We're looking for candidates based in the U.S or Canada.
We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer familiar with GoLang to join our Grafana Backend Services squad.
The Grafana Backend Services squad’s mission is to deliver the best Grafana service to both On-Prem and Cloud customers in a unified, end-to-end manner, from ownership of the API codebase all the way to operation of its components. Today, this means taking charge of multiple components such as the Grafana Backend API itself and the CLI tool, but also all the orchestration infrastructure required to deliver Grafana at the scale of our Cloud product.
Your day-to-day will include:
Work with your team to deliver new functionality, then use the results to iterate and improve.
Contributing to and reviewing design documents for upcoming features.
Embrace our open-source culture and contribute to other projects that may not directly fall within your team’s scope.
Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your career objectives.
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.
Regularly share ideas and knowledge across a vast array of technical ideologies and mindsets.
Work closely with the other squads in the Grafana Division.
We're excited about you because you:
Have solid experience with Go.
Have a good understanding of storage solutions with an emphasis on relational databases like MySQL, SQLite, and Postgres.
Care deeply about developer and user experience and the quality of the products that you work on.
Have experience with delivering projects from gathering requirements, brainstorming ideas to shipping a product to the customer’s hands in a self-driven way.
Have experience writing clean, robust, and performant software that is easily maintained by others.
Have experience with mentoring junior engineers in a collaborative but asynchronous environment.
Enjoy working on complex solutions – Grafana is a highly technical solution and has avid followers who rely on it every day and care deeply about their workflows.
Can take on complex challenges and break them down to achieve tight learning loops: to analyze, design, and build modular solutions, deliver MVPs, gather data and feedback, and then progress iteratively.
Bonus Points:
Experience with open-source software and/or commercial open-source companies.
Experience working with Docker and Kubernetes.
Experience with CI/CD, DevOps, or Developer Efficiency work streams.
Been a user of Grafana and Prometheus in operational roles.
Familiarity with being on-call and performing operations/SRE tasks.
Exposure to microservices architecture and distributed systems, or a desire to learn.
