Security Lead, Deployment & Ops

About Fluidstack

We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants.

There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.

We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI.

We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!

• Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.

• Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

• 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.

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.

• 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.

• Own end-to-end physical security across a portfolio of greenfield data center campuses, from ground break through commissioning into steady-state operations.

• Define and enforce post orders for contract guard services, holding the force to a high bar and managing the vendor strategically.

• Partner with engineering teams and trades to drive on-schedule deployment of physical security systems, including ESS programming and commissioning.

• Carry Fluidstack's security commitments to customers, hitting every contractual milestone.

• Design and execute site-specific strategies for secure material movement and protection of critical assets through deployment and operations.

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 lived the full data center security lifecycle from ground break to go-live, and you speak construction and operations fluently.

• You’re deeply technical on Electronic Security Systems: programming, commissioning, door hardware validation, not just oversight.

• You audit guard force compliance against post orders and manage the vendor to a high standard.

• You plan and execute secure material moves and critical-asset protection on active build sites.

• You’re energized by the pace of getting things built and comfortable owning security when it touches everything on site.

• Bonus: Hyperscale greenfield builds. ESS deployment and commissioning struction-phase security. Customer-facing security commitments.

• Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).

• Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.

• Health, dental, and vision insurance.

• Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.

The base salary range for this position is $220,000 - $300,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. This range represents our good faith…
