Résumé du poste

Runpod, the AI Developer Cloud, is seeking a systems-focused Cloud Infrastructure Security Engineer. This role protects multitenant GPU bare-metal and virtualized environments, ensuring isolation, integrity, and security across the stack.

You will work at the OS and hypervisor level, hunting for container and virtualization breakouts with an attackers mindset, and writing low-level code in C, Go, or Rust to patch weaknesses. Remote-first team.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of infrastructure or systems-level security engineering.
• Extensive knowledge of Linux kernel internals (cgroups, namespaces, eBPF, SELinux/AppArmor).
• Deep understanding of virtualization technologies (KVM, QEMU) and workload/network isolation techniques in multitenant environments.
• Strong systems-level programming skills in C, Go, Rust, or Python.

Responsabilités

• Systems Isolation: Design and implement robust workload and network isolation architectures for RunPod's multitenant GPU bare-metal and virtualized environments.
• Kernel & Container Security: Harden Linux kernel configurations, container runtimes (e.g., Docker, containerd), and orchestration layers (e.g., Kubernetes) against breakouts.
• Infrastructure Threat Modeling: Conduct deep-dive security assessments and penetration testing targeting hypervisor, network stack, and hardware interfaces.
• Active Defense: Write code (C, Go, or Rust) to implement custom security controls, telemetry, and fixes at OS and infrastructure level.
• Hardware Security: Evaluate and mitigate security considerations specific to GPU architecture, PCIe pass-through, and shared memory spaces.
