<div>Grafana Labs is a remote-first, open-source 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 <a href="https://grafana.com/products/cloud/">Grafana Cloud</a> or self-managed with the <a href="https://grafana.com/products/enterprise/">Grafana Enterprise Stack</a>, both featuring scalable metrics (<a href="https://grafana.com/oss/mimir/">Grafana Mimir</a>), logs (<a href="https://grafana.com/oss/loki/">Grafana Loki</a>), and traces (<a href="https://grafana.com/oss/tempo/">Grafana Tempo</a>). 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.</div><div> <div> <h2>This is a remote opportunity and we would be interested in applicants from the USA time zones only at this time. </h2> The Opportunity:  What is Grafana Cloud? Grafana Cloud is our composable observability platform that integrates metrics, logs, traces, and profiles with Grafana. It allows our customers to leverage the best open source observability software – including Prometheus, Mimir, Loki, Tempo, and Pyroscope – without the overhead of installing, maintaining and scaling their own observability stack. The Databases department owns and operates the telemetry databases that are<a href="https://github.com/grafana/mimir"> Mimir for metrics</a>,<a href="https://github.com/grafana/loki"> Loki for logs</a>,<a href="https://github.com/grafana/tempo"> Tempo for traces</a>, and<a href="https://github.com/grafana/pyroscope"> Pyroscope for profiles</a>. We offer our databases as a Cloud service supporting Grafana Cloud, and additionally as on-premise solutions with <a href="https://grafana.com/products/enterprise/metrics/">Grafana Enterprise Metrics</a>, <a href="https://grafana.com/products/enterprise/logs/">Grafana Enterprise Logs</a>, and <a href="https://grafana.com/blog/2021/11/09/introducing-grafana-enterprise-traces/">Grafana Enterprise Traces</a>. Adaptive Telemetry Group The Adaptive Telemetry group, part of the Databases department, has the mission of ensuring that all telemetry stored in our databases is worthy of attention. Under that mission, the group is responsible for the development of <a href="https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/cost-management-and-billing/reduce-costs/metrics-costs/control-metrics-usage-via-adaptive-metrics/">Adaptive Metrics</a>, <a href="https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/cost-management-and-billing/reduce-costs/logs-costs/adaptive-logs/">Adaptive Logs</a>, <a href="https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/adaptive-telemetry/adaptive-traces/">Adaptive Traces</a> and Adaptive Profiles. Our Adaptive Telemetry solutions give users the ability to control and optimize their telemetry data. These solutions ensure that data storage is optimized based on individual usage patterns, so only the most valuable data is retained. Each Adaptive Telemetry solution comes with a Grafana plugin that allows for manual adjustments to the solution’s behavior or the acceptance of system-generated recommendations. Our Grafana plugins are Typescript applications developed with React and tested with Jest and Playwright.
