About the role

  • We run a multi-tenant GPU cloud for AI developers and enterprises.
  • Multi-tenant GPUs, high-speed networking, and untrusted customer workloads introduce security challenges that don't have off-the-shelf answers.
  • You'll operate with wide latitude, shaping how isolation, detection, and trust are built into the system from day one.

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end security architecture for multi-tenant Kubernetes GPU clusters
  • Design tenant isolation, egress control, and network segmentation across compute, storage, and networking layers
  • Define and implement runtime security and intrusion detection for untrusted AI workloads
  • Build security primitives (identity, secrets, encryption, policy enforcement) that platform teams build on
  • Lead threat modeling and security design reviews for new platform features
  • Drive compliance readiness (SOC 2, ISO 27001) without slowing engineering velocity
  • Lead security incident response and turn incidents into systemic improvements
  • Experience building or operating runtime security and policy enforcement (Falco, Cilium, OPA, Calico, eBPF-based tools)
  • You'll define the security model, not just implement tickets
  • You'll help build a security culture at a company where speed and safety both matter

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience in security engineering for cloud-native, infrastructure, or distributed systems
  • Deep, hands-on expertise in Kubernetes security (RBAC, PSA, network policies, admission controllers)
  • Strong understanding of cloud security primitives in AWS, GCP, or Azure
  • Practical experience with secrets management and key systems (Vault, cloud KMS)
  • Experience partnering deeply with platform, infra, and SRE teams

Nice to have

  • GPU isolation and virtualization security (MIG, SR-IOV)
  • InfiniBand, RDMA, or high-performance networking
  • HPC or large-scale multi-tenant compute platforms
  • Security for AI/ML systems or data-intensive workloads
  • Incident response leadership or red team experience
  • Security certifications (CKS, OSCP, CISSP)
  • Open-source contributions in security or cloud infrastructure

Skills

  • Zettabyte is scaling a shared, high-performance AI compute platform in a space where traditional cloud security models break down.

Compensation

  • Competitive salary - commensurate with your experience and aligned with industry standards

Benefits

  • Meaningful equity - be part of the upside as we build a category-defining company.
