- We grow and mature our distributed network services and solutions for multiple cloud service provider platforms
- We are built on Kubernetes, Go/Scala, and custom orchestration architectures
- In your daily life with us, you will participate in coding, innovating technical designs, crafting solutions, improving resilience, and prioritizing security, bug fixes, and features
- For example, Debugging Azure Networking for Elastic Cloud Serverless is part of our efforts, and we want your experience to contribute to a truly exceptional customer experience!
- You'll be taking an engineering approach in leading technical initiatives for automating network engineering efforts to guarantee the reliability of the global Elastic infrastructure
- Growing our global Platform infrastructure to meet the increasing scaling demands by developing and maintaining software, tooling and automations
- Collaborating in an environment with an inclusive approach, and focusing on operational excellence, and uplifting others
- Responding to and preventing repeated customer impact in response to major incidents and prioritized problem management. Our on call rotation uses follow-the-sun model where everyone participates in it in (mostly) their working hours
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.
