Front End Engineer, Grafana Oncall - (Remote, EMEA)

This is a remote opportunity and we would be interested in applications from EMEA only

What we do

The Grafana OnCall squad operates at the core of the Grafana open-source project (link) , and our mission is to provide the best journey for our users and their data. We’re a frontend-focused team and we work closely with Product and UX to define our goals and build our solutions.

Our domain is pretty large, so to get an idea of the kind of work we do, here are some of the projects we work on:

• New frontend-heavy features for OnCall like the on-call schedule editor (link).
• We drive big cross-team initiatives like improving the accessibility of Grafana or globalization
• Improve the navigation and the information architecture of Grafana
• Implement new ways of sharing Grafana with our library panels feature

We embrace experimentation, and lean principles, and encourage everyone to share their ideas and perspectives.

What we are looking for

• You are comfortable working in a remote-first company and understand the importance of communication 
• You enjoy learning, growing, and supporting others to do the same. 
• You have solid experience as a Software Engineer and feel comfortable working with React, Typescript, and ideally RxJS.
• You know how to transform ideas into working code – you are able to design a solution, get feedback, and write a prototype by yourself.
• You enjoy working on complex solutions – Grafana is a highly technological solution and has avid followers who rely on it every day and care deeply about their workflows.
• You care and value code maintainability, readability, and testing.
• You enjoy working as a team. For us, working together means being collaborative, friendly, kind, and respectful.
• You enjoy being part of the community. Community is part of our core, and interacting with the community is a day-to-day thing for us. You are able to communicate the design decisions clearly in written and spoken English.
• You understand the implications of technical decisions, and how they’ll affect the codebase and the team.

What we use

• We work with React as our framework, Typescript and Mobx
• CSS modules and CSS custom properties are our choices when it comes to styling
• We use Prettier, Eslint, and Stylelint to automate code styling
• We use Plop ("micro-generator framework.")  for scaffolding
• Webpack is our current bundler
