Company mission
To unite data, no matter where it lives, and empower its users to analyze, take action, and make smart decisions.
Role
Who you are
- You are a motivated self starter with a bias towards action
- You are customer focused
- We build everything with our users in mind
- You have a passion for creating intuitive products that fit customers’ needs
- Pragmatism: You are able to take on complex challenges and break them down to achieve short feedback loops: to analyze, design, and build modular solutions, deliver MVPs, gather data and feedback and then progress iteratively
- Collaboration and communication: The smallest unit we have is a team. You’ll be working with your teammates in a fully remote setup. Good communication skills are a must
- Experience with at least one native mobile platform (Android or iOS)
- Strong experience building production Flutter apps, including state management, navigation, asynchronous programming, and architecting maintainable codebases
- Experience taking mobile features from idea to release in a self-driven way, from clarifying requirements and exploring solutions to building, testing, CI/CD workflows, and shipping updates to the App Store and Google Play
- Comfort integrating mobile apps with backend APIs and cloud services
- Write clean, maintainable, and performant code that is easy for other engineers to understand and extend
- Familiarity with being on-call and performing operations/SRE tasks or with the concept of infrastructure as code
Desirable
- 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, or a desire to learn
- Experience contributing to or maintaining open-source projects
What the job involves
- Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your own career objectives
- Work with your team to deliver new features, then use the results to iterate and improve
- Drive projects from initial ideation all the way to operations once it is in the hands of customers
- Embrace our open-source culture and contribute to other projects that may not directly fall within your team’s scope
- Design, build, operate, and maintain Grafana’s mobile Application, owning the reliability, performance, and availability
- Be a part of your team’s on-call rotations and take ownership of the application you’re running
- Mentor and support other team members, participate in design discussions and collaborate with the team
- Learn new skills by gaining a deeper understanding of our cloud product and our customers and getting to know the codebase of a large distributed system
Our take
Observability plays a crucial role in software development, where dashboards are pivotal for monitoring the health of IT infrastructure across an organization. However, for developers, the frustration of spending unnecessary time navigating between different dashboards to find the latest information detracts from valuable programming time.
Grafana collaborates closely with its clients to create customizable observability platforms, striving to enhance efficiency in observability. Its offerings include cloud-based data structures, dashboards, API plugins, and collaboration tools. Currently, Grafana boasts over 25M users globally, with a customer base exceeding 5,000, including prominent names like Bloomberg, PJ Morgan Chase, eBay, PayPal, and Sony.
While Grafana provides free plans with a simplified tool package, the Grafana Enterprise Stack offers customized observability solutions on a monthly subscription basis. The company's ongoing strategy revolves around continually improving Grafana to meet users' demands, enhancing functionality with each iteration, and fostering community engagement by enabling users to share their Grafana dashboards with the broader open-source community.
