Senior Frontend Engineer - Grafana Data Pro| Ireland

Grafana Labs is a remote-first, open-source powerhouse. There are more than 20M users of Grafana, the open source visualization tool, around the globe, monitoring everything from beehives to climate change in the Alps. The instantly recognizable dashboards have been spotted everywhere from a NASA launch and Minecraft HQ to Wimbledon and the Tour de France. Grafana Labs also helps more than 3,000 companies -- including Bloomberg, JPMorgan Chase, and eBay -- manage their observability strategies with the Grafana LGTM Stack, which can be run fully managed with Grafana Cloud or self-managed with the Grafana Enterprise Stack, both featuring scalable metrics (Grafana Mimir), logs (Grafana Loki), and traces (Grafana Tempo). 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 based in Spain, Sweden, Germany, the UK or Ireland at this time. The Opportunity The Grafana Frontend group is responsible for the end to end user experience on Grafana the observability product and Grafana the platform used by many engineers to build plugins. Our squads are responsible for dashboards, data visualisation and manipulation, navigation across the ecosystem, sharing experience, content search,organisation and more. DataPro The DataPro squad develops tools that empower users to express their data. We serve as the bridge between data producers (Data Sources) and consumers (Data Visualizations), enhancing the capabilities of data sources in line with our "big tent" philosophy. What we do: Query experience & Data manipulation: We build and evolve the query experience as well as the engine and components behind the Grafana data transformations experience, which primarily includes Transformations and SQL Expressions.Community Engagement: we listen to the open-source community, we retrieve contributions, and turn feedback into real improvements. • Operational Excellence: we own the performance, reliability, and maintainability of a system that runs at global scale. We value readability, maintainability and clarity of our code. How we work: • No blame: We focus on learning and improving ourselves and our product. • Better done than perfect: We iterate quickly and deliver value continuously. • User-first: We design for real users solving real problems and we make data-driven decisions. • Mentorship & Innovation: we grow together through knowledge sharing, mentorship, internal hackathons, and constant learning. What You'll Be Doing As a Senior Software Engineer at Grafana Labs, you will: • Take an active role in influencing our roadmap and your own career objectives • Drive projects from initial idea all the way to operations once it is in the hands of customers • Be a part of your team's on-call rotations and take ownership of the services you're running • Mentor and support other team members, participate in design discussions and collaborate with the team • Learn new skills by gaining a deeper understanding of our cloud product and our customers and getting to know the codebase • Contributing to and reviewing design documents for upcoming features 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 a Great Fit • Strong engineering skills: Solid experience building production software systems. You're a self-starter, capable of tackling complex engineering problems with minimal supervision. You treat writing tests as a core part of the development process, not an afterthought. You have experience with TypeScript and React, Jest and Playwright. • Complex operational thinking: Can take on complex challenges and break them down into tight feedback loops: analyze, design, ship an MVP, gather data, then iterate. • Proven initiative and pragmatism: You take ownership and drive projects forward, pushing boundaries to find the most impactful solutions. You can deal with ambiguity and define scope, breaking complex challenges down to achieve short feedback loops. • Collaborative attitude: You communicate effectively with peers, product managers, and desig
