Role Description 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 Doing - Own 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. Qualifications - 3+ 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 track record of 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. Benefits - Competitive pay based on the work you do here and not your previous salary. - Health coverage for you and your family in many locations. - Ability to craft your calendar with flexible locations and schedules for many roles. - Generous number of vacation days each year. - Increase your impact - We match up to $2000 (or local currency equivalent) for financial donations and service. - Up to 40 hours each year to use toward volunteer projects you love. - Embracing parenthood with a minimum of 16 weeks of parental leave.

Role Description We are looking for a senior Python Backend contractor to support the modernization of existing applications as part of a broader platform transition. This is a highly hands-on role: the selected contractor must have strong practical experience and be able to contribute from day 1 with minimal ramp-up. The main focus of this role is to refactor existing Python applications with minimal intervention to support the gradual decomposition of a monolith into a set of decoupled services, while ensuring that configuration and settings are fully environment-based. This is a delivery-focused role, not a greenfield rewrite or architecture-only position. We are looking for an engineer who can assess the existing codebase quickly, identify pragmatic refactoring opportunities, and implement them directly. Important: we will only consider candidates whose primary professional experience is as a Python Backend Engineer. Profiles coming mainly from adjacent roles with only partial backend exposure will not be considered. - Refactor existing Python backend applications to support the decomposition of a monolith into smaller, decoupled services. - Identify pragmatic, low-impact changes that improve modularity and separation of concerns without unnecessary redesign. - Ensure application configuration and settings are environment-based and suitable for deployment across multiple environments. - Develop and maintain production-grade backend services and APIs in Python with focus on maintainability, reliability, and security. - Support the transition of applications toward containerized and automated deployment models, working closely with DevSecOps and platform engineers. - Improve code quality, testing, troubleshooting, and documentation to enable safe incremental change. - Troubleshoot and resolve functional, integration, and performance issues in existing backend services. - Document implemented changes and contribute to good backend engineering practices across the team. Qualifications - 7+ years of professional experience in backend software development, with Python backend engineering as the main professional focus. - Strong recent hands-on experience in Python backend development. - Proven experience building and maintaining production backend services and APIs. - Proven experience working in existing or legacy codebases and performing incremental refactoring. - Practical experience supporting the decomposition of monolithic applications into smaller, decoupled services. - Strong understanding of environment-based configuration, backend architecture, API design, and database design. - Good understanding of integration patterns, service boundaries, and maintainable backend design. - Familiarity with CI/CD practices, Git workflows, code reviews, and Agile/Scrum delivery. - Good understanding of secure coding practices and writing maintainable, well-tested code. - Strong analytical, debugging, communication, and documentation skills. - Experience with Docker and Kubernetes-based deployments. - Experience with message queues, event-driven architectures, or caching strategies. - Experience in cloud or hybrid environments. - Good spoken and written English.
