Offer description

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. By taking advantage of all structured and unstructured data — securing and protecting private information more effectively — Elastic’s complete, cloud-based solutions for search, security, and observability help organizations deliver on the promise of AI. 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. What You Will Be Doing You'll be developing, maintaining, and supporting libraries and third-party integrations for the Elastic Stack across Python, Java, TypeScript, Go, .NET, owning code in multiple languages as part of your day-to-day work You'll build and evolve integrations with GenAI frameworks, agentic tooling, and the broader AI ecosystem You'll use AI coding tools daily for writing, reviewing, and testing code, as a core productivity lever You'll support users through GitHub issues, forums, and official support channels You'll collaborate with external maintainers to deepen Elastic's reach across the ecosystems that matter to developers You'll represent Elastic in developer communities through open source, talks, or writing You'll contribute to technical direction and help define how the team approaches new tools and integrations What You Bring 8 years of software engineering experience, with a meaningful portion spent building, releasing, and maintaining public-facing libraries or SDKs A polyglot engineering background: production experience in at least two of Python, Java, TypeScript, Go, and .NET, with a demonstrated ability to pick up new languages and ecosystems quickly. This team owns libraries across multiple languages, so breadth matters as much as depth Knowledge of HTTP, RESTful APIs, and open-source development practices A strong focus on usability and developer experience Hands-on mastery of AI coding tools Understanding of vector databases and their role in AI/search architectures Genuine interest in the agentic AI ecosystem Bias to action: you make pragmatic calls, ship, and iterate Bonus Points Active in tech communities via open source, writing, or talks (nice to have) Prior experience with Elastic products (nice to have)
