About the role

The US principal posting for Elastic's core security team, at the top of the four regional variants. Authentication, authorisation, tenant isolation and applied cryptography inside the Elasticsearch engine, owned from architecture through production.

Security controls in a distributed data store have to be correct and fast, because every query pays for them, and shortcuts taken for speed are exactly how isolation fails. US remote, Java. Cross-company collaboration to embed security into new features from the start is part of the role.
