What is The Role

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Developer Experience Team. In this role, you will bring deep expertise in programming languages and ecosystems to a distributed team of engineers spanning various technical disciplines. You will help build, maintain, and support client libraries, SDKs, and framework integrations across a broad range of languages.

The Developer Experience Team is the primary bridge between Elastic's product suite and the developers who build on top of it. We create the libraries, tools, and integrations that make it easy to embed Elastic into real-world applications, and we engage directly with the communities that use them. As the AI and agentic landscape evolves rapidly, this team plays a central role in ensuring Elastic is a first-class citizen in that ecosystem, from GenAI frameworks to vector search to agent tooling.

You will be working on fully open-sourced code embedded within user applications. That means understanding the implications of writing software in the open, managing versioning and releases carefully, and engaging with users directly in public forums and repositories.

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