CCR Senior Production Technicians

Principal Search Consulting Architect

Elastic

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 As a Principal Search Architect, you will serve as the elite technical authority and visionary leader helping our largest enterprise customers unlock the full potential of Elasticsearch. Acting as a strategic, trusted advisor to CTOs and Enterprise Architecture teams, you will design, govern, and scale massive, complex Elasticsearch cluster topologies that transform application search performance, data retrieval infrastructure, and AI-powered semantic search capabilities. You will bridge the gap between business strategy and cutting-edge distributed systems engineering, collaborating directly with Elastic’s global Professional Services leadership, Core Engineering, Product Management, and Sales executives. In this high-impact role, you will shape the future of enterprise deployments by driving regional architectural standards, leading critical cluster migrations, and mentoring both Fortune 500 engineering teams and internal Elastic technical staff. WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING * Elasticsearch Core Architecture: Translate highly complex business requirements into resilient, next-generation enterprise retrieval architectures built natively on distributed Elasticsearch environments. * Cluster Governance & Design: Lead the overarching technical strategy and design authority for high-stakes customer engagements—from initial node blueprinting and capacity planning to custom mappings, shard strategy, Index Lifecycle Management (ILM), and cross-cluster replication (CCR/CCS). * Advanced Vector Search & AI Engineering: Design and operationalize cutting-edge semantic search architectures utilizing Elasticsearch’s native vector database capabilities, including kNN, Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN), ELSER (Elastic Learned Sparse Encoder), hybrid retrieval, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines. * Performance Tuning & Optimization: Profile, benchmark, and tune distributed search and indexing performance for ultra-high-QPS environments with aggressive sub-second SLAs, optimizing Apache Lucene segment merging, caching layers, and heap/garbage collection configurations. * High-Throughput Indexing: Architect robust distributed ingestion strategies handling petabyte-scale throughput, optimizing cluster state performance, thread pools, and bulk indexing requests for maximum efficiency. * Cross-Functional Influence: Collaborate cross-functionally with Elastic Product Management and Core Engineering to influence the Elasticsearch codebase roadmap, surface edge-case bugs, and drive feature enhancement requests based on enterprise field realities. * Community & IP Development: Capture, formalize, and publish global best practices, reference architectures, and reusable solution patterns across the broader Elasticsearch and open-source engineering communities. * Culture of Excellence: Drive internal enablement initiatives, mentor senior engineers, and cultivate a culture of continuous technical excellence and deep mastery of Elasticsearch internals. WHAT YOU BRING * 8+ years as a Principal Architect, Lead Engineer, or Senior Systems Consultant with recognized, deep technical expertise specifically focused on Elasticsearch at a massive scale. * Elasticsearch Internals Mastery: Comprehensive understanding of distributed systems theory as it applies to Elasticsearch, including consensus protocols, internal node roles (master, data, ingest, machine learning), Apache Lucene indexing mechanics, and cluster state management. * AI-Powered Search Expertise: Proven track record of deploying production-grade semantic search solutions using Elasticsearch’s native ML nodes, dense/sparse vector fields, and integrations with modern NLP frameworks and LLM orchestration tools. * Cloud-Native Infrastructure: Advanced knowledge of orchestrating massive Elasticsearch workloads across cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) using cloud-native patterns, Docker, and Terraform. * Polyglot Coding: Strong proficiency in multiple programming languages (e.g., Java, Python, Go) with extensive experience utilizing official Elasticsearch client libraries and building custom plugins. * Elite Communication: Exceptional presentation and storytelling skills, with verified experience commanding a room of executive stakeholders to align technical Elasticsearch roadmaps with core business strategy. * Education: Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field, or equivalent deep industry experience. * Global Mindset: Comfortable working effectively across highly distributed, global teams and traveling to client sites as required for strategic architectural engagements.
