About the role
The principal seat on Elastic's distributed systems team, designing and operating core pieces of serverless Elasticsearch. Same territory as the senior listing: cluster coordination, concurrent and consistent indexing, and the safety and liveness properties that keep it correct as nodes come and go.
The scale goals are stated directly: push the limits on shards, nodes and petabytes. Canada remote, Java. The band here matches the senior posting rather than exceeding it, so ask about levelling early in the process.
