What is The Role
 
In this role, you'll be deeply involved in shaping the future of application networking solutions within the Elastic Cloud, focusing on key areas such as Ingress, security controls, private connectivity, and DNS management. You will play a vital role in ensuring that every interaction with Elasticsearch, Kibana, and the broader Elastic stack is proficient and secure. You will work with various engineering teams.

Conduct load testing to assess scalability of networking features and optimize code to enhance response times and resource efficiency. Implement performance monitoring tools while collaborating with cross-functional teams to meet their application networking needs.
  • Identify and tackle application networking issues to enhance performance. Conduct root cause analysis for network-related incidents and document the troubleshooting processes for future reference. Develop tools aimed at tracing and fixing errors associated with application networking.
  • Collaborate with Engineering teams across Elastic to discuss and fulfill their Application Networking requirements.
What You Bring
  • Hands-on experience developing software in Golang with an emphasis on networking components that can scale.
  • Experience working with Kubernetes (Cilium, external-dns, Envoy Gateway & Crossplane) are also great
  • Knowledge with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and their networking ecosystem
  • Proficient in using AI tools to enhance code functionality and maintainability
  • Facilitated knowledge-sharing initiatives that promoted best practices in application networking across teams
  • Care about the quality of work shipped — testing, observability, and operability
