring (RUM) initiative focuses on capturing, storing, and querying high-volume user interaction data from browsers and mobile devices, enabling teams to understand real-world user experiences at scale.
We’re building systems that ingest and process massive amounts of telemetry—sessions, events, traces, and logs—and make them explorable in real time. This requires deep expertise in high-performance backend systems, columnar storage, and intuitive frontend experiences.
Our solutions are tightly integrated with OpenTelemetry and Grafana Cloud. We care deeply about performance, cost-efficiency, and developer experience across the entire stack—from instrumentation to query layer to visualization.
We value open standards, great developer experience, and doing the hard engineering needed to ship reliable software at scale. You may not meet every requirement below. If this role excites you, please raise your hand.
We invest heavily in developer productivity. You can use modern AI coding assistants as part of your daily workflow (your choice of tools, within security guidelines), backed by a company-funded usage budget so you can iterate quickly without unnecessary friction.
We encourage pragmatic AI-assisted development: faster prototyping, test generation, refactors, documentation, and incident follow-ups—always paired with strong code review and quality standards.
You’ll also have access to frontier models (e.g., GPT-Codex 5/3, Claude Opus 4.6, Gemini 3 Pro).
In the United States, the compensation range for this role is $154,445 - $185,334 USD.

All of our roles include Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), giving every team member ownership in Grafana Labs' success. We believe in shared outcomes—RSUs help us stay aligned and invested as we scale globally.
