Senior Information Security Infrastructure Engineer - Security Architecture - InfoSec

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
