Beats: JavaScript engineer for SecOps
At Elastic, we have a simple goal: to solve the world's data
problems with products that delight and inspire. As the company behind
the popular open source projects — Elasticsearch, Kibana, Logstash, and
Beats — we help people around the world do great things with their data.
From stock quotes to Twitter streams, Apache logs to WordPress blogs,
our products are extending what's possible with data, delivering on the
promise that good things come from connecting the dots. The Elastic
family unites employees across 30+ countries into one coherent team,
while the broader community spans across over 100 countries.
Elastic is seeking a talented JavaScript engineer to join our SecOps
team from the Ingest team. You will have the opportunity to work with
exceptional engineers on cutting edge technology. The Ingest team is
diverse and distributed across the world, and collaborates on daily

Ingest at Elastic
The Ingest team is responsible for building the Beats platform
and the solutions on top of it. Beats consists of open source shippers
that collect all kinds of operational data, store it in Elasticsearch,
and visualize it with Kibana. As part of the team that builds our SecOps
solution, you will have the opportunity to start and evolve the UI side
of a new product in the security space. You will work in a
cross-functional team focused on this product.
Engineering philosophy
We believe that engineering complex, pluggable
software for the web that is built to last the test of time is both
tricky and exciting. Doing so requires a team of diverse individuals,
with sharp minds and the ability to empathize with our users, working
together with mutual respect and a common mission.
We care deeply about giving you full ownership of what you're working
on. Our company fundamentally believes great minds achieve greatness
when they are set free and are surrounded and challenged by their peers,
which is clearly visible throughout our organization. At Elastic,
hierarchy does not determine how decisions get made. We feel that anyone
needs to be in the position to comment on anything, regardless of their
role within the company.
