Verified Tech Jobs & Hiring Companies, Updated Every 24 Hours

Elastic, the Search AI Company, enables everyone to find the answers they need in real time, using all their data, at scale — unleashing the potential of businesses and people. The Elastic Search AI Platform, used by more than 50% of the Fortune 500, brings together the precision of search and the intelligence of AI to enable everyone to accelerate the results that matter. By taking advantage of all structured and unstructured data — securing and protecting private information more effectively — Elastic’s complete, cloud-based solutions for search, security, and observability help organizations deliver on the promise of AI. What is The Role The Context Engine team builds the knowledge layer that AI agents use to work with enterprise data in Elasticsearch. We extract knowledge from any data sources into a structured AI Index, serve it to agents through public APIs, MCP tools and framework integrations, and close the loop with agent traces so that what the engine knows improves from real usage. Any agent can use it: Elastic’s own Agent Builder, Claude Code, LangChain and other third-party harnesses. As a Principal AI Engineer, you own the improvement loop of this product end to end: how agents, automations and skills behave in production, how we observe them, how we evaluate them, and how we ship changes to them safely. This is a hybrid role at the intersection of engineering, data science, and product. You will write production code, design evaluation and telemetry that product decisions can rest on, and set the technical bar for how the team iterates on agentic behaviour. You will work alongside data scientists, backend engineers, product, and UX, and your work will show up directly in what customers build on top of Elastic. The codebase is TypeScript and we build it in the open, so you'll be shipping code, designs and discussions in public alongside the rest of the Elastic Stack. What You Will Be Doing Own the production improvement loop for Context Engine: understand how extraction automations, retrieval tools and memory behave, based on offline evaluations and customer conversations and telemetry. You help find the failure modes, fix them, and prove the fix. Define how we iterate on agents and skills safely: versioning and rollout of prompts, skills and automations, regression coverage, staged and shadow evaluation, and the guardrails that let us change behaviour without breaking customers. Design the telemetry we need to make data-informed engineering decisions: what to capture from agent traces, tool calls and knowledge retrieval, how it lands in Elasticsearch, and how it feeds evaluation, dashboards and the feedback loop. Partner with the data science team on evaluation strategy: golden datasets, evaluators to gate on quality, latency and cost. Raise the bar across the team: review designs and PRs, mentor engineers in eval-driven development, and write the technical proposals that shape the roadmap. What You Bring 10+ years of software engineering experience, with the recent years spent shipping and operating AI-driven products on real production traffic, ideally products with public APIs and data models that had to evolve without breaking customers. A track record of eval-driven product improvement: you have diagnosed agent or LLM behaviour from traces and user feedback, designed the evaluation that exposed the problem, shipped the fix and measured the outcome. Direct experience building agents with state and memory, and iterating on prompts, skills and tool behaviour safely in production. Familiarity with MCP, including exposing public MCP servers and tools. Experience designing telemetry for AI systems, and using it to make engineering and product decisions. Experience running product experiments end to end: instrumentation, unattended execution, and interpreting results. Experience building products with public APIs and evolving data models, and the judgement that comes with maintaining external contracts as a product changes. Strong backend engineering skills in either Python or TypeScript: APIs, stateful workflows, data pipelines and production services. Comfort working with data scientists, engineers, and product managers as peers, translating between measurement and shipping, and communicating trade-offs clearly. A pragmatic, low-ego style suited to a distributed, async-first team. Bonus Points Experience with agent frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, Claude Agent SDK, or similar. Agentic retrieval experience, including knowledge representation. Practical Elasticsearch experience. Compensation for this role is in the form of base salary.

The Elastic Search AI Platform, used by more than 50% of the Fortune 500, brings together the precision of search and the intelligence of AI to enable everyone to accelerate the results that matter. By taking advantage of all structured and unstructured data — securing and protecting private information more effectively — Elastic’s complete, cloud-based solutions for search, security, and observability help organizations deliver on the promise of AI. What is The Role : Join the InfoSec - Security Architecture team as a Senior Information Security Infrastructure Engineer , where you'll have the chance to play a key role in protecting our organization's data and systems. This position offers the opportunity to work on meaningful projects that directly impact our security posture and collaborate with a skilled team passionate about information security. In more details: We ingest the security telemetry that the whole security org runs on. In this role you'll get that telemetry into Elasticsearch consistently and keep the underlying Elastic clusters healthy. You 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. What You Will Be Doing : Security telemetry ingestion - build and maintain ingestion of security-relevant data into Elasticsearch (cloud provider audit logs, identity/SaaS activity, endpoint and asset data). This means integrating with third-party and cloud provider APIs to pull telemetry: auth, pagination, rate limits, and handling schema changes. Both Elastic integrations and one-off custom integrations. Keep the Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes clusters healthy. Monitor and upgrade them regularly. This involves updating versions and builds. Manage capacity and shards. Handle index lifecycle management (ILM). Enable cross-cluster search (CCS). Use Terraform to manage cloud infrastructure and Elasticsearch resources. This includes managing pipelines, index templates, and alerts. Utilize Kubernetes and Helm to deploy scheduled ingest jobs. Use AI automation and tooling to reduce toil. This includes self-healing jobs and health checks. It also involves alerting, internal CLIs, and AI or agent-assisted workflows for investigation and operations. Data quality & reliability - Own the "is the security data actually flowing correctly?" question. Monitor backfills. Ensure that schemas and fields are consistent. Keep an eye on costs. What You Bring : Ability to operate Elastic and Elasticsearch in production. This includes managing ingest pipelines, index templates, mappings, and queries, while ensuring that clusters are healthy and upgraded. Experience with ECK or Elasticsearch on Kubernetes is strongly preferred. Proven track record of using AI to accelerate development, debug complex systems, and accelerate operations, while still owning the final outcomes. Kubernetes - deploying and operating workloads (scheduled jobs, Helm charts, operators); troubleshooting pods/jobs in a cluster. Terraform - managing cloud and Elasticsearch resources as code. API integration - consuming REST APIs for data ingestion: authentication, pagination, rate limiting concurrency, and error handling. Python scripting - able to read, write, and modify ingestion/automation scripts. Scripting-level, not full software-engineering depth. Eligibility to work in Department of Defense (DoD) Impact Level 4 or above cloud service environments. Bonus Points : Experience with cloud providers. Hands-on experience with cloud providers, preferably GCP, and working with audit and logging data. Knowledge of GitHub, PR-based workflows, GitHub Actions and Continuous Integration (CI). Knowledge of SOC operations and incident response (IR) workflows, including the use of security telemetry during investigations. Ability to develop and use dashboard/visualization tools.
