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

The Engineering Productivity team provides the foundation for Elastic teams to develop, build, test, and release their software at scale. We empower them to be efficient and independent by providing realistic and reliable developer environments. We’re continuously evolving our workflow and increasingly pushing boundaries toward Continuous Delivery and Continuous Quality models. Not only this, but we are also working on delivering secure solutions to our customers by overcoming vulnerabilities introduced into our cloud and CI/CD environments via third-party dependencies that could lead to and exploit or breach of our software supply chain. In addition, we provide tools, both customized and standard, to improve the development and delivery experiences.

Many challenges are ahead of us. We are looking for someone to help us overcome them and maintain smooth delivery of our products, regardless of scale. Does this sound like you?

Our Engineering Productivity infrastructure is powered by technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Buildkite, Terraform, CDKTF, Backstage, common Cloud service providers (GCP/AWS), signing technology (GPG, Sigstore, and notarization), and languages such as Java, Go and Python.

  • Be part of a distributed team of engineers from across the globe.
  • Collaborate with other teams within Elastic when working on cross-team efforts.
  • Improve our engineering standards, tooling, and processes
What You Bring 
  • A record of software engineering excellence, delivering high-quality code to Production
  • Strong experience in a language of choice, such as Python, Go, Java, or Scala
  • Deep passion for automation and for raising the quality bar.
  • Strong analytical, debugging, and problem solving skills.
  • The ability to learn quickly, handle ambiguity and solve big problems
  • Deep understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle: building, packaging, testing, and releasing, and experience driving a product release/quality strategy
  • Excellent written and verbal technical communication skills
  • Cloud experience, for example, Terraform, cloud CSPs, Kubernetes, config management tools, containerization
  • A passion for working across team boundaries and interacting with internal customers
  • You care deeply about the design and quality of the features you ship
  • You love working with a diverse, worldwide team in a distributed work environment
  • Humble and ambitious attitude
  • An ability to cultivate a culture of mutual respect, teamwork, and consensus-based decision-making
  • Bonus: Experience with FedRAMP Moderate and/or FedRAMP High
  • Bonus: Practical knowledge of Elasticsearch

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
