Role

Who you are

Do you want to work on distributed search and analytics software which impacts the lives of millions of people? We’re not interested in your previous job title.
Instead, we are looking for forward-thinking people with a deep knowledge of Java, algorithms, and concurrency, who have experience contributing to and managing large Java codebases, with knowledge of CI/CD systems and practices and Java build tools, and who love to solve new challenges
Experience contributing to and managing large Java codebases
Knowledge of CI/CD systems and practices (Buildkite, Argo CD, GitOps etc)
Knowledge of Java build tools (Gradle, Maven, Bazel etc), with a strong preference for Gradle experience
Familiarity with Unix/Linux and shell scripting
Experience of container runtimes (e.g. Docker) and orchestration (e.g. Kubernetes)
A high level of autonomy. The distributed nature of the company offers freedom to work when and how you see fit, but also requires team members to work independently, and reach out for help when stuck

Desirable

Experience running Elasticsearch at scale
Experience maintaining open source libraries
Experience with continuous delivery of a SaaS product

What the job involves

We are on the lookout for a Senior Java Developer to join our Elasticsearch Delivery team. The mission of the team is to enable Elasticsearch developers to be productive and efficient, ensure the stability of build and continuous integration environments, and develop the testing infrastructure, tooling and automation in support of Elasticsearch development, quality assurance and developer workflows
Working on large impactful projects that evolve the developer workflows for Elasticsearch engineers enabling them to be as productive and efficient as possible
Shaping our build and continuous integration environments
Design and build tooling and automation for Elasticsearch development
Driving strategy for how Elasticsearch deploys in the cloud
Solving difficult issues, including performance or concurrency issues, and proposing solutions
Collaborating in the open with the Elasticsearch team, Elastic users, and other supporting open source projects

Our take

Elastic develops the Elastic Stack, an open-source set of tools that includes Elasticsearch, Kibana, Beats, and Logstash, designed for data search and analysis. It also offers X-Pack, which adds commercial features to the Elastic Stack, and Elastic Cloud, a suite of SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) products.

This technology is widely used by major companies like eBay, Wikipedia, Yelp, Uber, Lyft, Tinder, and Netflix, along with over 17,000 other organizations. It is applied in various use cases, including application and website search, enterprise search, logging, infrastructure monitoring, application performance management (APM), security analytics (enhancing SIEM applications), and business analytics.
