Grafana Labs: Staff Product Marketing Manager | Germany | Remote

Headquarters: Germany (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.

The Opportunity:

We are looking for an experienced product marketer to join as a key member of the Grafana Labs Product Marketing team. In this role, you will be responsible for creating Go-To-Market programs that effectively position the value of Grafana Labs and its products to solve the needs of target customers. You will show how our products and solutions — as well as our open source strategy — help prospects and customers achieve their goals. 

As a Staff Product Marketing Manager, you will be in charge of the messaging and positioning across key personas and product areas. You’ll work closely with both product management and enablement to help buyers buy (and sellers sell) our value.

Product Marketing lives within the Product org rather than the Marketing org at Grafana Labs, and we are thinking differently about product marketing. Rather than purely executing launches or campaigns, we want PMMs to teach Product Managers and Engineers in our org how to think about growth and demand, and to codify product marketing knowledge in tools and processes that anyone in the organization can use.

Grafana Labs is a fast-paced and growing organization. As such, this role requires both strategic and planning skills as well as hands-on tactical execution (blogs, webinar outlines, video scripts, etc).

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Actively partner with and teach Product Managers to define product value, messaging, and go-to-market strategy, from competitive positioning to sales enablement collateral.
  • Partner with product management, engineering and various go-to-market functions to create materials that help customers evaluate and adopt our products: reference architectures, implementation guides, detailed product information.
  • Own and manage the launch of new products/features relevant to target buyers
  • Conduct internal and customer research to understand pain points, competition and opportunities
  • Teach go-to-market and sales teams how to gain value from our products: clearly define the capabilities of our products and the value they provide, deliver training and enablement, ensure customer facing teams are able to effectively engage with customers, partners, and prospects.
  • Own customer lifecycle campaigns (competitive positioning, retention, upsell/cross-sell) to strategically shape marketing programs and drive growth across the entire customer journey.

What Makes You a Great Fit:

  • 6+ years of relevant experience (product marketing, solutions marketing, product management)
  • Experience with marketing and selling to a technical audience
  • A passion for open source, cloud native, and infrastructure technologies 
  • Proven ability to take on complex projects and efficiently drive them from start to finish
  • Ability to clearly articulate the value of technical products to customers and sellers alike
  • Experience leading product or feature launches autonomously as well as part of a team
  • Comfort working with a variety of internal and external stakeholders in complicated processes
  • Strong product and technical curiosity that translate to clear packaging, positioning, and messaging
  • Demonstrated quantitative analytical skills for analyzing campaign performance, evaluating lifecycle metrics, and making data-driven recommendations.
  • Exceptional writing and communication skills
  • A high “say-do” ratio in executing and delivering impact 

What you’ll bring to the role

You’ll bring a passion for quality, pride in the strategic impact of your work, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment.

Compensation & Rewards:

In Germany, the Base compensation range for this role is 109,709 EUR – 131,651 EUR. Actual compensation may vary based on level, experience, and skillset as assessed throughout the interview process. All of our roles include Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), giving every team member ownership in Grafana Labs’ success. We believe in shared outcomes—RSUs help us stay aligned and invested as we scale globally.

 

*Compensation ranges are country specific. If you are applying for this role from a different location than listed above, your recruiter will discuss your specific market’s defined pay range & benefits at the beginning of the process.

Why You’ll Thrive at Grafana Labs:

  • 100% Remote, Global Culture – As a remote-only company, we bring together talent from around the world, united by a culture of collaboration and shared purpose.
  • Scaling Organization – Tackle meaningful work in a high-growth, ever-evolving environment.
  • Transparent Communication – Expect open decision-making and regular company-wide updates.

  • Career Growth Pathways – Defined opportunities to grow and develop your career.
  • Approachable Leadership – Transparent execs who are involved, visible, and human.
  • Passionate People – Join a team of smart, supportive folks who care deeply about what they do.
  • In-Person onboarding – We want you to thrive from day 1 with your fellow new ‘Grafanistas’ to learn all about what we do and how we do it. 
  • Balance is Key – We operate a global annual leave policy of 30 days per annum. 3 days of your annual leave entitlement are reserved for Grafana Shutdown Days to allow the team to really disconnect. *We will comply with local legislation where applicable.

Equal Opportunity Employer: We will recruit, train, compensate and promote regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, disability, age, veteran status, and all the other fascinating characteristics that make us different and unique. We believe that equality and diversity builds a strong organization and we’re working hard to make sure that’s the foundation of our organization as we grow.

Working to advance the nuclear renaissance

Today, there are 94 nuclear reactors operating in the United States, more than in any other country in the world, and these units collectively provide nearly 20 percent of the nation’s electricity. That is a major accomplishment, according to Dean Price, but he believes that our country needs much more out of nuclear energy, especially at a moment when alternatives to fossil fuel-based power plants are desperately being sought. He became a nuclear engineer for this very reason — to make sure that nuclear technology is up to the task of delivering in this time of considerable need.

“Nuclear energy has been a tremendous part of our nation’s energy infrastructure for the past 60 years, and the number of people who maintain that infrastructure is incredibly small,” says Price, an MIT assistant professor in the Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering (NSE), as well as the Atlantic Richfield Career Development Professor in Energy Studies. “By becoming a nuclear engineer, you become one of a select number of people responsible for carbon-free energy generation in the United States.” 

That was a mission he was eager to take part in, and the goals he set for himself were far from modest: He wanted to help design and usher in a new class of nuclear reactors, building on the safety, economics, and reliability of the existing nuclear fleet.

Price has never wavered from this objective, and he’s only found encouragement along the way. The nuclear engineering community, he says, “is small, close-knit, and very welcoming. Once you get into it, most people are not inclined to do anything else.”

Illuminating the relationships between physical processes

In his first research project as an undergraduate at the University of Illinois Urbana at Champaign, Price studied the safety of the steel and concrete casks used to store spent reactor fuel rods after they’ve cooled off in tanks of water, typically for several years. His analysis indicated that this storage method was quite safe, although the question as to what should ultimately be done with these fuel casks, in terms of long-term disposal, remains open in this country.

After starting graduate studies at the University of Michigan in 2020, Price took up a different line of research that he’s still engaged in today. That area of study, called multiphysics modeling, involves looking at various physical processes going on in the core of a nuclear reactor to see how they interact — an alternative to studying these processes one at a time.

One key process, neutronics, concerns how neutrons buzz around in the reactor core causing nuclear fission, which is what generates the power. A second process, called thermal hydraulics, involves cooling the reactor to extract the heat generated by neutrons. A multiphysics simulation, analyzing how these two processes interact, could show how the heat carried away as the reactor produces power affects the behavior of neutrons, because the hotter the fuel is, the less likely it is to cause fission.

“If you ever want to change your power level, or do anything with the reactor, the temperature of the fuel is a critical input that you need to know,” says Price. “Multiphysics modeling allows us to correlate the fission neutronics processes with a thermal property, temperature. That, in turn, can help us predict how the reactor will behave under different conditions.”

Multiphysics modeling for light water reactors, which are the ones operating today with capacities on the order of 1,000 megawatts, are pretty well established, Prices says. But methods for modeling advanced reactors — small modular reactors (SMRs with capacities ranging from around 20 to 300 MW) and microreactors (rated at 1 to 20 MW) — are far less advanced. Only a very small number of these reactors are operating today, but Price is focusing his efforts on them because of their potential to produce power more cheaply and more safely, along with their greater flexibility in power and size.   

Although multiphysics simulations have supplied the nuclear community with a wealth of information, they can require supercomputers to solve, or find approximate solutions to, coupled and extremely difficult nonlinear equations. In the hopes of greatly reducing the computational burden, Price is actively exploring artificial intelligence approaches that could provide similar answers while bypassing those burdensome equations altogether. That has been a central theme of his research agenda since he joined the MIT faculty in September 2025.

A crucial role for artificial intelligence

What artificial intelligence and machine-learning methods, in particular, are good at is finding patterns concealed within data, such as correlations between variables critical to the functioning of a nuclear plant. For example, Price says, “if you tell me the power level of your reactor, it [AI] could tell you what the fuel temperature is and even tell you the 3-dimensional temperature distribution in your core.” And if this can be done without solving any complicated differential equations, computational costs could be greatly reduced.

Price is investigating several applications where AI may be especially useful, such as helping with the design of novel kinds of reactors. “We could then rely on the safety frameworks developed over the past 50 years to carry out a safety analysis of the proposed design,” he says. “In this way, AI will not be directly interfacing with anything that is safety-critical.” As he sees it, AI’s role would be to augment established procedures, rather than replacing them, helping to fill in existing gaps in knowledge.

When a machine-learning model is given a sufficient amount of data to learn from, it can help us better understand the relationship between key physical processes — again without having to solve nonlinear differential equations. 

“By really pinning down those relationships, we can make better design decisions in the early stages,” Price says. “And when that technology is developed and deployed, AI can help us make more intelligent control decisions that will enable us to operate our reactors in a safer and more economical way.”

Giving back to the community that nurtured him

Simply put, one of his chief goals is to bring the benefits of AI to the nuclear industry, and he views the possibilities as vast and largely untapped. Price also believes that he is well-positioned as a professor at MIT to bring us closer to the nuclear future that he envisions. As he sees it, he’s working not only to develop the next generation of reactors, but also to help prepare the next generation of leaders in the field.

Price became acquainted with some prospective members of that “next generation” in a design course he co-taught last fall with Curtis Smith, the KEPCO Professor of the Practice of Nuclear Science and Engineering. For Price, that introduction lasted just a few months, but it was long enough for him to discover that MIT students are exceptionally motivated, hard-working, and capable. Not surprisingly, those happen to be the same qualities he’s hoping to find in the students that join his research team.

Price vividly recalls the support he received when taking his first, tentative steps in this field. Now that he’s moved up the ranks from undergraduate to professor, and acquired a substantial body of knowledge along the way, he wants his students “to experience that same feeling that I had upon entering the field.” Beyond his specific goals for improving the design and operation of nuclear reactors, Price says, “I hope to perpetuate the same fun and healthy environment that made me love nuclear engineering in the first place.”

Behind the Blog: Systems As Designed

This is Behind the Blog, where we share our behind-the-scenes thoughts about how a few of our top stories of the week came together. This week, we discuss crypto, journalists using AI, and a cool photo of Earth.

JOSEPH: I can’t talk about the story just yet, but recently I had to acquire some cryptocurrency quickly for research purposes. I was not anticipating quite how dramatically the world of cryptocurrency and getting it has changed.

I first became aware of cryptocurrency, or more specifically Bitcoin, when I was an intern at VICE. Someone on my table (they put all the unpaid interns on a medium sized table in the London office) was talking about it. They were pretty deep into it as I recall, and covered it a fair bit. I then was asked to work on a collaborative documentary between VICE, Raw, and the BBC about the Silk Road drug marketplace because I already knew more than most about message encryption. I then had to learn more about Bitcoin.

This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives at the intersection of product, marketing, and strategy.

  • Shape product positioning before anything ships, ensuring every feature has a clear market fit, differentiated narrative, and a compelling reason to exist
  • Develop the end-to-end storytelling for feature launches across multiple channels, including Town Halls, press releases, social media, podcast appearances, blog posts, in-product messaging, and more

Requirements

Hospitable is a remote-only and distributed company. For this position, your location is not a requirement. The ideal fit would work under US or EMEA timezones.

Don’t tick all the boxes? Talk to us about why you’re still an amazing fit. In the meantime, here’s what we’re paying attention to:

  • 5+ years experience in Product Marketing – ideally within a fast-moving, product-led SaaS company
  • Experience with fintech, payments, marketplaces, or similar products is a huge plus

  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, capable of simplifying complex ideas and rallying cross-functional teams behind a unified story
  • Comfortable diving into data to find pockets of demand and growth, and manage campaign results to assess impact, as well as make recommendations as to how these results should shape future actions

  • Extra special kudos if you are an existing Hospitable customer

 

Benefits

The company itself is also a product, one that we iterate on. We’re always improving and creating an environment where we all love to work.

  • A supportive, radically transparent, and caring team environment, where you are trusted, not managed—and a culture that is focused on results and output.
  • The total budget for this role is within US$164,000.00 – US$199,100.00 depending on the cost of living in your location. We can hire talent internationally as contractors—or employees if you are based in the United States, the European Union, or Australia, taking into account payroll taxes to determine your gross compensation. For US employees, the gross salary could be anywhere between US$151,313.44 – US$183,698.21
  • We also offer options into the company equity through our $HOST token (RSU’s), with a grant value of up to $54,300.00, to share in the long-term upside value of the company.
  • Separately, this role is eligible for up to an additional USD $308,292.00 per year in Performance Share Units (PSUs). These PSUs do not vest over time and are granted only upon the achievement of clearly defined business performance targets. The size and payout of this award are directly tied to measurable outcomes and are intended to strongly align compensation with company impact.
  • For US employees: healthcare (including EPO, PPO and HSA), 401(k).
  • 35 days off per year, encouraged (including self-serve public holidays) and parental leave.
