About VictoriaMetricsVictoriaMetrics builds high-performance open-source systems for metrics, logs, and traces, designed to run efficiently at scale.
About VictoriaMetrics VictoriaMetrics builds high-performance open-source systems for metrics, logs, and traces, designed to run efficiently at scale. Our focus is on predictable resource usage, operational simplicity, and performance under real production workloads. We are open-source first: most development happens publicly onGitHub, where users and contributors actively shape the direction of the project. This feedback loop is a core part of how we build and improve our products. We are a fully remote, globally distributed team. The company is profitable and sustainable, and we operate with a long-term engineering mindset. Our software runs in production environments ranging from Raspberry Pi homelabs to large multi-thousand-node Kubernetes clusters. Fortune 500 companies use our products as part of their core observability stack. Our software is used by companies such as Spotify, Roblox, CoreWeave, Grammarly, CERN, and thousands of others. What You Will Do Focus on development and maintenance of the VictoriaTraces project, our distributed tracing solution. Continuously learn about industry distributed tracing solutions, understand the pain points they solve for users, and collaborate with us to shape VictoriaTraces’ roadmap. Contribute to improving documentation so users can find answers more easily on their own. Collaborate with the open-source community by participating in issue discussions, providing feedback on pull requests, and helping users across Slack, Telegram, GitHub, and other channels. Maintain core functionality, with a focus on issues that impact everyday usability. Help users get the most value out of VictoriaTraces and VictoriaStack as a whole. Look for ways to simplify code and improve usability while preserving backward compatibility. Improve existing features where it makes sense, avoiding unnecessary complexity. Help keep the codebase simple, understandable, and maintainable over time. Ensure that changes and contributions stay aligned with product direction and real user needs. Help maintain system quality and performance by strengthening existing tests and adding new ones where needed. About You 2+ years building and operating production systems. Ability to understand, write, and review Golang code. Understanding of the observability domain and distributed systems. User-focused, willing to help debug real-world issues. High ownership and ability to drive tasks independently. Strong written and spoken English required. Preferred Qualifications Experience with Prometheus/VictoriaMetrics, VictoriaTraces/Jaeger, OpenTelemetry. Experience with Grafana. Experience with Kubernetes. Contributions to open-source projects. Interview Process: Introductory Video Call (30 mins): Meet with our HR team to discuss your experience, background, and overall fit for the role. Technical Interview (1 hour): Dive deep into your technical skills and problem-solving approach with our engineering team.
