About Grafana Labs
What is Grafana Labs?
Grafana Labs is the company behind Grafana, the world's most popular open-source observability platform, plus the wider stack — Loki (logs), Tempo (traces), Mimir (metrics), k6 (load testing) — and Grafana Cloud. Founded in 2014, it serves thousands of customers and millions of open-source users, and has raised over $900M (through its March 2026 Series E).
Where will I work?
Grafana Labs is 100% fully remote — "we hold ourselves responsible for outcomes, not hours or location" — with ~1,800 people distributed globally and headquarters registered in New York.
What is the Grafana Labs team like?
A large, open-source-rooted engineering organisation with a strong async, remote-first culture.
Work-Life Balance
Every job listing states it: "we operate a global annual leave policy of 30 days per annum" — and the careers page confirms those 30 days come on top of national holidays, parental leave and sick leave. Three of the 30 are company-wide Grafana Shutdown Days so the whole team switches off together.
Perks and Benefits
- 30 days of paid vacation per year, globally, on top of national holidays
- Company-wide shutdown days (everyone off together)
- Paid parental leave
- 100% remote
