Grafana Labs

What We Do

At Grafana Labs, we are the creators of Pyroscope, an open-source continuous profiling database that offers rapid, scalable, highly reliable, and efficient storage and querying capabilities. It aids in gaining a comprehensive insight into resource utilization within applications, right down to the specific line of code. The project seamlessly integrates with Grafana, enabling users to correlate profiling data with metrics, logs, and traces, and leverage profiles as a crucial component of application observability. Our dedicated backend development team works closely with clients and the Grafana Cloud teams to deliver profiling solutions for on-premises and cloud environments at scale.

Projects Undertaken

  • Implementing distributed systems to effectively manage profile ingestion and queries.
  • Establishing instrumentation support for various programming languages including Golang, Dotnet, Java, Ruby, eBPF, Python, Node.js, and Rust.
  • Built & Enhanced the functionality of the Pyroscope plugins to provide users with an intuitive interface for exploring and analyzing application profiles.

Your Role

As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will:

  • Collaborate with your team to deliver new features, analyze outcomes, and make improvements.
  • Lead projects from concept to implementation, including ongoing customer support.
  • Design, build, operate, and maintain essential systems, ensuring reliability, performance, and availability.
  • Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your own career objectives.
  • Participate in on-call rotations and take responsibility for the services you oversee.
  • Support and mentor team members, engage in design conversations, and work closely with colleagues.
  • Expand your skill set by deepening your knowledge of our cloud products, understanding our customers, and learning about our codebase.

What We Look For

  • Solid experience with at least one programming language. We use Go, but familiarity with Python, C, C++, Rust or similar translates well.
  • Experience with delivering projects from gathering requirements, brainstorming ideas all the way to shipping a product to the customer’s hands in a self-driven way.
  • Experience with developing software that runs in the Cloud or some experience with systems engineering.
  • Experience writing clean, robust, and performant software that is easily maintained by others.

Nice To Haves

  • 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.
  • Familiarity with being on-call and performing operations/SRE tasks or with the concept of infrastructure as code.
