Grafana Labs
Senior/Staff Software Engineer - AI / Agentic apps | 100% Remote (US + Canada)
hn · 100% Remote (US + Canada)
Jose is an exceptional match with proven 0→1 founding engineer experience building production AI systems at scale, particularly real-time voice agents and LLM-powered products. His deep full-stack expertise spanning FastAPI, Next.js, LangChain/LangGraph, and infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform) directly aligns with building agentic platforms, and his experience owning architecture and product decisions mirrors the ownership-oriented culture Grafana is seeking. His recent focus on agent systems (LangGraph), observability considerations (evidenced by scale metrics), and building infrastructure for high-reliability systems make him a strong cultural and technical fit.
Hook: You've built real-time AI agents at scale and own full-stack architecture—Grafana's agentic platform and AI Observability products need exactly that founding engineer mindset.
Missing: Grafana product ecosystem familiarity, Observability/monitoring systems domain expertise, Go proficiency (though he has Rust)

Grafana Labs | Senior/Staff Software Engineer - AI / Agentic apps | 100% Remote (US + Canada) | Im the hiring manager - some of the product highlights under the team's scope: - Grafana Assistant: the actually useful AI assistant that helps you do everything in Grafana; it works everywhere - even in OSS! - Investigations: background agents for investigating issues - Grafana Cloud CLI (GCX): CLI covering the entire surface of Grafana Cloud/OSS APIs; plays great with Claude Code/Codex/Cursor and the Assistant - AI Observability: helps you build useful agents and then lets you monitor, eval and improve how they behave - O11y Bench: compare agents' performance across a range of observability/SRE tasks Our pace of development and innovation is RAPID - the AI Observability product went from being the winning hackathon project to public preview in 6 weeks. We are at the cutting edge here - we are experimenting with autonomous (but safe) SREs, an agentic platform, improving agentic dev experience with o11y insights, fine-tuned LLMs for specific tasks, and more. We are looking for highly ambitious engineers who have a great sense of ownership, are all-in on agentic development, and have previously built and operated systems at scale. We are all full-stack and love initiative- we would love to talk with you _especially_ if you built something out in the open!
