Infrastructure Engineer, Security

Thinking Machines Lab is on a mission to empower humanity through advancing collaborative general intelligence. They are seeking an infrastructure engineer to own and evolve the security infrastructure that supports their foundation models, ensuring systems are secure, reliable, and scalable while collaborating closely with research and product teams.

Responsibilities:

• 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 identity, least-privilege IAM, and secrets management
• Build secure platforms for data ingestion, processing, and curation: classification, encryption, access controls, and safe sharing patterns across teams
• Write threat models and review designs with researchers and engineers to help them ship features and experiments in a safe, scalable way
• Automate security checks and build guardrails: policy-as-code, secure infrastructure baselines, validation in CI/CD, and tools that make the secure path the easiest one
