Infrastructure Engineer, Security

Thinking Machines Lab's mission is to empower humanity through advancing collaborative general intelligence. We're building a future where everyone has access to the knowledge and tools to make AI work for their unique needs and goals. We are scientists, engineers, and builders who’ve created some of the most widely used AI products, including ChatGPT and Character.ai, open-weights models like Mistral, as well as popular open source projects like PyTorch, OpenAI Gym, Fairseq, and Segment Anything. About the Role We’re looking for an infrastructure engineer to own and evolve the security infrastructure that underpins our foundation models. In this role, you’ll work across compute, storage, networking, and data platforms, making sure our systems are secure, reliable, and built to scale. You’ll shape controls, architecture, and tooling so that security is part of how the platform works by default. You’ll partner closely with research and product teams, enabling them to move quickly while keeping our models, data, and environments protected. Note: This is an "evergreen role" that we keep open on an on-going basis to express interest. We receive many applications, and there may not always be an immediate role that aligns perfectly with your experience and skills. Still, we encourage you to apply. We continuously review applications and reach out to applicants as new opportunities open. You are welcome to reapply if you get more experience, but please avoid applying more than once every 6 months. You may also find that we put up postings for singular roles for separate, project or team specific needs. In those cases, you're welcome to apply directly in addition to an evergreen role. What You’ll Do Architect security patterns for platforms and services, including network segmentation, service-to-service authentication, RBAC, and policy enforcement in Kubernetes and cloud environments. Manage identity, access, and secrets for humans and services: workload and cross-cloud id
