Location requirements
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.
The Opportunity:
Grafana Labs is looking for a Solution Architect to join our world class Packaged Services team. Our Solutions Architects are responsible for driving customer onboarding and achieving a fast and reliable value realization. Our SAs provide customers with guided training, hands-on implementation support, and targeted business and technical consulting to ensure customers adopt Grafana smoothly and unlock meaningful value quickly.
As a Solutions Architect, you will work with new customers to deliver our packaged services and drive successful adoption of Grafana and related technologies. In this role, you’ll directly implement key components of their observability stack, optimize usage to keep costs low from the start, and help establish a customer Center of Excellence through training and best-practice guidance. When customers fall behind or encounter challenges, you will provide prescriptive technical direction to keep their implementation on track. By leveraging training content, product insights, and prescriptive delivery frameworks, you’ll support customers during the most critical stage of their Grafana journey and ensure they have an exceptional experience with our engagements.
Our Solutions Architects are deeply specialized Professional Services technologists. They bring strong observability fundamentals - understanding why Kubernetes matters, how it integrates with Prometheus, the distinctions between logs and metrics, the “pets vs. cattle” paradigm, and more.
You will thrive in this role if you enjoy staying hands-on at the keyboard, working in the command line, and pairing that technical depth with customer engagement, project management, and structured delivery.
In addition to strong technical expertise, a Solutions Architect must also bring solid project management skills to effectively track and manage the progress of customer initiatives.
As a rapidly expanding program within Grafana Labs, we’re looking for candidates who are scrappy, technical, and self-driven - people who are excited to join a growing company and help shape both our organization and the customer experience!
