About Fluidstack

We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.

We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI.

We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!

How We Operate

Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.

Insane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

Reason from first principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.

Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.

Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.

Role Scope

Engineer the automation and equipment inside the lines: cells, fixtures, and machines specified, bought, and proven.

Own equipment from URS through SAT: vendor selection, FAT, install, and handoff to production.

Integrate equipment into the line's controls and data: cycle counts, faults, and OEE flowing automatically.

Own uptime and cycle-time gains after handoff, not thrown over the wall.

What We're Looking For

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.

You've specified and launched production equipment or automation cells.

You've run FATs that caught what mattered before shipment.

You're hands-on at the machine: sensors, drives, and program logic.

You've integrated equipment data into OEE or MES reporting.

You close out installs completely: training, spares, and documentation.

Bonus: PLC programming. Robotics integration. Machine safety standards. CMMS and spares strategy.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
