Platform Security Engineer

About Fly.io

We're building a public cloud that runs on our own hardware all over the world. Customers hand us containers; we convert them into micro-VMs under hardware virtualization, each with its own kernel, on thousands of bare-metal hosts we operate ourselves. A growing share of those workloads are AI agents and inference, which means a growing share of the people attacking cloud platforms are interested in us.

Isolation is the product. The boundary between one customer's workload and the next, and between any workload and our own control plane, is a stack of things we build and run: the VMMs and their jailers, seccomp filters, host networking rules, the identity each host presents to the rest of the fleet, and the custom kernel underneath all of it. When that boundary holds, nobody notices. That's the job.
