What is The Role
Elastic is expanding the Ecosystem Architects team focused on the most consequential AI providers in the AI Ecosystem — OpenAI and Anthropic. We are looking for a builder, an architect who will own the technical strategy and relationships with both.
In this hands-on individual contributor role you'd be driving the co-build strategy through deeper integrations with both ecosystems, influencing Elastic Product strategy, building the prototypes, and shaping the GTM content that would help customers bring frontier intelligence to unstructured data.
As the AI Ecosystem Architect you will build, manage and own the technical relationships end-to-end — bringing both technical depth and the credibility that comes from having built things yourself.
"The deep integrations with OpenAI and Anthropic are at the center of how Elastic thinks Frontier AI will shape enterprises when brought to unstructured enterprise data. Elasticsearch is purpose-built to solve the retrieval problem for AI agents, and the person in this role will influence the most consequential decisions in how Elastic technology integrates with these ecosystems." — Global VP, Head of Business & Corporate Development, Elastic
