- By fulfilling our three core missions, you will contribute importantly to Grafana Labs’ community and business goals
- We understand that our commercial success is linked to our open source DNA and users’ success with our software
- As such, we want team members who can effectively leverage this connection and help support the long-term health of our company
- In this role, you will balance reactive and proactive work, responding to inbound inquiries as well as outreaching to target accounts
- You will need to research and have a detective mindset in order to craft thoughtful, value-add messaging; and you’ll need to be confident driving business conversations on the phone
- You will need to know how to use AI as a tool to constantly improve your productivity
- This is a demanding and rewarding role
- It is a fast-paced and challenging environment
- While our company is growing sustainably, we still have a lot of building and improving to do

- This is a great team to join, whether you’re just starting your career or looking to pivot into the tech industry
- You’ll have managers and teammates that care deeply about you as a professional and human, and you will learn more than you thought possible
- Build and maintain knowledge of our technology, competitors, open source ecosystem, and industry trends
- Follow up on inbound leads effectively and efficiently
- Use a multi-channel approach (email, social, calling) to proactively outreach to new leads within target accounts; our top SDRs are confident and effective on the phone

Application process
- Let’s be honest - interviewing is not easy. However, we want you to come prepared and succeed. When we interview, we’re trying to determine a couple of things:
- Would you be successful if you were part of our team?
- Will you love working here and be a positive influence on your fellow colleagues?
- Will you grow professionally and personally during your time here?
- We’re looking for people who are curious and passionate about technology, so make sure you invest some time in learning about Grafana Labs. Explore our community, the industry we operate in, what we offer, and how we set ourselves apart
- During your interview, you’ll be sharing stories about your current and past roles and experiences. The best way to frame this is with the CARR model: Context, Action, Results, Reflection. This allows you to succinctly share the experiences you’ve gained
- Remember, humility drives learning and we love working with people who are always trying to better themselves. Throughout our interview process, you will receive feedback, and usually directly in the interview
- As you move through the interview process, make sure you listen to the feedback you receive and figure out how to incorporate the advice in the next step of the interview
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, FGrafana boasts over 21M active instances and approximately 10M users globally, with a customer base exceeding 2,000, 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.
