What is The Role
What You Will Be Doing
-
Design, build, and maintain Beats data shippers, Filebeat inputs and modules, plus host/endpoint collectors such as Auditbeat, Winlogbeat, Packetbeat, and Osquerybeat in Go.
-
Develop and maintain security integration packages for third-party sources (identity/IdP, EDR/XDR, email security, firewalls, cloud security, threat intel, vulnerability management).
-
Build robust Elastic managed/API-based collection against external vendor and cloud-provider APIs (AWS, Azure, GCP), handling auth (OAuth2, tokens), pagination, rate limits, and resilience.
-
Improve reliability, performance, and observability of collection at scale; own quality for your areas and drive down failing-test and reliability noise.
-
Review community and partner contributions, mentor engineers, and set technical direction across the ingestion surface.
-
Collaborate with product, security research, and field teams to prioritize high-impact sources and unblock customer onboarding.
-
Apply LLMs and AI automation to ease and accelerate the work e.g. scaffolding new integrations/modules, drafting and normalizing ECS mappings and ingest pipelines, generating parsers and tests from sample data, summarizing vendor API docs, and triaging failing-test and reliability noise.
-
Build and improve internal AI-assisted tooling and automation (scripts, agents, CI steps) that reduce toil across a large catalog, and establish good practices for using AI safely and effectively (review, validation, guarding against hallucinated mappings).
What You Bring
-
5+ years of software engineering experience building production backend/data systems. Solid proficiency in Go (or robust systems-language experience with a track record of ramping quickly).
-
Experience integrating with third-party/cloud APIs authentication, pagination, rate limiting, retries, and handling unreliable upstreams.
-
Solid understanding of data pipelines / ETL / log & event processing and structured data modeling.
-
Experience with agent-based or host-level data collection (logs, metrics, network, OS/endpoint telemetry) and/or building data connectors at scale.
-
Comfort operating in large open-source codebases: proficient testing discipline, code review, and public collaboration.
-
Hands-on experience using LLMs / AI coding assistants and building AI-driven automation to accelerate engineering work, with good judgment about where AI helps and where it needs human validation.
