Elastic, the Search AI Company, enables everyone to find the answers they need in real time, using all their data, at scale — unleashing the potential of businesses and people. The Elastic Search AI Platform, used by more than 50% of the Fortune 500, brings together the precision of search and the intelligence of AI to enable everyone to accelerate the results that matter. By taking advantage of all structured and unstructured data — securing and protecting private information more effectively — Elastic's complete, cloud-based solutions for search, security, and observability help organizations deliver on the promise of AI. We are on the lookout for talented Senior Software Engineers to join our Elasticsearch team.

We are looking for people with a deep knowledge of Java, algorithms, and concurrency and who love to take on new challenges.

Whether it's advancing Elastic Cloud Serverless, building new analytics capabilities in ES|QL (our newest query language powered by a new compute engine), enhancing current logging solutions to efficiently store logs and provide a great customer experience, there is always a good challenge ahead! Our company is distributed by intention. We hire the best engineers we can find wherever they are, whoever they are. We collaborate across continents every day over email, GitHub, Zoom, and Slack. At our best, we write fast, scalable, intuitive and high-quality software. We believe that the best way to do that is to empower individual engineers, code review every change, decide big things by consensus, and strive for incremental improvements.
