Senior Software Engineer, Grafana Plugin Platform

We're looking for amazing individuals to help us grow and shape the future of the Grafana plugin ecosystem. The Plugins Platform Team is dedicated to making Grafana plugins easy to build and maintain. Our main focus is tooling, platform and great documentation for Plugins in the Grafana Ecosystem. We also ensure that our community voice is heard and that we help our teams track and grow their engagement with our broader Grafana community.

A typical day might involve adding new functionality to our Go SDK, talking to our developers about improvements necessary in our platform or tooling or collaborating with our tech writers about adding new documentation to our developer portal.

This role would be a good fit for you if:

• You are comfortable working in a remote-first company and understand the importance of communication.
• You enjoy learning, growing, and supporting others to do the same.
• You have solid experience as a Senior Software Engineer with solid experience working with Go.
• You enjoy working as a team. For us, working together means being collaborative, friendly, kind, and respectful.
• You 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.
• You can drive your work independently, but you also know when to reach out for help.
• You care deeply about developer and user experience and the quality of the products that you work on.
• You want to participate in on-call rotations for our area of responsibility and drive operational improvements.
• You enjoy being part of the community. Community is part of our core, and interacting with the community is a day-to-day thing for us.
• You are able to communicate the design decisions clearly in written and spoken English.

Nice to have:

• Experience writing Grafana plugins or working in another plugin development ecosystem
• Experience working with Apache Arrow or similar columnar data serialization libraries
• Experience working with data integration systems
• Experience operating and scaling highly available API services in different cloud providers (GCloud, AWS, etc.)
