Responsibilities


elastic.co is how Elastic talks to the world — it's where potential customers first encounter our products and where existing ones come to learn more. As a Software Engineer II on the Web Engineering team you'll own meaningful parts of that experience: building the features, systems, and infrastructure that keep the site fast, reliable, and effective at scale. The ideal candidate is a full-stack engineer who is equally comfortable writing React components, designing backend services, shipping to production, and owning what they build once it's live — including on-call response and security triage.You'll work closely with stakeholders across the company to ship features that improve the site's quality and performance in a distributed, async-first environment.What You Will Be DoingOwn features across the full stack from component design and backend services to deployment pipelines and ship production code end-to-end.Instrument client-side performance (Core Web Vitals, error tracking, real-user monitoring) alongside backend logging, metrics, tracing, alerting, and dashboards.Partner with product managers, designers, and other developers to build, test, and release features for elastic.co.Write clean, maintainable code and take ownership for its behavior in production.Triage, investigate, and resolve security vulnerability reports — from reproduction and root-cause analysis to fix, validation, and coordinated disclosure.Participate in code reviews for your team.Diagnose and resolve production issues spanning client regressions to backend failures, and participate in an on-call rotation for an always-on service.What You Bring3+ years in a full-stack or frontend role, with proven TypeScript and React depth (component architecture, performance, state management) and hands-on backend experience shipping and operating production services.Production experience with Node.js, Python, or Go — enough to build, deploy, debug, and maintain backend services independently.Experience owning CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or equivalent) end-to-end, including front-end build tooling, bundle optimization, and deployment automation without a dedicated ops team.A proven track record of using AI to accelerate development, debug complex systems, and optimize code, while still owning the final outcomes.Experienced in building for high availability and scalability at real production scale, including writing secure code, identifying vulnerabilities, and resolving security issues under pressure.Ability to work autonomously in a globally distributed team.Additional Information - We Take Care of Our PeopleAs a distributed company, diversity drives our identity.
