This is a remote opportunity and we would be interested in applicants from European time zones only at this time.

Plugins are core to Grafana's Big Tent Philosophy - the more sources of data and functionality that we support, the more we can achieve our goal of democratizing metrics. As such, plugins are a valuable and necessary part of our community. We are hoping our plugin catalog will continue to grow through our community, our own internal development, and our plugin partnerships.

The Partner Plugins squad is part of a newly formed group (OSS Plugin Partnerships) within the Grafana division. Our remit and focus is specifically on OSS data source plugins with external partnerships.

A selection of data source plugins we own:

A selection of projects we're currently working on & planning for:

More data source plugins with partner collaboration
Enhancements to existing plugins to vastly improve user experience and integration
Technical and feature consistency across our plugins to match our plugin maturity framework
Continuous improvements to support the Plugin Platform developer experience

A typical "day in the life" could include:

Building full stack open source Grafana plugins to integrate metrics from partners into Grafana
Building relationships with major cloud providers and ISVs (Independent Software Vendors) to understand how we can make Grafana better
Collaboration with partners and the community to determine feature scope and prioritization
Adding new functionality to our plugin SDKs
Innovating our plugin eco-system to allow for enhanced capabilities
Streamlining processes between the OSS community, engineering, product and business across the organization
Working closely with the rest of the Grafana Division; including the Plugins Platform, UX, and Observability squads
Regularly sharing ideas and knowledge across a vast array of technical ideologies and mindsets

What we are looking for:

You are comfortable working in a remote-first company; with our squad being formed of engineers across both EU and NASA timezones, communication is key. For us, working together means being collaborative, friendly, kind, and respectful. We operate by consensus, you can contribute to a discussion but then commit to the team decision.
You are eager to learn and grow. Our squad is formed in a newly defined area in the organization so there is a lot of room for growth and development, and the team has quite a lot of knowledge to share for those who are willing to learn.
You enjoy working on complex solutions ?" Grafana is a highly technological solution and has avid followers who rely on it every day and care deeply about their workflows.
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. At the same time, you know how to recognize ideas and solutions that bring the biggest value to them and have the biggest impact on their experience.
You approach development holistically. The team owns the full life cycle of our code; from writing design docs, to looking at community feedback, and automated testing. We appreciate engineers who enjoy looking at the big picture, and also notice the details of the brush strokes.

You'll have experience in one of the following:

React and Typescript
