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. \nWe'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.\nWe hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!\nHow We Operate\nBe a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.\n\nInsane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.\n\nReason from first principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.\n\nLove 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.\n\nBuild something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.\n\nRole Scope\nOwn sourcing and buying for every critical equipment category behind a 10GW build: switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS, chillers, CDUs, and the long-lead gear that sets the schedule.\n\nLock vendor capacity and lead times against the forward build pipeline.\n\nHold vendors to their production ramps by tracking every commitment from PO to delivery and acting the day a ship date slips.\n\nBuild the category team: hire category leads and buyers, define the sourcing playbook, and own the results.\n\nWork with Design, Construction, and Manufacturing so equipment lands before the schedule needs it and procurement never sits on the critical path.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\nThe 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.\nYou've personally owned $300M+ in direct materials spend on physical equipment, and you can walk through the numbers from memory.\n\nYou've held vendors to production ramp commitments, and you can name the time a supplier slipped and what you did that week.\n\nYou've built a category or sourcing team: hired the people, set the process, and handed off categories that kept delivering.\n\nYou've worked electrical and mechanical equipment lead times hands-on, down to the factory slot and the test date.\n\nYou've scaled supply at a company going from prototype to volume, where the playbook didn't exist and you wrote it.\n\nYou've made sourcing calls on incomplete data, owned the ones that went wrong, and can say what you changed after.\n\nBonus: Data center or utility-scale electrical equipment. Fast-scaling hardware: EV, aerospace, energy storage. Dual-sourcing a critical category through a supply shock. Supplier quality and factory acceptance testing programs. Modular or offsite construction supply chains.\n\nWe are committed to pay equity and transparency.\nFluidstack is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer.
