This role reports to the GM of Elastic Security. You will be paired with our most senior engineering leader, a VP who leads all of Elastic Security engineering and whose day-to-day focus is endpoint, sharing accountability for the line's outcomes with you. You will also peer with the product lead of our SIEM and analytics business as we build one platform together. The endpoint is where we meet the adversary directly, and where the people we serve, the analysts and defenders protecting hospitals, banks, and government networks, need us most. Their mission is our mission, and this role carries that responsibility for the endpoint and XDR market. Like Elastic itself, the role is distributed by design.</p> <p>This business was born when Elastic acquired Endgame in 2019, a pioneer in endpoint prevention, detection, and response with roots in defending national security networks. We extended that protection philosophy to Linux and cloud-native environments with the Cmd acquisition in 2021. The result today is Elastic Defend, and its record in independent testing reflects the quality of the work: Elastic Security was the only vendor to score 100% protection in both the AV-Comparatives Real-World and Malware Protection Tests for all of 2025, and the only vendor among 16 to earn a perfect malware protection score in the 2026 Business Security Test, with zero false alarms on the software businesses actually run. And unlike most of this market, we do that work in the open: our protection artifacts and detection rules are public for anyone to inspect.</p> <p>This role is open for a straightforward reason. Our product leader is retiring, and we are organizing product management around our two core businesses: SIEM and analytics, which will be led by a proven leader already at Elastic, and endpoint, where we are looking outside for someone who brings a fresh perspective from this market. The timing is deliberate in another way as well: security operations are shifting toward agentic workflows, and as a challenger in this market we can move faster
