Executive Protection Operator

About the Team

The Corporate Security (CorpSec) team at the company is dedicated to ensuring the safety and security of our people and facilities. We provide intelligence-driven security programs that enable the company teams to focus on advancing artificial intelligence responsibly and securely.

About the Role

As an Executive Protection Operator, you will play a crucial role in safeguarding the well-being of the company executives and key employees. Your responsibilities will encompass providing security support during travel, events, and, when necessary, day-to-day operations. You will need to have proficiency in firearms handling and the legal authority to carry a firearm in the United States. You are a seasoned, collaborative security professional with a deep understanding of executive protection principles and a proven ability to navigate complex, dynamic security situations with discretion and tact.

This position is based in our San Francisco HQ. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week, though this role is expected to have a flexible schedule that aligns with the travel and operational needs of the executives you support. We offer relocation assistance to new employees.

In this role, you will:

• Plan, coordinate, and execute secure transportation and protective operations for executives and key employees.

• Conduct advance work, threat assessments, and route planning to mitigate security risks in both domestic and international environments.

• Coordinate with internal stakeholders, protective intelligence, law enforcement, and vetted vendors to maintain an agile, credible protective posture.

• Provide immediate response and crisis management during emergencies while preserving discretion and composure.

• Support residential and travel security assessments and contribute to SOP development and continuous improvement.

• Support the broader CorpSec mission—including internal and external event security and special projects—with a "no job too small" attitude.

• Maintain current LEOSA / HR218 authority and the legal ability to carry a concealed firearm throughout the United States in support of executive protection operations.

• Maintain a valid U.S. passport and readiness to travel internationally on short notice, including assignments in foreign and potentially hostile environments.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have operational executive protection experience supporting C-suite executives, senior government officials, or other high-profile principals.

• Have completed a recognized Executive Protection training program or served five or more years in a dignitary protection assignment with a federal, state, or local law enforcement agency.

• Bring tactical medical training and demonstrated decision-making ability under pressure.

• Understand foreign intelligence targeting tactics and tradecraft and have experience with mitigation strategies and counter-surveillance operations.

• Demonstrate strong communication skills, discretion, and professionalism when working with senior leaders and external partners.

• Are a team player who embraces a “no job too small” mindset and is willing to support a wide range of security operations.

• Are willing to obtain California-specific licensing, including BSIS and related certifications, through company-supported training pathways.
