This is a remote position. We are looking for candidates in Sweden only.

What we do

The Grafana Alerting squad operates at the core of the Grafana open-source project , and our mission is to provide the most in-depth way to let users manage their alerts. The backend-focused team works closely with customers and the Grafana Cloud teams to make Alerting work on-prem and at infinite scale in Cloud.

Our domain is quite large, so to get an idea of the kind of work we do, here are some projects we recently worked on:

Build distributed systems to scale alert ingestion and delivery of Prometheus-based alertsUnify Alerting setup and delivery to work the same for Grafana and Prometheus-based alertsBuild distributed systems to scale alert evaluation of Grafana-managed alerts, reaching over 500 evaluations per second in production.

Grafana Alerting is trusted by major organizations worldwide, monitoring essential medical devices and critical infrastructure. We thrive on collective creativity and diverse perspectives, every team member is encouraged to contribute ideas that shape our product into a dependable tool.

Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your own career objectives Work with your team to deliver new features, then use the results to iterate and improve.Drive projects from initial ideation all the way to operations once it is in the hands of customersEmbrace our open-source culture and contribute to other projects that may not directly fall within your team’s scopeDesign, build, operate, and maintain critical systems, owning the reliability, performance, and availabilityBe a part of your team’s on-call rotations and take ownership of the services you’re runningMentor and support other team members, participate in design discussions and collaborate with the teamLearn new skills by gaining a deeper understanding of our cloud product and our customers and getting to know the codebase of a large distributed system

As we are remote-first and our engineering organization is largely remote, we provide guidance and meet regularly using video calls, so an independent attitude and good communication skills are a must.

You are a motivated self starter with a bias towards actionYou are customer focusedWe build everything with our users in mind.You have a passion for creating intuitive products that fit customers’ needs Pragmatism: You are able to take on complex challenges and break them down to achieve short feedback loops: to analyze, design, and build modular solutions, deliver MVPs, gather data and feedback and then progress iterativelyCollaboration and communication: The smallest unit we have is a team. You’ll be working with your teammates in a fully remote setup. Good communication skills are a must

Requirements:
