Job Description
Grafana Ops helps engineers detect, respond and learn from system incidents with minimal toil. We develop alerting systems, on-call software, and incident management products that help teams keep their systems stable and available. Our products are built on top of Grafana's open source observability platform, and it's important that as we grow, we improve our performance, increase our reliability and delight our users every step of the way. We are growing our team with passionate developers like you to drive innovation in the Incident Management and AI Ops space.
We are developing brand new ML and data driven applications to address real problems in the observability and operations space. Engineers and data scientists are empowered and given the space to explore, innovate and deliver new and exciting features.
Backend engineering roles at Grafana require engineers focused on performance and reliability and who enjoy taking projects from conception to production. Since we deploy production services, we have on-call rotations to ensure the health of the system. We use all of our own products for operations, so being on-call is an important way to understand our system and how to use the tools we create.
Our culture is one of remote-first, and our engineering organization is entirely remote. We provide guidance and meet regularly using video calls. We are looking for people who are independent and excellent communicators.

We know that data has incredible power to solve complex problems, transform business, drive innovation, and ultimately make the world a better place. The unfortunate reality is that the data we need often lives all over the place in disparate systems across geos, platforms, servers, and more. It’s our mission as Grafanistas to unite data, no matter where it lives, and empower our users to analyze, take action, and make smart decisions.
Building a powerful product takes a village — from engineering to customer success to people operations and beyond. What’s your calling?
