Conduct load testing to assess scalability of networking features and optimize code to enhance response times and resource efficiency. Implement performance monitoring tools while collaborating with cross-functional teams to meet their application networking needs.
  • Identify and tackle application networking issues to enhance performance. Conduct root cause analysis for network-related incidents and document the troubleshooting processes for future reference. Develop tools aimed at tracing and fixing errors associated with application networking.
  • Collaborate with Engineering teams across Elastic to discuss and fulfill their Application Networking requirements.
What You Bring
  • Hands-on experience developing software in Golang with an emphasis on networking components that can scale.
