• This gives engineers, SREs, and their agents an up to date picture of their systems
• We want anyone to be able to understand a system and resolve an incident faster, without writing queries or maintaining alert rules, not just the one person who happens to know it best

• Translate research and data to experiences that are easy to digest and break down complexity
• Tailor the experience to different target audiences, covering multiple user perspectives
• Work cross-functionally with peers and leaders in engineering, product management, technical writing, and GTM functions, as well as other members of the Product Design team
• Prioritise for delivering impact while balancing business priorities, customer wishes and technical considerations
• Document user needs and pain points, design directions, UX trade-offs, and detailed designs for specific features and enhancements
• Execute research and contribute to quantitative and qualitative research initiatives with researchers, cross-functional collaborators, customers, and members of the Grafana user community

• Work location: Vast majority of our roles are fully remote, focused on hiring the best talent and allowing you to perform from the comfort of your home. If you fancy a change of scene, we’ll also reimburse you up to $175 a month for a personal co-working space
• Choice of tech: There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to the tech required to do your job. Choose the laptop and accessories you need when you join us, and we’ll refresh them every three years
• Mindfulness: When you join the team, you can sign up for a complimentary subscription to Headspace to take advantage of the benefits of mindfulness and meditation. Our wellbeing resource group also organize sessions run by fellow Grafanistas or external trainers

• Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams across multiple locations and time-zones to iteratively ship and evolve products while keeping the end design vision in mind
• Ability to make design decisions that appropriately balance business goals, product priorities, customer feedback, research insights, and technical considerations
• Experience working in a fully-remote, fast-paced environment where you are expected to share openly, default to transparency, and embrace your autonomy
• 7+ years of relevant design experience working on B2B/enterprise software products, ideally designing tools and services for developers or other highly technical users
• Attention to detail and willingness to learn about a complex, very technical product space
• Experience running qualitative research in complex fields, building empathy with users and humans, their needs and pain points even when you have very little in common with them
• A portfolio of effective designs for complex products delivered in a fast-paced environment
• 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
• Ability to rapidly gain an understanding of a technical domain and associated customer needs and user workflows in order to design effective experiences within that domain
• Domain knowledge or experience related to observability, cloud infrastructure, and/or database monitoring
