THE ROLE
We are looking for a Information Security Manager who can rise to the complexity of protecting infrastructure at scale — someone who understands both the physical realities of securing a gigawatt-capacity compute facility and the nuanced cybersecurity challenges unique to hardware and software R&D environments. We have competitive benefit packages and an award-winning culture. Join us!
THE PERSON
The ideal candidate brings deep technical credibility — enough to earn the trust of hardware architects, silicon engineers, and security operations teams alike — and the operational discipline to build programs that work across a global footprint of campus labs, colocation facilities, and large-scale compute farms.
