I need to scan very large JSONL files efficiently and am considering a parallel grep-style approach over line-delimited text.
Would love to hear how you would design it.

Sorry, I missed that L, and I’ve never heard about JSONL before (although worked with JSON logs that are effectively JSONL). So, well, you may use
grep, however it can be inefficient (depends on regex engine and how good you are in regexes). It is also easy to make a mistake if you are not very proficient in regexes. So I’d prefer using JSON parser (jqor another, maybe lower level if performance matters) overgrepanyway.
