Do you enjoy building customer relationships, solving challenges, and learning new technology? If so, come join our Customer Success team at Grafana Labs!

The Customer Success team drives product adoption through a series of impactful engagements that enable our customers to maximize their organizational and technical value with Grafana.  For a customer, the Grafana CSM is a partner who understands their organizational goals and challenges, provides specific recommendations that deliver value, and ultimately helps achieve their mission objectives.

This position aligns primarily to our portfolio of customers within the US federal government, but will include non-federal customers as well. The primary goal of the CSM is to ensure a healthy renewal by driving product adoption. You’ll do this by leveraging data and insights to engage with customers at specific points in their Grafana journey. Our CSMs manage the full life-cycle of our customer’s post-sales journey from onboarding to renewal, including regular cadence check-ins, business reviews, and any upsell opportunities with urgency and aplomb.   

You need to understand the ecosystem of services that our customers use, particularly in the public sector, and work with the customer to ensure success with Grafana at the center.

  • Document and share customer success stories and intervention stories 
  • Conduct virtual and onsite meetings according to our Customer Success framework to drive results, product adoption, and ensure retention
  • Maintain a high level of professionalism, empathy, business, and technical acumen across multiple customers at one time, connecting trends and themes as you go
  • Proactively communicate with customers and internal teams to provide a closed feedback loop on our products and the competitive landscape
  • Enjoy problem solving to understand what your customer is looking to resolve, mapping solutions to the gaps and outlining the value against the proposed solution
  • Drive expansion revenue opportunities based on need and problems uncovered during customer interactions
  • Work with the team to enhance customer documentation and create internal enablement material

Required Skills / Experience:

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
