Search - Workchat - Software Engineer II

United States

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.

What is the Role

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our Elastic Search - WorkChat team. You'll be working collaboratively in a distributed working environment delivering a new and "chatty" way to interact with data in Elasticsearch. We’re seeking a versatile software engineer and communicator to help push the product and team to new heights. The team is responsible for data ingestion from a wide range of content sources, our web crawler and our future "chat with your own data" experience.

What You Will Be Doing:

• Develop frontend features in Kibana using Typescript and React. Also, contribute to the backend server code that supports the features.
• You will collaborate with and mentor international teammates in a mostly text-based, asynchronous, remote-first team environment with occasional video calls and yearly conferences.
• You will collaborate with the team on features, breaking them down into technical deliverables. You’ll act as an important and communicative part of an engaged and spirited team, working with designers to build a phenomenal user experience.

What You Will Bring:

• 3+ years experience building frontend web applications using TypeScript and React.
• Knowledge of Python and Ruby, or willingness to learn a new language quickly.
• Previous experience with open source is a plus.
• Excellent practical judgment. You know how to prioritize, when to collaborate and ask for help, and when to be independent.
• Measured and articulated written and spoken communication skills.
• An interest in learning new tools, languages, workflows, and philosophies that can help you grow.
• Knowledge of Redux or equivalent state management framework is a plus.

If this sounds interesting, we would love to hear from you! Please include whatever info you believe is relevant: resume, GitHub profile, code samples, blog posts and writing samples, links to personal projects, etc.
