Developer Programs Associate | Netherlands | Remote

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.

Community and open source are at the heart of everything we do at Grafana Labs. As a Developer Community Programs Associate, you’ll take a hands-on role in supporting and growing our open source and developer communities, with a focus on Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

The Opportunity:

You’ll help implement programs that empower contributors, foster connections within the community, and guide internal teams on how to engage effectively. This is an execution-focused role for someone who enjoys organizing meetups, managing swag and recognition, supporting contributors, and helping evaluate local conference sponsorships. You’ll also own a few scoped projects each quarter, with the opportunity to lead one larger program annually.

We’re looking for someone who’s a strong communicator, empathetic, resilient, and highly organized—a natural collaborator and problem solver.

• Organize and support community meetups across EMEA, including collaboration with local community organizers

• Evaluate and execute regional conference sponsorships, including logistics and community presence

• Represent Grafana Labs in online and in-person settings, with travel up to 30%

• Partner with affinity communities and explore collaboration opportunities

• Partner with internal teams to enable and inspire their involvement in community initiatives

• Respond to and manage incoming community requests and opportunities

• Provide insights to the broader team by monitoring community health and identifying emerging needs

• Manage swag logistics and recognition efforts for community contributors.

What makes you a great fit:

• 2+ years of experience supporting developer communities at global, regional, or local levels

• 2+ years of experience organizing community events such as meetups and conferences

• Compassionate relationship-building skills, especially across diverse communities

• Experience leading projects and improving programs through thoughtful, creative approaches

• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines

• Analytical thinking and attention to detail when executing community-facing programs

• A proactive, solution-oriented mindset and ability to work independently in a distributed team

• Comfortability using tools like Common Room, Slack, and Monday.com (or equivalents) to track engagement.

• Familiarity with observability and/or Grafana Labs technologies

• Proficiency in additional language(s)
