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!

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.

- 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

- Track the nation-state and advanced criminal actors most likely to target frontier AI infrastructure, and turn their tooling, infrastructure patterns, and tradecraft into intelligence that changes what the program detects and hunts for.

- Build and run the pipelines that collect, enrich, and correlate indicators, then push them into the detection and agentic triage stack so intelligence becomes operational instantly.

- Drive intelligence-led hunts across enterprise, cloud, identity, data center IT, and OT telemetry, and convert findings into high-fidelity detections authored as code.

- Perform hands-on malware, phishing-infrastructure, and attacker-tooling analysis to extract indicators, TTPs, and attribution signals that feed detection engineering and incident response in near real time.

- Curate the inbound intelligence pipeline across commercial feeds, open source, government, and peer relationships, and prioritize what actually matters for the program's threat model.

- Build and maintain the external intelligence-sharing relationships ( …
