What you will do:
  • Maintain the Elastic Team's infrastructure using Terraform and Salt.
  • Provide Elasticsearch clusters "as a Service", via automated deployment pipelines (GitHub Actions). Ensure our monitoring system (Prometheus and Grafana) keeps tabs on everything and notifies us when problems arise (or preferably before problems arise!).
