Engineering Manager - Adaptive Telemetry | Canada | Remote at Grafana Labs

**Who this is for** This role is for an experienced engineering leader with a strong background in distributed systems and the "modern observability" stack. You should be comfortable managing a high-performing team in a remote-first, open-source environment. The ideal candidate has experience with large-scale databases or telemetry (metrics, logs, traces) and is a "self-starter" capable of navigating the ambiguity of a rapidly scaling company. **Key highlights** Grafana Labs offers a standout remote-first culture with a focus on autonomy and "psychological safety." Beyond the competitive base salary (CAD 186k - 224k), the package includes equity, bonuses, and 30 days of annual leave. A unique perk is the company’s strong embrace of AI-assisted development, providing a dedicated budget and access to elite models like GPT-4 and Claude Opus to speed up your team's workflow. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have led engineering teams through the full project lifecycle from ideation to post-launch. * Possess deep technical knowledge of distributed systems, scalability, and fault tolerance. * Are comfortable working across North American time zones in a global, asynchronous team. * Are excited about using AI-powered tools to optimize engineering productivity and code quality.
