Role Overview
We are seeking a
highly skilled Grafana Dashboard Developer to design and deliver
world-class, real-time data visualization experiences.
This role is focused on transforming complex data into intuitive dashboards that drive decision-making at scale. The ideal candidate brings
deep, hands-on Grafana expertise and can rapidly move from
user story → production-ready dashboard while maintaining high standards for performance, usability, and storytelling.
Key Responsibilities- Design and develop advanced Grafana dashboards that translate complex datasets into clear, actionable insights
- Build real-time dashboards integrating multiple data sources (Prometheus, Azure Monitor, Kusto, etc.)
- Rapidly prototype and iterate dashboards based on evolving requirements
- Translate user stories into production-grade visualizations
- Optimize dashboards for performance, scalability, and usability
- Partner with engineering and business stakeholders to define requirements and deliver outcomes
- Establish and follow best practices for dashboard design, structure, and maintainability
Required Qualifications- 2–5 years of hands-on Grafana experience (mandatory)
- Proven experience building complex, multi-panel dashboards in production environments
- Strong expertise in data visualization and storytelling with data
- Experience working with real-time data and multiple data sources
- Proficiency with query languages (KQL, PromQL, SQL, or similar)
- Demonstrated experience delivering dashboards end-to-end from requirements → deployment
- Strong communication skills working across technical and business teams
Preferred Qualifications- Experience with Azure Managed Grafana or cloud-based observability platforms
- Familiarity with SLI/SLO dashboards, telemetry, and monitoring systems
- Experience with CI/CD or dashboards-as-code frameworks
What Sets This Role Apart- This is not a basic dashboard role
- We are looking for candidates who:
- Have deep Grafana expertise (not AI-only experience)
- Can design dashboards that tell a story, not just display data
- Operate with speed, ownership, and craftsmanship
- Use AI as an accelerator, not a substitute for technical skill
