About the role

As our Security Engineer, Infrastructure, you'll secure the platform layer end-to-end including cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, identity, networking, and the systems that AI runs on. This is a hands-on builder role. You'll write code, ship infrastructure, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with our infra team as a true engineering partner, not a reviewer. It's a high-ownership role for someone who wants to build secure-by-default infrastructure from first principles, and grow the function as the company scales.

What they're looking for

  • Have 5+ years of experience in security engineering, infrastructure, or SRE with hands-on experience building or securing production systems at scale
  • Are fluent in cloud security fundamentals (IAM, networking, KMS, secrets, isolation) across AWS, GCP, or Azure
  • Have designed and implemented secure systems end-to-end not just reviewed them after the fact
  • Have hands-on experience with Kubernetes, container security, and Linux systems
  • Think in terms of threat models, trust boundaries, and failure modes and can translate that into concrete controls
  • Enjoy building paved roads and guardrails using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform preferred) so the whole team moves faster safely

Rebuild how the world works, to make institutions work better for the people they serve.

Brain Co. builds AI-native operating systems for large, regulated institutions. Each system is built for a specific industry, powered by agents that push real workflows forward. Underneath it all is Atlas, our proprietary platform that keeps customers in control, secure by design, and never locked into one model.

Brain Co. is entering its next phase of production deployments on a national scale with an elite team built from Palantir, Google, Meta, and Nvidia, and a growing footprint across government, insurance, health, and financial services.

Joining now means shaping both the company and a new category of applied AI. Every project here ships to production and is expected to create measurable customer value and impact.

You'll work alongside exceptional peers on some of the hardest problems in applied AI. It’s the kind of work you'll still be proud of in ten years from now.
