Before applying, spend meaningful time using Grafana Cloud's free tier — build a dashboard, run a k6 load test, or explore Loki log queries so you can speak from genuine product experience in your application and interviews
Tailor your resume's language to match Grafana Labs' specific terminology: use 'observability' not just 'monitoring,' reference 'PromQL' or 'LogQL' if applicable, and name-drop relevant CNCF projects you've used or contributed to
Prepare your GitHub profile or portfolio of open-source contributions as a supplementary asset — link it prominently in your Greenhouse application, as this carries significant weight in Grafana Labs' evaluation
