At Elastic, we see endless possibility in a world of endless data. And we use the power of search to help people and organizations turn that possibility into results. Elastic is the leading platform for search-powered solutions. With solutions in Enterprise Search, Observability, and Security, we help improve customer and employee search experiences, keep critical applications running smoothly, and protect against cyber threats. Elastic enables organizations worldwide to use the power of Elastic, including Netflix, Uber, BBC, Microsoft, and thousands of others.
Elastic was built on a foundation of being free and open, which trickles down to how we work. We’re a distributed organization and have been from the beginning. Being distributed isn’t just a way of doing business—it’s a mentality that is at the core of our culture.
Our mission on the Elastic Security team is to protect the world’s data from attack. Through our free and open approach, we are building a community and a product that’s making a meaningful difference in the lives of our users. And because we’re built upon the Elastic Stack, we are fulfilling our mission with speed, scale, and relevance. Our practitioner heritage as a team means trust and transparency is at the core of how we communicate with each other and with our users.
The team is diverse and distributed across the world, and collaborates on a daily basis over GitHub, Zoom, and Slack. Thus, the ability to work within a distributed team is critical. You don’t always need to be the person with the answer or the person making the decisions, but instead should be able to guide discussions to help the team make decisions together.
As a Distinguished Engineer for the Security Solution, you will be ultimately responsible for the technical architecture and quality of our Security Solution, built on top of the Elastic stack. You will be partnering and working closely with a VP-level Team Lead and Product Lead to ensure an inclusive, productive, and successful work environment for a large team (200+ people). You will be working closely also with peer Tech Leads from the other groups in Elastic (Platform/Stack, Cloud, Observability) in order to ensure a consistent architecture and user experience across our products. You will communicate the power of the Elastic stack and how it applies to the Security Solution internally, to customers and to the industry at large.
As a distributed company, diversity drives our identity. Whether you’re looking to launch a new career or grow an existing one, Elastic is the type of company where you can balance great work with great life. Your age is only a number. It doesn’t matter if you’re just out of college or your children are; we need you for what you can do.
We strive to have parity of benefits across regions and while regulations differ from place to place, we believe taking care of our people is the right thing to do.
