It governs GPU telemetry, cooling, power and grid interaction as one integrated layer, so that every Firmus site can be optimised and monitored as a single system. 
AI FactoryOS Operations runs that platform in production and owns the 24/7 reliability of AI FactoryOS, Firmus AI Cloud and the platforms built on them, together with the service levels the estate is measured against.

The function builds the guarded automation, remediation and operational tooling that turn manual response into a software-defined capability, and builds and operates the shared services the estate's own operation depends on. The function works closely with the engineering teams that build the platform, supplying the production evidence that shapes what they fix and what they build next.

The Senior Platform Security Engineer owns the operational security of that platform.  The multi-tenant Kubernetes estate sits at its heart: production access, admission policy, workload identity and network policy in the live estate, and the operational security controls that keep it defensible as it grows. 
This is a hands-on senior role with deep technical expertise. This role owns security in production: runtime visibility and enforcement built with modern eBPF-based tooling, the security acceptance requirements a release has to meet before it is authorised, the authority to grant or refuse a security exception, and the deepest technical escalation for security-related platform faults.
