About The Position

Grafana Labs is a remote-first, open-source powerhouse. There are more than 20M users of Grafana, the open source visualization tool, around the globe, monitoring everything from beehives to climate change in the Alps. The instantly recognizable dashboards have been spotted everywhere from a NASA launch and Minecraft HQ to Wimbledon and the Tour de France. Grafana Labs also helps more than 3,000 companies -- including Bloomberg, JPMorgan Chase, and eBay -- manage their observability strategies with the Grafana LGTM Stack, which can be run fully managed with Grafana Cloud or self-managed with the Grafana Enterprise Stack, both featuring scalable metrics (Grafana Mimir), logs (Grafana Loki), and traces (Grafana Tempo). We’re scaling fast and staying true to what makes us different: an open-source legacy, a global collaborative culture, and a passion for meaningful work. Our team thrives in an innovation-driven environment where transparency, autonomy, and trust fuel everything we do. You may not meet every requirement, and that’s okay. If this role excites you, we’d love you to raise your hand for what could be a truly career-defining opportunity. This is a fully remote position and we're considering candidates in the US EST. About Product Management: As a Product Manager at Grafana Labs, you'll develop a vision and strategy for your product domain. You will own your product’s roadmap, collateral, and market research, and you will collaborate with Grafana leadership on fine-tuning your product’s goals. You will be the primary advocate and expert in your area, with a strong ability to communicate needs, functionality, and details effectively both to external customers and internal stakeholders. The teams and people you will be interacting with will be 100% remote and globally distributed, so strong and proactive communication is essential. Product Managers are the bridge that connect Engineering, Design, and UX to GTM. You are a facilitator who ensures the free flow of information across these teams and are expected to be technically proficient when representing our products to our customers. The opportunity: As the Product Manager for Performance Testing, you'll own the Grafana Cloud experience for performance testing, built around our k6 open-source project. You'll define how customers write, run, and act on performance tests across the software delivery lifecycle — ensuring Grafana Cloud k6 becomes the default choice for teams replacing legacy tools and adopting shift-left testing. The portfolio spans two surfaces: Grafana Cloud k6 (our commercial cloud product offering execution at scale from 21 global locations) and k6 OSS (the open-source CLI that anchors developer trust and community adoption). As the PM, you'll define how test results integrate with Grafana Cloud's metrics, logs, and traces — turning a failed load test into a specific offending trace in seconds. You'll also evolve performance testing across modalities such as protocol, browser, and mobile". The focus is on delivering an integrated, opinionated cloud experience that customers want to pay for and stay with. You'll also work across R&D to ensure Performance Testing is tightly woven into the broader Grafana Cloud suite — connecting with platforms like the Knowledge Graph and our core Cloud products, like Application Observability and Kubernetes Monitoring – so customers can seamlessly navigate between pre-production validation and production monitoring.
