## Description

Join the InfoSec - Security Architecture team as a Senior Information Security Infrastructure Engineer, where you'll play a key role in protecting Elastic's data and systems.

In this role, you'll get security telemetry into Elasticsearch consistently and keep the underlying Elastic clusters healthy. You'll own the pipeline end-to-end: from a new security data source landing, through ingest pipelines, into the indices detection, IR, and consulting teams query, plus the clusters that store it all.

**Responsibilities:**

- Security telemetry ingestion: build and maintain ingestion of security-relevant data into Elasticsearch, integrating with third-party and cloud provider APIs.

- Keep the Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes clusters healthy: monitor and upgrade them regularly, manage capacity and shards, handle index lifecycle management, and enable cross-cluster search.

- Use Terraform to manage cloud infrastructure and Elasticsearch resources, including pipelines, index templates, and alerts.

- Use AI automation and tooling to reduce toil, including self-healing jobs and health checks.

- Data quality and reliability: own the "is the security data actually flowing correctly?" question, monitor backfills, ensure schemas and fields are consistent, and keep an eye on costs.

**Requirements:**

- Ability to operate Elastic and Elasticsearch in production, including managing ingest pipelines, index templates, mappings, and queries.

- Proven track record of using AI to accelerate development, debug complex systems, and accelerate operations.

- Kubernetes: deploying and operating workloads, troubleshooting pods/jobs in a cluster.

- Terraform: managing cloud and Elasticsearch resources as code.

- API integration: consuming REST APIs for data ingestion.

- Python scripting: able to read, write, and modify ingestion/automation scripts.

- Eligibility to work in Department of Defense (DoD) Impact Level 4 or above cloud service environments.

**Benefits:**

- Competitive pay

- Health coverage for you and your family

- Flexible locations and schedules

- Generous number of vacation days

- Increase your impact: match up to $2000 for financial donations and service

- Up to 40 hours each year to use toward volunteer projects

- Embracing parenthood with minimum of 16 weeks of parental leave
