We're looking for a systems thinker who is curious by nature, stays ahead of the curve on AI and emerging tooling, and takes ownership not just of what the team builds but of how the entire engineering org works.
In this role,



you'll shape how Elastic engineers build and ship — making AI a genuine accelerant in the development lifecycle while ensuring our products reach customers with high quality. If you thrive in ambiguity, operate with high agency, and are energized by work that multiplies the effectiveness of every team around you, we'd love to hear from you.
What You Will Be Doing :Define the technical vision for AI-assisted development across the org from agent context standards and shared skills to LLM-backed tooling embedded in everyday engineering workflows.
Identify the highest-leverage points in the SDLC where AI can meaningfully reduce toil, then build and ship the tooling to capture that leverage.
Design the guardrails that make AI adoption fast and safe — quality gates, security boundaries, and measurement that tells us whether it's actually working.
Improve CI infrastructure reliability and efficiency, and build the systems that produce releasable artifacts.
