Job Description
Staff Backend Engineer – Databases
Grafana Labs
• 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. • 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. • 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. • 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. • Tempo is OSS. You will engage the community, review external contributions, and help steer the project in the open.
Job Requirements
- A track record of leading complex, multi-quarter initiatives that spanned design, delivery, and operations, and made the teams around you better.
- Substantial hands-on experience building and operating distributed data systems in production: ingestion pipelines, storage engines, query execution, or similar.
- You write clean, robust, performant software that others can maintain, and you know when to optimize vs. when to ship.
- We write Tempo in Go. Deep experience in other systems languages (Rust, C, C++) translates well.
- You’ve owned production services, carried a pager, reduced toil, and treated SLOs as a product feature, not a chore.
- You break complex problems into short feedback loops: analyze, design, deliver an MVP, learn, iterate.
- You lead through design docs, reviews, and shipped code, not hierarchy. You communicate clearly in a fully remote, asynchronous environment.
Benefits
- 100% Remote, Global Culture
- Scaling Organization
- Transparent Communication
- Innovation-Driven
- Open Source Roots
- Empowered Teams
- Career Growth Pathways
- Approachable Leadership
- Passionate People
- In-Person onboarding
- Balance is Key
