We are looking for people with a deep knowledge of Java, algorithms, and concurrency and who love to take on new challenges.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">As a Software Engineer in Elasticsearch you will get the opportunity to work on different initiatives. 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! </p><p style="text-align: justify;">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.</p><h3><strong>What You Will Be Doing:</strong></h3><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">You'll be a full time Elasticsearch contributor, building scalable new features, fixing intriguing bugs and increasing the testing coverage, all while making the code easier to understand. Sometimes you'll need to invent a new algorithm or data structure. Or find one and implement it. Sometimes you'll need to get close to the operating system and hardware.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">Tackling difficult issues, including performance or concurrency issues, and proposing solutions.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">Collaborating in the open with the Elasticsearch team, Elastic Stack users, and other supporting open source projects.

The distributed nature of the company offers freedom to work when and how you see fit, but also requires team members to work independently, and reach out for help when stuck.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">You've used several data storage technologies like Elasticsearch, Solr, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Cassandra and have some idea how they work and why they work that way. </li></ul><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Bonus Points:</strong></h3><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">You've built things with Elasticsearch before.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">You have experience designing, leading and owning cross-functional initiatives.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">You've worked with open source projects and are familiar with different styles of source control workflow and continuous integration.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">You have past working experience with database, search engine, OS or cloud service development.</li></ul><p> </p><div class="content-pay-transparency"><div class="pay-input"><div class="description"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br>Compensation for this role is in the form of base salary.
