Job Description:
Grafana Dashboard Developer (Contract)
Location: Remote
Duration: 18-Month Contract
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

Impact
You will directly influence how teams interpret and act on data by:

• Enabling real-time decision-making
• Improving visibility into key operational metrics
• Driving a data-driven culture through intuitive dashboard design
