Job Description

Join Grafana, a leading observability platform, as a Staff Technical Writer. In this role, you will create documentation and learning content to help users adopt and master Grafana's products. You will collaborate with engineers, product managers, and the writing team, using AI-assisted workflows and tools throughout the content lifecycle. This is a fully remote position with a range of benefits, including 30 days of paid vacation, healthcare coverage, retirement planning, and professional development opportunities.

  • Plan, research, write, and maintain documentation and learning content that supports adoption and long-term product mastery.
  • Use AI tools and workflows to work faster and at a higher quality: drafting, structuring, technical validation, consistency checks, and keeping content current.
  • Partner with engineers, PMs, and other stakeholders to understand product requirements, interview subject matter experts, and turn complex technical detail into clear, accurate content.
  • Experience writing or documenting enterprise or developer-facing software, with a portfolio or writing samples that show technical depth
  • Experience working with docs-as-code: command-line Git, GitHub (pull requests and reviews), Markdown, and common IDEs
  • Experience working remotely and asynchronously on a distributed team
  • Comfort working in technical environments. You can set up, run, and troubleshoot software yourself to verify what you write (for example, command line, containers, or Kubernetes, or a willingness to learn quickly)
  • Experience collaborating with engineers and product managers to get accurate technical information
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools and models in your writing workflow (such as LLM assistants, agentic coding tools, or custom prompts and skills), and the ability to explain how you evaluate and verify their output
  • 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
  • Ownership. You manage multiple projects and work well both independently and collaboratively
  • Clarity. You write concisely and plainly for readers of all experience levels
  • Technical credibility. You care about accuracy, you learn new technical domains quickly, and you ask questions until you understand them
  • Curiosity about AI as a craft. You treat AI workflows as a professional skill. You experiment, share what works, and know where AI helps and where it doesn’t
  • Strong judgment and editing skills. You can tell good content from plausible-sounding content, and you hold the line on quality
  • Bonus: Experience with observability, monitoring, or cloud-native tooling, or contributing to open source documentation
