What is The Role :

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join the Developer Tools Team. In this role, you will bring your expertise in programming languages and ecosystems to our distributed team of engineers from various technical disciplines. You will help build, maintain, and support client libraries and framework integrations. An interest in working across a range of projects and programming languages, with a particular focus on Rust and Go, is essential. You will also have experience developing software in an open source environment as a lead maintainer.

The Developer Tools Team is primarily responsible for creating libraries, tools, and integrations that simplify and enhance the development of software backed by Elastic products. Your role will involve building and maintaining such projects, engaging with developer communities, and contributing to both team-wide projects and cross-team collaborations.

You will be working on fully open sourced code that is embedded within user applications, so will need to understand the implications of writing software in the open, versioning and managing product releases, and interacting with users directly in a public setting.

Prior experience with the Elastic product suite is not essential, but is beneficial.

What You Will Be Doing :

• You'll be developing, maintaining, and supporting libraries, tools, and integrations related to the Elastic Stack, working in a mixture of languages including Rust and Go.
• You'll participate in the design and development of team-wide projects.
• You'll support users through GitHub issues, forums, and official support channels.
• You'll collaborate with maintainers of external projects to facilitate integration with the Elastic Stack.
• You'll represent Elastic within relevant communities and ecosystems.

What You Bring :

• 8+ years of backend software engineering experience.
• Significant recent working experience of Rust, Go, and (ideally) other languages.
• Knowledge of client-server networking, HTTP, and RESTful APIs.
• Knowledge of developing software within an open-source environment.
• Knowledge of industry best practices in software engineering.
• A strong focus on usability and developer experience.
• A genuine interest in technology and an active interest in exploring multiple programming languages.
• An understanding of core AI principles and LLMs.
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills.
• A willingness to work as part of a remote, globally distributed team.
• Clear thinking, self-motivation, and the ability to learn and work independently.
• A connection to technical communities through open source projects, blogs or talks (nice to have)
• Prior experience of Elastic products (nice to have)
