About the role
- Build delightful interactive learning inside Grafana
- Ship features that make learning experiences feel obvious, smooth, and scalable.
- Improve the end-to-end learner experience—from onboarding to completion.
- Enable contribution and authoring (especially for non-engineers): create workflows and product features that let many contributors safely create, iterate on, and improve learning content.
- Support private guides and experiences
- Make completion tracking that actually matters
- Build progress and completion tracking that’s trustworthy, motivating, and useful.
- Instrument learning flows so we can understand what’s working, what’s failing, and where learners get stuck.
- Treat observability as a product principle
- Build fast feedback loops (metrics/logs/traces + user journey visibility) so issues stay shallow.
- Make it easy to understand what’s happening in production and in real user experiences.
- Ship fast with an AI-driven development workflow
- Work daily with tools like Claude Code or Cursor in an agent-based workflow.
- Apply strong engineering judgment—scoping, iterating, verifying, and testing—so speed doesn’t compromise quality.
Requirements
- AI harness experience (agentic development)
- You’ve used tools like Claude Code or Cursor in real development work (daily or close to it).
- You can describe your workflow (scoping → iterate → validate → test) and how you manage risks like security and correctness.
- Serious software engineering fundamentals
- You can ship production-grade changes and explain tradeoffs.
- You care about architecture, maintainability, correctness, and raising the quality bar (not “vibe coding” alone).
- Grafana context
- You’ve used Grafana in real environments—dashboards, troubleshooting, on-call, or monitoring workflows.
- You understand observability practices and how Grafana fits into them.
