Zachary Piper Solutions is seeking an experienced Elastic Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to support a high-visibility federal engagement focused on observability, platform reliability, and security operations across classified environments. This position will support mission-critical Elastic infrastructure deployments at either Hanscom AFB, MA or Langley AFB, VA. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise supporting enterprise Elastic Stack environments, Kubernetes-based deployments, and production SRE operations within secure or regulated infrastructure environments.

Key Responsibilities: * Operate, maintain, and optimize large-scale Elastic Stack environments supporting logging, search, observability, and telemetry operations. * Ensure platform reliability, uptime, scalability, and performance across production mission systems. * Manage Kubernetes-based Elastic deployments, including ECK operator environments.

* Develop and maintain automation for deployment workflows, monitoring, alerting, and incident response processes. * Integrate Elastic infrastructure with SIEM and security tooling including Splunk, EDR platforms, and telemetry systems. * Troubleshoot complex issues across distributed systems, infrastructure, and application environments.

* Implement and support observability frameworks including logging, metrics, tracing, and monitoring solutions. * Support CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code initiatives within DevOps environments. * Maintain operational runbooks, escalation procedures, and technical documentation.

* Participate in on-call support rotations and incident response activities. Qualifications : * 5+ years of experience supporting Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or infrastructure operations environments. * Strong hands-on experience with Elastic Stack in enterprise production environments.

* Advanced Kubernetes experience, including ECK operator deployments. * Strong Linux/Unix administration and networking fundamentals. * Experience supporting observability, telemetry, logging, and monitoring platforms.

* Experience working within secure, classified, federal, or highly regulated environments. * Ability to work onsite at Hanscom AFB (MA) or Langley AFB (VA). Nice-to-Haves: * Elastic certifications including Elastic Engineer, Security, or Observability.

* Experience with Terraform, Ansible, and CI/CD pipeline automation. * Exposure to SIEM and EDR technologies including Splunk, CrowdStrike, or Trellix. * Experience supporting GovCloud, DoD, or federal infrastructure environments.

* Prior experience supporting distributed logging or telemetry platforms. Soft Skills: * Strong incident response and operational troubleshooting mindset. * Ability to remain calm and effective during production outages or high-pressure situations.

* Strong collaboration skills across security, infrastructure, DevOps, and operations teams. * Excellent communication skills for escalation and operational coordination environments. * Self-sufficient and capable of operating independently within classified environments.

Compensation & Benefits * Target compensation: $180,000 - $200,000 annually. * Long-term federal engagement supporting mission-critical infrastructure initiatives. * Opportunity to support advanced observability and security operations within classified environments.
