Remote Frontend Jobs

The Grafana Frontend group is responsible for the end to end user experience on Grafana the observability product and Grafana the platform used by many engineers to build plugins. Our squads are responsible for dashboards, data visualisation and manipulation, navigation across the ecosystem, sharing experience, content search,organisation and more.

DataPro The DataPro squad develops tools that empower users to express their data. We serve as the bridge between data producers (Data Sources) and consumers (Data Visualizations), enhancing the capabilities of data sources in line with our "big tent" philosophy.

What we do:

• Query experience & Data manipulation: We build and evolve the query experience as well as the engine and components behind the Grafana data transformations experience, which primarily includes Transformations and SQL Expressions.
• Community Engagement: we listen to the open-source community, we retrieve contributions, and turn feedback into real improvements.
• Operational Excellence: we own the performance, reliability, and maintainability of a system that runs at global scale. We value readability, maintainability and clarity of our code.

How we work:

• No blame: We focus on learning and improving ourselves and our product.
• Better done than perfect: We iterate quickly and deliver value continuously.
• User-first: We design for real users solving real problems and we make data-driven decisions.
• Mentorship & Innovation: we grow together through knowledge sharing, mentorship, internal hackathons, and constant learning.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your own career objectives
• Drive projects from initial idea all the way to operations once it is in the hands of customers
• Be a part of your team’s on-call rotations and take ownership of the services 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
• Contributing to and reviewing design documents for upcoming features

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).

What Makes a Great Fit

• Strong engineering skills: Solid experience building production software systems. You’re a self-starter, capable of tackling complex engineering problems with minimal supervision. You treat writing tests as a core part of the development process, not an afterthought.
• You have experience with TypeScript and React, Jest and Playwright.
• Complex operational thinking: Can take on complex challenges and break them down into tight feedback loops: analyze, design, ship an MVP, gather data, then iterate.
• Proven initiative and pragmatism: You take ownership and drive projects forward, pushing boundaries to find the most impactful solutions. You can deal with ambiguity and define scope, breaking complex challenges down to achieve short feedback loops.
• Collaborative attitude: You communicate effectively with peers, product managers, and designers. You’re open to feedback, and you bring a solutions-oriented mindset to the table.
• Enjoy learning, growing, and supporting others to do the same.
• Appreciate efficiency and strive to identify and utilize the most effective tools for the task at hand. You naturally share your use of these tools with your team to maintain transparency and growth.

Bonus Points For

• Experience with open source software and/or commercial open source companies
• Been a user of Grafana and Prometheus in operational roles
• Familiarity with being on-call and performing operations/SRE tasks
• Have an active interest in observability (Metrics, Logs and Traces) and have experience with tools like Grafana, Prometheus, or other observability platforms.
• Have experience mentoring engineers in a collaborative but asynchronous environment, and see it as a meaningful
• Care about our community of users and contributors and are keen to be an active Grafana Community Contributor.
