About Fluidstack
Technology is the most important tool humans have found for improving the human condition, but it is not a default good. It is a lever for ideology.
Today the most powerful technology in history is being built: machines that solve problems better than humans can. The most important mission of our generation is to imbue AI with democratic values: error-correcting institutions, freedom of speech, individual liberties. AI trains and runs on massive compute clusters. Whichever ideology builds the infrastructure the fastest is the ideology that will endure. Democracy is delicate and won't survive this technology by default.
We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!
How We Operate
Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.
Insane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
Reason from first principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.
Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.
Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.
The Security Team
Examples of key problems the team is working on
You're securing the frontier of AI. The model weights training on our infrastructure are the most valuable and most targeted artifacts in technology, and we're standing up the compute to hold them faster than anyone ever has. A breach isn't a leak, it's the frontier walking out the door.
Build the entire security program from scratch. Most leaders inherit someone else's system and spend a career patching it. Here you own it end to end, bare metal to boardroom, as we scale across continents.
The industry's playbook was written for one building at a time. Vendor-managed appliances, manual process, and standards that assume a security team walks the floor. None of that survives contact with what we're building, so we build what should exist rather than buying what does.
Your threat surface is measured in gigawatts. The customers running on our infrastructure are building the most consequential technology in human history, and being responsible for the physical and logical security of that work makes everything else feel small.
Role Scope
Build the infrastructure as code that stands up a site's entire security platform, so bringing on a campus is a pipeline run rather than a project.
Own CI/CD and the release path for the security stack, so every change reaches production tested, versioned, and reversible.
Automate the remediation the team would otherwise do by hand, and hold the line that anything done twice becomes code.
Build the package and patch pipeline that keeps a growing fleet current without a person touching a single host.
Get the automation in place ahead of the platform it serves, so on-call stays something a small team can carry as campuses multiply.
What We're Looking For
The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
You've built infrastructure as code that other people deploy from, and the systems that exist because your pipeline created them outnumber the ones someone built by following a runbook.
You've automated yourself out of work you used to do by hand, and you can name what the team stopped doing as a result.
You've owned CI/CD for infrastructure rather than applications, including how a bad change gets caught and rolled back.
You've automated Windows fleets, where the tooling is thinner and the ecosystem less forgiving than it is on Linux.
You've kept an on-call rotation survivable by removing causes rather than by writing more runbooks.
You write production code and you review other people's.
You've built tooling for people who aren't engineers, and they actually use it instead of working around it.
Bonus: Infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible, PowerShell DSC). CI/CD for infrastructure (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI). Windows package and patch automation (Chocolatey, WSUS, Intune). Observability and alerting (Prometheus, Grafana). Physical security or building systems platforms (Genetec Security Center, access control, IoT device fleets).
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
