Our team thrives in an innovation-driven environment where transparency, autonomy, and trust fuel everything we do. You may not meet every requirement, and that’s okay. If this role excites you, we’d love you to raise your hand for what could be a truly career-defining opportunity. The Opportunity: We're looking for a Senior Manager, IT SOX Audit to help stand up Grafana Labs' IT SOX program from the ground up as we scale our controls and governance for our next stage of growth. This is a hands-on, high-visibility role reporting to the Head of Internal Audit, with direct exposure to Finance, IT, Engineering, Security, and senior leadership. This is a player-coach individual contributor role today. You'll architect and execute the IT SOX program yourself and with external consultant support, influencing through expertise rather than direct reports. As the function matures, you'll have the opportunity to broaden your scope into technology and IT audit and to build and lead a team over time. Success here isn't measured by control test completion rates or a tally of audit projects. It's measured by whether Grafana is more risk-intelligent, better controlled, and able to continue to scale because of your work. This is ideal for someone who enjoys building from scratch, partnering closely with stakeholders, and leveraging modern tools, including AI, to deliver efficient, high-impact assurance. What You'll Be Doing: Partner with the Head of Internal Audit to build and operate Grafana's IT SOX program from the ground up: scoping, risk assessment, control design, and testing across IT general controls (ITGCs) and key application controls tied to financial reporting. Design and execute all phases of IT SOX activity: walkthroughs, design and operating effectiveness testing, documentation, status tracking, deficiency identification, and remediation validation. Assess ITGCs and application controls across key financial systems and Grafana's cloud/SaaS environment (e.g., NetSuite, Salesforce, Workday]). Own the IT SOX documentation library in partnership with the Business Process / Finance SOX lead (narratives, flowcharts, and IT risk-and-control matrices (RCMs), and keep it audit-ready at all times. Drive deficiency management conversations with control owners, advocating for automation-first, scalable remediation over manual, siloed patches. Own the relationship with external IT auditors, ensuring testing methodologies and documentation meet PCAOB standards and align with external auditor expectations to create the foundation for a future reliance strategy. Leverage AI and automation to enhance scoping, testing, and continuous monitoring, building capabilities and operationalizing insights, not just running checklists. Evaluate the IT control impact of new systems, tools, operations, and policies as Grafana scales. Manage co-source partner resources while maintaining quality and driving consistency across the program. Report on IT SOX status, risks, deficiencies, and remediation to the Head of Internal Audit and senior leadership. Over time, help extend the function beyond SOX into broader technology and IT audit, and build, mentor, and scale a team as the organization grows. What Makes You a Great Fit: 10+ years of progressive experience in IT SOX compliance, IT audit, or IT risk advisory in Big 4 (or similar) and/or an in-house audit, compliance, or risk management function. Proven hands-on expertise in COSO, SOX 404, ITGCs, ITACs, and PCAOB audit standards. Experience standing up, scaling, or transforming an IT SOX program, ideally in a pre-IPO or newly public, high-growth SaaS environment. Experience auditing cloud-native, SaaS environments and modern ERPs and business applications (e.g., NetSuite, Salesforce, Workday). Track record of implementing or optimizing AI and automated compliance and audit capabilities. Fluency in key frameworks such as COSO, COBIT, NIST CSF, and ISO 27001. Experience with GRC / audit tools, or building home-grown solutions. Strong project management and organizational skills with the ability to oversee complex programs and prioritize ruthlessly. Proven ability to inform and influence senior management stakeholders. You can influence without authority and make technical risk clear, urgent, and actionable. CISA, CPA, CIA, or CISSP strongly preferred. High integrity, ownership, curiosity, and a continuous-improvement mindset. Bonus Points For: A blend of both Big 4 (or similar) and in-house audit, compliance, or risk management leadership experience. Experience in a pre-IPO and/or newly public, high-growth, consumption/usage-based SaaS technology company. Additional certifications that signal breadth and depth: CPA, CISM, CRISC, or CGEIT. ISACA AAIA (Advanced in AI Audit), or a demonstrated track record of investing in AI governance and audit innovation. Experience broadening an audit function beyond SOX into technology, operational, or advisory assurance. Experience working in globally distributed organizations.

This is a remote opportunity and we are looking for candidates from the U.S. or Canada. Residents of Quebec are not eligible for this role. At Grafana Labs, we build observability tools that help users understand, respond to, and improve their systems – regardless of scale, complexity, or tech stack. We recently started a skunkworks initiative with a mission to bring observability to the rest of the business. Our goal is to make Grafana the single best place where humans and AI agents understand and act on real-time data from across the enterprise. As part of this initiative, we are building an AI-native data intelligence system that gives agents reliable, governed access to enterprise context. This system helps agents retrieve the right data, metadata, definitions, lineage, quality signals, and institutional knowledge without every agent builder having to maintain their own brittle context files. The principle is simple: the context system retrieves, agents decide, and data teams maintain the intelligence. The new team is a mix of seasoned Grafanistas and new hires. We operate with a high degree of autonomy and ownership, both as individuals and as a team. Engineers are empowered to make decisions, move quickly, and validate ideas early – while being supported by a deeply collaborative culture that values curiosity, feedback, and cross-functional partnership. We’re looking for a Staff-level Backend Engineer to help build the first production services for this context layer management system. You will design and ship the core backend architecture that powers ingestion, context storage, retrieval APIs, and agent-facing integrations. This is an early-stage role on a high-autonomy team, so you should be comfortable working through ambiguity, making pragmatic architectural decisions, and building systems that can evolve from internal dogfooding to production-grade SaaS. As the team matures, there’s a broad opportunity to expand or redefine this role based on impact and initiative. Key responsibilities: Build the core backend services: Design, implement, test, and operate the first services for context ingestion, context indexing, retrieval orchestration, API access, source configuration, and system administration. Create a scalable SaaS foundation: Help define and build the architecture for a multi-tenant service, including tenant isolation, usage tracking, quotas, audit logs, background jobs, and reliable service boundaries. Power agent-facing retrieval workflows: Build APIs and service interfaces that allow AI agents, MCP tools, CLIs, and internal applications to retrieve relevant context, provenance, confidence signals, and warnings. Work across product and infrastructure: Partner with the team to make practical tradeoffs between fast experimentation and long-term reliability, especially as the project moves from prototype to production. Operate what you build: Instrument services with metrics, logs, traces, alerts, and dashboards. Use observability tools to understand system behavior and improve reliability. Contribute to technical direction: Help shape the architecture, service boundaries, storage choices, API contracts, deployment patterns, and engineering practices for a new product area. Effective communication: You’ll be working in a highly dynamic and collaborative environment, so we need someone who can communicate effectively and contribute across teams. Ownership and impact: Take full ownership of the AI solutions you develop, ensuring they are not only innovative but also scalable, maintainable, and aligned with real user workflows. What we're looking for: Strong engineering skills: Solid experience building production-grade, user-facing software systems. You’re a self-starter, capable of tackling complex engineering problems and making UI design decisions with minimal supervision. AI experience with a practical mindset: You’re familiar with AI technologies and frameworks, and you focus on delivering high-quality solutions that work in the real world, not just in theory. Quick iteration and experimentation: You’re comfortable releasing prototypes, collecting feedback, and iterating with a pragmatic mindset. Proven initiative: You take ownership and drive projects forward, pushing boundaries to find the most impactful solutions. You can deal with ambiguity and are able to define scope where things are loosely defined. Collaborative attitude: You communicate effectively with your peers. You’re open to feedback, and you bring a solutions-oriented mindset to the table. Requirements: Experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, and building applications powered by GenAI. Proven track record of delivering software that made it into production and is actively used by users. Exposure to working in cloud-native environments (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure). Experience using observability tools to understand and troubleshoot system behavior. Nice to have: Experience building or working with agent frameworks or multi‑agent workflows. Experience as a data analyst or work with data platforms (e.g., Looker, Tableau, PowerBI, Snowflake, DataBricks) Experience building tools for data engineering.

Morgan, CapitalG, and Lead Edge Capital. We’re scaling fast and staying true to what makes us different: an open-source legacy, a global collaborative culture, and a passion for meaningful work. Our team thrives in an innovation-driven environment where transparency, autonomy, and trust fuel everything we do. You may not meet every requirement, and that’s okay. If this role excites you, we’d love you to raise your hand for what could be a truly career-defining opportunity. This is a remote opportunity and we would be interested in applicants located in USA time zones (EST + CST only at this time). Staff Backend Engineer - Application Core Services, Stacks The Opportunity: Application Core Services (AppCore) is a group within Platform, in the Foundations department. Foundations produces the Internal Engineering Platform (IEP) and partners closely with our Cloud, Enterprise, and Grafana teams. Our team develops the essential systems driving Grafanas business operations. We utilize the grafana.com platform to engineer bespoke integrations and solutions that unify the diverse technical ecosystem of a modern software enterprise. The team owns important domain areas that help keep both our customer workflows and internal business processes running smoothly. AppCore is made up of multiple squads, each focused on one or more of these domains. Our work includes maintaining the billing engine responsible for customer usage calculation, automating provisioning after a customer signs a contract, integrating with cloud marketplaces such as AWS, Azure, and GCP, and building and maintaining the user portal our customers rely on to manage their accounts. This is a team working at the intersection of product, platform, and business operations. The systems we build are critical to how Grafana scales. We are looking for engineers who enjoy solving complex workflow and systems problems, improving reliability and developer experience, and building software that directly supports both customers and internal stakeholders. As a company we are remote-first and global, we embrace people of different experiences and backgrounds to build diverse teams where every person brings a unique perspective to the software. Engineers at Grafana also have the opportunity to contribute to Open Source communities and collaborate across teams beyond their immediate scope. What You’ll Be Doing: The AppCore Stacks squad owns the systems that create, configure, reconcile, migrate, and operate Grafana Cloud stacks at scale. A stack is the customer-facing Grafana Cloud environment that connects an organization to Grafana and the backend services it uses, including Mimir, Loki, Tempo, plugins, dashboards, data sources, and stack-level configuration. Our work sits at the intersection of product, platform, and operations. We build the control-plane services and workflows that keep stack state aligned across grafana.com, Stack State Service (SSS), Hosted Grafana, cloud regions, and the underlying Grafana Cloud infrastructure. When this domain works well, customers get reliable stack creation, safe configuration rollout, predictable migrations, and fewer manual operational interventions. • Design, build, and operate reconciliation systems, including the SSS backend, to track desired stack state, detect and repair drift across stack templates, grafana.com state, Hosted Grafana, and actual customer stack configuration • Collaborate across SSS, grafana.com, and deployment configurations to ensure stack lifecycle workflows remain reliable, observable, and resilient • Improve operational efficiency by reducing deployment complexity (e.g., aiming for single PR regional SSS deployment) and contributing to the Stack Config Reconciliation project • Manage rollout mechanisms for provisioned plugins, dashboards, data sources, Grafana versions, release channels, and stack-level configuration • Support new region and cluster rollouts, including the operational paths required to bring stacks online safely in new Grafana Cloud regions • Improve incident response and recovery paths for stack misalignment, reconciliation failures, plugin rollout issues, and Hosted Grafana integration failures • Partner with Product, Hosted Grafana, Infrastructure, Support, and adjacent AppCore squads on customer-impacting stack lifecycle work • Contribute to roadmap planning, technical design, OnCall improvements, and long-term simplification of stack operations • You will help own the production behavior of the systems you build. That includes improving runbooks, dashboards, alerts, reconciliation safety, rollout controls, and recovery procedures. You should be comfortable debugging across service boundaries and making careful changes in systems that affect customer stacks Of course, there is an on-call component to this role and one that we take seriously. As a company, we hire globally (remote-first) to ensure our on-call remains healthy and aligned to approximately 12 daylight hours per day. You will work closely with counterparts in other regions to provide balanced coverage and shared ownership. 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 You a Great Fit: At Grafana, we actively embrace AI-assisted and agentic development practices, integrating these technologies into both our engineering workflows and the systems we deliver. We encourage our engineers to thoughtfully leverage AI tools to enhance every stage of the lifecycle, from design and implementation to testing, documentation, and operations. We also look for strategic opportunities to embed agentic capabilities within our services to eliminate toil, bolster reliability, and ensure that complex customer workflows remain resilient and safe. We are seeking a Staff Backend Engineer who thrives on building production systems where correctness, scalability, and operational clarity are paramount. As a remote-first organization, you should be comfortable collaborating asynchronously across time zones and taking full ownership of the critical systems powering Grafana Cloud. Our team is small and operates with a high degree of independence; you will be expected to lead major projects, coordinate across service boundaries, and help define the technical direction for our domain. You will be particularly successful in this role if you enjoy solving challenges related to stateful systems, eventual consistency, and reconciliation loops. We value engineers who can take ambiguous lifecycle requirements and transform them into explicit, modular solutions. You should be adept at breaking down complex systems work into safe, iterative increments while clearly communicating technical tradeoffs to both internal stakeholders and adjacent product teams. Some things you might be expected to do could include: • Writing efficient, readable, and easy to maintain code • Designing new microservices or systems • Collaborating with teammates and other departments to reach consensus on proposed solutions • Coordinating with product and UX when needed • Responding to customer requests and feedback • When ready, participating in our follow-the-sun OnCall rotation • Participating in team decisions, such as roadmap planning and prioritization Requirements: • You have at least 1 year of fully remote work experience • You have worked on a big SaaS platform and dealt with common distributed systems problems (e.g. scalability, multi-tenancy, data isolation, HA, …) • Have professional experience with Golang and be willing to work across both backend service and application code • Care deeply about developer and user experience and the quality of the products that you work on • Have some experience with delivering projects from gathering requirements, and brainstorming ideas to shipping a product to the customer’s hands in a self-driven way • You write clean, robust, well-tested software that other engineers can understand, operate, and maintain • Have experience with mentoring junior engineers in a collaborative but asynchronous environment • 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 • You are willing to work across teams. Your work has to be aligned with the needs of other squads and external stakeholders. You make your plans transparent, bring stakeholders on board, and are open to feedback and suggestions • Strong Kubernetes experience in AWS, GCP, or Azure, and familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tooling (Helm, Terraform, Jsonnet, etc.) • Experience participating in blameless incident response and writing high-quality post-incident reviews Bonus Points For: • Experience with TypeScript/Node.js • Experience with Kubernetes control-plane patterns, operators, reconcilers, or desired-state systems • Experience with Jsonnet/Tanka, Terraform, Flux, Argo, or similar deployment/configuration tooling • Experience working on SaaS provisioning, tenancy, regional expansion, plugin rollout, or customer lifecycle systems • Experience with incident response involving configuration drift, partial failure, or cross-service state mismatch Compensation & Rewards: In the United States, the Base compensation range for this role is USD 174,986 - USD 209,983.

Over the next year, you will help us: • Make Grafana Cloud Traces “just work” for customers by eliminating rough edges, confusing limits, and hidden failure modes. • Achieve operational excellence at scale as we grow from close to 50 cells today into triple digits this year, with autoscaling, parameterized rollouts, and aggressive toil reduction. • Evolve Tempo into a platform enabler: higher-density APIs, trace aggregation, TraceQL metrics math, and machine/LLM-friendly interfaces that downstream products and agents can build on. • Push performance further: faster query latency at hundreds of MB/s ingestion and performant 30-day query ranges to match competitors. • Prepare Tempo for an agent-driven world: larger, burstier, higher-cardinality workloads, and new categories of AI-powered workflows, such as assistant-driven triage and “why is this slow?”- style investigations. What You’ll Be Doing: As a Staff Engineer on Tempo, you will set technical direction on the hardest problems in our roadmap and raise the bar across the team. • Lead multi-quarter technical initiatives from problem framing through rollout, e.g., trace aggregation APIs, Limitless Tempo, autoscaling cells and customer limits, or query engine improvements. • Own the architecture of core Tempo components: ingestion, storage, query, and metrics generation. Drive design reviews, make sharp trade-offs on performance, cost, and complexity, and document the “why” for the team. • Design APIs for humans and agents. Shape the next generation of Tempo’s interfaces (structured, deterministic, discoverable) so that Act 3 products, LLM-driven assistants, and external integrators can build on Tempo reliably. • Drive operational excellence. Own outcomes against concrete SLOs (P99 write latency, incident recurrence, TCO per ingested GB) and push the team toward Zero Ops through automation, parameterized rollouts, and actionable alerts. • Partner with Product and sibling teams. Work closely with PMs and with App Observability, Asserts, Drilldown, and Grafana Assistant teams to understand how Tempo gets consumed and to ship what unblocks them. • Mentor engineers. Raise the engineering bar through code review, design feedback, pairing on hard problems, and writing that leaves the team smarter than you found it. • Participate in on-call for the services you help build, and be a force multiplier in incident response and post-incident learning. • Contribute to open source. Tempo is OSS. You will engage the community, review external contributions, and help steer the project in the open. 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). Example problems you could work on These are the kinds of projects landing in 2026. Any one of them is a Staff-sized problem: • Trace aggregation and higher-density APIs: extend TraceQL metrics, design LLM-friendly response types, and make Tempo a first-class data source for Grafana’s AI assistant. • Autoscaling end to end: customer limits and Tempo cells, with hysteresis, predictive scaling for spikes, and safe scale-down. • Agent-scale ingestion and query: guardrails for bursty, high-cardinality, agent-generated workloads. • Query performance: new data formats, smarter query pipelines, targeted optimizations for common Drilldown and Traces workflows, and 30-day query ranges. • Rollouts and multi-cell operations: parameterized rollouts, push-button deploys, and the tooling to grow safely into triple-digit cell counts without a proportional increase in alert noise. • Limits and self-service: drive customer-facing configuration and observability so escalations trend toward zero. What Makes You a Great Fit: • Technical leadership. A track record of leading complex, multi-quarter initiatives that spanned design, delivery, and operations, and made the teams around you better. • Deep systems experience. Substantial hands-on experience building and operating distributed data systems in production: ingestion pipelines, storage engines, query execution, or similar. • Strong software craftsmanship. You write clean, robust, performant software that others can maintain, and you know when to optimize vs. when to ship. • Strong Go, or a path to it. We write Tempo in Go. Deep experience in other systems languages (Rust, C, C++) translates well. • Operational mindset. You’ve owned production services, carried a pager, reduced toil, and treated SLOs as a product feature, not a chore. • Customer focus and pragmatism. You break complex problems into short feedback loops: analyze, design, deliver an MVP, learn, iterate. • Leadership through writing and collaboration. You lead through design docs, reviews, and shipped code, not hierarchy. You communicate clearly in a fully remote, asynchronous environment. Bonus Points For: • Experience with tracing, OpenTelemetry, or large-scale observability systems. • Experience designing query languages, SQL/TraceQL-like engines, or APIs intended to be consumed programmatically (by services or agents). • Experience with columnar storage formats (e.g., Parquet) or purpose-built on-disk formats for analytical workloads. • Experience operating multi-tenant, multi-cell SaaS infrastructure at scale on Kubernetes. • Experience building for AI/LLM consumers: structured APIs, metadata/discovery endpoints, deterministic outputs, evaluation harnesses. • Open-source contribution or maintainership, and comfort engaging a community in the open. • Experience as an on-call user of Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, or Tempo in a previous role (or on a homelab). • Experience in a fully remote, globally distributed team.
