We're looking for a Software Engineer to join the Elasticsearch - Analytical Engine team. This expert team of engineers is responsible for building new analytics capabilities in Elasticsearch’s completely new compute engine, and accessed via our new piped query language called ES|QL. This is a software engineering role that covers the implementation of new features, improvements to existing features, and resolving bugs.
As a full time Elasticsearch contributor, you will contribute to the development of data-intensive enhancements to analytical capabilities in Elasticsearch. You will work closely with other software development engineers and site reliability engineers to ensure solutions are highly available, maintainable, scalable, secure, and meet compliance requirements.
Performance analysis, benchmarking, and optimizations are a huge part of the work we do. We want to know what we can do to make things go as fast as we can in a distributed, scalable way. You'll get to be intimately familiar with this aspect of our work.
Our globally distributed team of expert engineers is focused on the search and query (ES|QL) analytics capabilities of Elasticsearch. This inclusive team collaborates closely with other user experience teams crafting a friendly user interface, and with teams closer to the customer building solutions on top of these APIs (Search, Security, Observability)
Finally, we write idiomatic modern Java -- Elasticsearch is 99.8% Java.
