Job description
Machine Learning (ML) for the Elastic Stack allows users to better understand the behavior of their data. We have developed an unsupervised machine learning engine that can plow through large amounts of data and automatically find those insights our users today have been proactively finding using search. Current use cases include finding anomalies within transactions / operational metrics, detecting uncharacteristic user behavior or finding malicious devices.

We have an exciting roadmap and are looking to hire an extraordinary Software Engineer to join us. You will have an amazing opportunity to join a small, highly experienced team where you can make an immediate impact and contribution to the development of our new machine learning offerings.

What you will be doing

As a member of the team, you will contribute to the further development and ongoing maintenance of our ML focussed projects and the integration of our core ML algorithms and code into the Elastic Stack. You do not need to be a machine learning expert, however you do need to be comfortable working in a data driven development environment using large complex datasets to ensure analytical and operational performance. Day to day, the majority of your development tasks will be in Java, but familiarity and experience with C++ and JavaScript is useful. In addition, you will be working closely with data, UI and QA engineers, as well as collaborating with the core Elasticsearch team and the Elastic Stack community.
