Meet the Grafana Labs Team: Joe Elliott
Blog post from Grafana Labs
Joe Elliott is a Senior Software Engineer at Grafana Labs, based in Louisville, Kentucky, where he specializes in managing Jaeger trace infrastructure and collaborates with open-source tracing communities. He actively contributes to various open-source projects, including OpenTelemetry, Loki, and Kubernetes, and maintains a presence on GitHub under the handle joe-elliott, though he is less active on Twitter as @actually_chores. In his free time, Joe enjoys reading, raising his children, and occasionally playing video games, although he is not particularly interested in gadgets beyond the utility of a modern phone. Joe is adaptable to different coding environments, having grown up in a noisy household, and finds that diving into typing helps him get into the coding zone, followed by a thorough review and editing process.
