This role is critical to establishing secure-by-default cloud infrastructure, scalable security controls, and resilient operational systems that support embodied AI development and deployment at scale
• Design and implement scalable cloud security architectures across AWS, GCP, Azure, and hybrid infrastructure environments
• Improve organizational security posture through implementation of secure infrastructure patterns, cloud governance controls, and automated security enforcement mechanisms
• Partner cross-functionally with Infrastructure, DevOps, AI, Robotics, and Security teams to integrate security into CI/CD pipelines, cloud platforms, and engineering workflows
• Reduce operational risk by implementing scalable monitoring, detection, vulnerability management, and incident response capabilities across cloud environments
• Establish infrastructure security standards, policies, and operational best practices supporting rapid company growth and global scale
• Team members at 1X who thrive here are builders. They move fast, own their work completely, and treat time like it’s the one thing you can’t get back - because it is. They say what they mean, finish what they start, and hold themselves to a standard before anyone has to ask. We push each other to be better, and we do it with honesty and respect
