- Advocate for standards and best practices.
- Stay current with Grafana Labs, observability, and related technologies.
- Support Sales, Product Management, Engineering, Support, and Professional Services teams with technical expertise.
- Identify recurring issues, monitor support needs, and advocate for product improvements.
- Manage timelines, unblock teams, and accelerate solution delivery.
Requirements
- Located in Spain.
- 5+ years of experience working on deployment teams and using project management techniques.
- Direct experience with observability.
- Experience using and deploying observability stacks covering visualization, alerting, metrics, logs, and traces.
- Preferably experience with Grafana, Prometheus, Cortex, Enterprise Metrics, Loki, Enterprise Logs, Jaeger, and/or Tempo.
- Proven track record of successfully delivering customer projects, preferably enterprise observability implementations for large customers.
- Excellent communication skills for working with customers, partners, and internal teams.

- Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, and Azure.
- Ability to work with complex business and technology requirements and translate them into effective technical solutions.
- Ability to learn new skills and technologies and work independently.
Benefits
- Base compensation range of EUR 94,000–112,830 in Spain.
- Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
- 100% remote work and a global culture.
- Career growth opportunities.
