At Elastic, our mission is to make the digital world observable, empowering engineers to build and run more resilient and performant software. We believe the future of observability is open, and that OpenTelemetry (OTel) is the standard that will unlock a new era of innovation for developers, SREs, and DevOps teams everywhere. We are major contributors to and believers in the OTel project, and we're building a world-class experience on top of its open foundation. Our Observability team is responsible for the end-to-end experience, from data collection to insight and action. This role sits at the most critical starting point of that journey: instrumentation. How do we make it seamless, intuitive, and powerful for developers to get data out of their applications and into our platform using the tools they already love? That's the question you'll answer.
\nAs the Principal Product Manager for OpenTelemetry Instrumentation, you will lead the most fundamental part of our customer's journey: the first mile. You will be responsible for crafting a world-class developer experience for instrumenting applications, services, and infrastructure using OpenTelemetry. Your role is to make data collection so seamless that it feels like magic, enabling our customers to unlock the full power of our observability platform.
\nThis is a high-impact, deeply technical product role at the intersection of open source, developer experience, and business strategy. You will be our voice and our ears within the OpenTelemetry community, shaping the future of the standard while simultaneously defining the direction for our OTel-native SDKs, exporters, collectors, and documentation. You are dedicated to the developer workflow, obsessing over everything from our "Getting Started" guides to the performance overhead of our instrumentation libraries.
