Principal Software Engineer (Application Networking) - Platform Infrastructure joins the Platform Infrastructure team to define the future of Elastic Cloud application networking. This role focuses on the architecture, design, and development of critical infrastructure components including Ingress, security controls, private connectivity, and DNS management for the Elasticsearch and Kibana stack. The engineer will lead multi-quarter cross-organizational projects, manage complex incident investigations, and mentor other engineers while serving as a technical advisor to product management. Key requirements include deep expertise in cloud-native architecture and experience building large-scale distributed systems rather than using off-the-shelf services. Candidates should be proficient in high-availability SaaS platforms and possess skills in Kubernetes networking tools like Cilium, external-dns, Envoy Gateway, and Crossplane. The role addresses the technical challenge of ensuring reliable, secure, and performant connectivity for cloud-based search and observability services.
