• Deploy, scale, and manage Elastic Stack components in Kubernetes environments.
• Create custom pipelines, optimize searches and reindex
• Create and maintain helm charts
• Integrate Elastic Stack with OCI services, ensuring secure and efficient cloud deployments.
• Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize Elastic Stack performance and reliability.
• Collaborate with DevOps, UNIX, Windows, and application development teams to deliver scalable and resilient solutions.
• Implement security best practices for data protection and access control within Elastic deployments.
• Stay current with Elastic Stack updates and emerging best practices.

Required Skills and Experience

• Secret Clearance or above
• Possession of CompTIA Security+ certification (or ability to acquire within a month of starting the role)

• Hands-on experience in administering a self-managed Elasticsearch cluster on VMs and transitioning to Elasticsearch on Kubernetes (ECK) using helm charts for tech refreshes.
• Deep understanding of all components of the Elastic Stack and their integration in a complex technical environment, with the ability to optimize for peak performance. Knowledge of APM would be especially impactful.
• Containerization and Orchestration Experience: While Kubernetes expertise is preferred, additional experience with Docker and other containerization technologies would be advantageous for monitoring containerized applications.
• Linux Administration: a foundation in Linux system administration, with expertise in managing, securing, and optimizing Linux servers in a high-availability environment.
