Job description

• As a Software Engineer II on the Web Engineering team you’ll own meaningful parts of that experience: building the features, systems, and infrastructure that keep the site fast, reliable, and effective at scale
• You’ll work closely with stakeholders across the company to ship features that improve the site’s quality and performance in a distributed, async-first environment
• Own features across the full stack from component design and backend services to deployment pipelines and ship production code end-to-end
• Instrument client-side performance (Core Web Vitals, error tracking, real-user monitoring) alongside backend logging, metrics, tracing, alerting, and dashboards
• Partner with product managers, designers, and other developers to build, test, and release features for elastic.co
• Write clean, maintainable code and take ownership for its behavior in production
• Triage, investigate, and resolve security vulnerability reports — from reproduction and root‑cause analysis to fix, validation, and coordinated disclosure
• Participate in code reviews for your team
• Diagnose and resolve production issues spanning client regressions to backend failures, and participate in an on‑call rotation for an always‑on service

Benefits

• Toast to your health: Fully paid health coverage for you and your family, in many locations.
• Craft your calendar: Flexible location and schedule for most roles.
• Create space for you: Distributed by design workforce, plus generous number of vacation days each year.
• Embrace parenthood: Minimum of 16 weeks of parental leave, plus generous family formation benefits.
• Give back your time: 40 hours each year to use toward volunteering with organizations and causes you’re passionate about.
• Amplify your impact: Double your charitable giving — we match donations up to $1500 USD (or local currency equivalent).

• The ideal candidate is a full-stack engineer who is equally comfortable writing React components, designing backend services, shipping to production, and owning what they build once it’s live — including on-call response and security triage
• A proven track record of using AI to accelerate development, debug complex systems, and optimize code, while still owning the final outcomes
• Experienced in building for high availability and scalability at real production scale, including writing secure code, identifying vulnerabilities, and resolving security issues under pressure
• Experience owning CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or equivalent) end-to‑end, including front‑end build tooling, bundle optimization, and deployment automation without a dedicated ops team
• Production experience with Node.js, Python, or Go — enough to build, deploy, debug, and maintain backend services independently
• Ability to work autonomously in a globally distributed team
• 3+ years in a full-stack or frontend role, with proven TypeScript and React depth (component architecture, performance, state management) and hands‑on backend experience shipping and operating production services
