About this role

Who are We? Field AI is transforming how robots interact with the real world. We are building risk-aware, reliable, and field-ready AI systems that address the most complex challenges in robotics, unlocking the full potential of embodied intelligence. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-based architectures, and are charting a new course, with already-globally-deployed solutions delivering real-world results and rapidly improving models through real-field applications.

About the Job We're hiring a Director of IT, Infrastructure & Security to own Field AI's IT operations, corporate and cloud security, and compliance program end-to-end. You'll inherit a working program, SOC 2 Type II is in place, CMMC is being run in partnership with our MSP, and core IT systems are operational. Your charter is to keep it running well, mature it where it matters most, and serve as the senior voice on IT and security risk to the executive team. This person must be highly comfortable operating in an environment where Google Workspace and Slack, Github nad Jira are core IT and identity platforms, and where Linux/Ubuntu is the primary operating system across much of the company’s technical environment. We are looking for someone who has supported technical organizations where Linux-based systems are the norm, not an edge case. This role is for someone who likes to operate close to the work. You will lead a small, capable IT team, manage our MSP relationships, and partner with Engineering, Legal, Sales, and Executive leadership to keep Field AI secure, compliant, and productive. Success here requires judgment, urgency, and practicality: knowing which controls matter, building cross-functional alignment, and shipping durable solutions without depending on large teams, heavy process, or perfect conditions.
