Listed from Elastic's own careers website
About this role
Elastic, the company behind the Elastic Search AI Platform, is hiring a Director of Product Management to own Streams, its telemetry pipeline. Streams is the shared ingest layer for Elastic's Observability, Security and Search products. It collects data from any source, processes and routes it, and stores it in Elasticsearch or in the customer's own object storage, using open standards such as OpenTelemetry and Prometheus.
In this leadership role you would:
- Set the strategy and roadmap for data collection, ingestion, processing, routing and the integrations framework
- Define and track adoption KPIs for products and features
- Work with the Observability, Security and Search product leaders so Streams serves everyone as a shared service
- Make data ingestion self-service, with customers getting their first data in within minutes
- Lead a distributed team of product managers
- Shape priorities with customers, internal teams and the community, and work with engineers and designers on features
- Give sales, marketing and partners clear messaging and positioning
Elastic is looking for 10+ years in product management, including at least 4 years leading PM teams in data infrastructure, observability or data pipelines. You should know telemetry ingest well (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, log processing, routing and agent management), have shipped SaaS products with usage-based pricing, and have built platform capabilities shared by several product lines. Strong written and spoken communication is essential, and familiarity with the Elastic Stack is a plus.
What Elastic says it offers:
- Pay based on the work you do at Elastic rather than your previous salary
- Health cover for you and your family in many locations
- Flexible locations and schedules for many roles
- A generous number of holiday days each year
- Donation matching up to $2,000 (or local equivalent) and up to 40 hours a year for volunteering
- At least 16 weeks of parental leave
