Regional Site Security Lead, Deployment & Ops

We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.
We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI.
We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!

About the Role

You'll own physical security across regional FluidStack sites, including data centers and related facilities: multiple sites, one accountable leader. From day-to-day operations to incident response to the people on the ground at every facility, the security posture of the region runs through you. This role is built for a seasoned operator who can lead at a regional level without losing the on-site instinct: someone who's just as effective walking a perimeter at 2 AM as they are briefing executives on regional risk. You'll be the senior security presence our customers, our internal teams, and our guard force look to.

Responsibilities:

• Own physical security operations across a FluidStack region: every site, every shift, accountable end-to-end for posture, performance, and incidents

• Lead the regional security team, including site-level security personnel and contract guard force, setting the standard for discipline, professionalism, and execution across every facility

• Serve as the senior security presence for customer commitments in the region: audits, site visits, contractual obligations, and the relationships that depend on getting them right

• Drive consistency across the cluster by standardizing post orders, SOPs, access management, and incident response procedures, while tailoring execution to the realities of each site

• Partner with site operations, facilities, construction, and vendor teams to integrate security into every phase of the cluster's growth, from new builds to steady-state operations

Basic Qualifications:

• 8+ years of physical security experience, with at least 3 years in a multi-site leadership role

• Direct experience managing contract guard forces, including post order development, performance management, and vendor accountability

• Strong working knowledge of Electronic Security Systems: ACS, VMS, intrusion detection, and how they integrate

• Demonstrated ability to lead people across distributed sites: direct reports, contractors, and cross-functional partners

• Comfortable owning incident response end-to-end, from initial call through investigation and reporting

• Willing to live in or relocate to West Texas, and travel across the regional cluster as the primary mode of work

Preferred Qualifications:

• Prior experience in data center, critical infrastructure, or other 24/7 high-availability environments

• Experience supporting customer audits or third-party security assessments

• Background in construction-phase security or new site activation

• Industry credentials such as ASIS CPP, PSP, or PCI

• Familiarity with the cyber side of physical security: network considerations for ACS/VMS, device hardening, supply chain awareness

Salary & Benefits

• Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).

• Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.

• Health, dental, and vision insurance.

• Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.

The base salary range for this position is $175,000 - $250,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location.
