Senior Software Engineer (Prism, Security)

• The Prism team builds the systems that turn Elastic Security's raw data into a trustworthy picture of the users, hosts, and services in a customer's environment
• We power the Entity Store, entity risk scoring, entity resolution, and the data maintainers that analysts rely on to understand who did what, what's risky, and what to investigate next
• We build features that have to work at scale, and we care deeply about correctness and performance
• As a senior engineer, you will lead technical work across this area
• You'll partner with product, design, and engineering to turn hard, ambiguous problems into reliable, performant systems that ship to real security teams
• We're a distributed team - we work across time zones and collaborate in GitHub, Slack, design reviews, and code reviews
• Own small-to-medium projects from technical design through production, including data modeling, background tasks, and APIs
• Make our features fast and reliable at scale: profile and optimize queries, tame timeouts, and design for a range of customer topologies
• Write high-quality TypeScript and React code, with Node.js services and APIs where needed
• Build telemetry, tests, and safeguards so the systems behave predictably in production
• Review code, support teammates, and improve team practices
• Partner with teams across Elastic Security, Kibana, Elasticsearch/ES|QL, and Support
