Tech lead for the Agent Framework team responsible for architecture and technical direction of 's agent layer in the Streams program.

Обязанности

's Streams program is the unified platform for getting data into Elasticsearch from edge collection all the way through cloud processing. At the edge, Agent and Beats are how data leaves customer infrastructure. 
This role is the tech lead position for the Agent Framework team: you will own the architecture, set the technical direction, and be the primary decision-maker for how 's agent layer evolves to support the Streams model.
Design a scalable and capable architecture for the agent layer. Evaluate and implement new technologies to boost system performance. Conduct reviews of existing architecture to identify areas for improvement and lead architectural discussions to drive decision-making.
Provide technical guidance and support to team members while fostering a culture of continuous learning. Conduct code reviews and offer constructive feedback to improve team performance. Lead by example, demonstrating engineering best practices and setting high standards for quality.
Engage with stakeholders to gather their requirements and expectations appropriately. Collaborate with the product management team to prioritize features based on the input gathered from stakeholders.
Facilitate collaboration across teams by organizing meetings and coordinating efforts. Identify potential risks that could hinder project success and take initiative-taking measures to mitigate them. Adjust project plans in response to changing priorities or feedback from stakeholders to ensure alignment.

Solid background in Go ( Agent and Beats are primarily Go).
Experience designing management and control planes for distributed software   particularly protocol-driven approaches like OpAMP.
Track record of leading large, multi-team technical initiatives from ambiguous design space to shipped software.
Proven ability to seamlessly transition between different projects and codebases, and work with different teams based on dynamic business priorities.
Comfortable with the full arc of a technical decision: writing the design doc, socializing it across stakeholders, building consensus, and holding the line on what matters.
Great written communication you produce design docs and ADRs that others trust and reference long after the decision is made
