About the job

Requirements
  • Strong Kubernetes experience, with the technical depth to investigate and resolve issues directly.
  • Experience auditing firewall policies and network access controls.
  • Experience conducting or coordinating penetration testing.
  • Comfort maintaining and operating security tooling and environments on an ongoing basis.
  • Strong written communication skills, given the solo nature of the role.
  • Experience operating as the sole security engineer, or within a small security team.
Responsibilities
  • Audit firewall policies and network access controls across the estate.
  • Conduct internal penetration testing, working alongside external penetration testing partners.
  • Build a penetration testing strategy and cadence that improves accuracy and coverage over time.
  • Identify and help remediate security gaps found through testing and audit.
  • Build and maintain a deep, working understanding of the production environment, including Kubernetes clusters, network architecture and access controls.
  • Investigate technical issues directly and dig into root cause, rather than relying on reported findings alone.
  • Support the VP of Information Security on controls testing across the Production Estate.
  • Own and maintain single sign-on and systems access configuration.
  • Build and maintain penetration testing environments, including small Kubernetes clusters as needed.
  • Maintain the tooling and infrastructure supporting security testing.
  • Work proactively across engineering teams to avoid becoming a single point of knowledge or failure.
  • Document processes, findings and configurations so knowledge is shared, not siloed.
  • Partner with the Head of Security Operations on shared governance, risk reporting and security testing.
Desired Qualifications
  • Network engineering experience or strong networking fundamentals.
  • Background in data centre environments, or related infrastructure environments.
  • Experience with AI security specifically.
  • Exposure to compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001 or SOC 2, and an understanding of how technical controls map to audit evidence.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Feb. 24, 2026 launch created a $1.3 billion platform with rolled-in Ori investors.
  • Radiant claims direct access to Brookfield's $100 billion AI infrastructure program.
  • Ori Global AI Cloud keeps on-demand bare metal, GPU instances, and fine-tuning offerings live.

What critics are saying

  • Radiant depends on Brookfield funding and contract wins to justify its capital-intensive model.
  • NVIDIA chip supply concentration and rapid obsolescence can strand Radiant's data-center investments.
  • Execution failure on sovereign contracts or deployment delays destroys the utility-scale thesis entirely.

What makes Radiant unique

  • Feb. 24, 2026 merger fused Ori software with Brookfield-powered infrastructure.
  • Radiant pairs powered land, long-term capital, and sovereign-cloud software under one operator.
  • NVIDIA DSX, Blackwell, and GB200 NVL72 make Radiant a purpose-built AI factory platform.
