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 weve ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who dont share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.

Were 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

• Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.

• Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

• 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.

The Data Center Design Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Lead the design development and execution of 10s to 100s of GWs of data centers this decade.

• Drive the next generation of liquid cooling and electrical distribution systems.

• Develop and scale first-of-a-kind modular data centers.

• Influence behind-the-meter designs and planning for multi-GW campuses.

Role Scope

• Build and own the cost model for the modular data center product covering every assembly across structural mechanical electrical and controls scopes.

• Produce estimates at every design release so the program always knows what the product costs before it commits to build.

• Price design alternatives in days giving engineers cost facts on trade-offs like cooling configuration electrical distribution and skid versus site-built scope.

• Interrogate vendor quotes line by line with supply chain and build should-cost models for the equipment categories that dominate unit cost.

• Reconcile estimates against actuals after each build and fold the variance back into the model so the next estimate is tighter than the last.

What Were Looking For

• The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people so if you dont fit this role exactly tell us where you would.

• Youve personally estimated mechanical electrical or modular construction scopes: takeoffs unit pricing vendor pricing and a final number you stood behind when the project was won or lost.

• Youve built cost models other people could run without you in the room and they held up.

• Youve reconciled estimate versus actual and changed your assumptions when the data said you were wrong.

• Youve priced options for engineers in the middle of a design decision delivering a usable number in hours when the decision couldnt wait.

• You know where estimates fail (scope gaps labor productivity escalation freight) and youve caught those failures before they priced a bid.

• Youve worked directly with design engineers early in product development where drawings are incomplete and the estimate still has to be right about what matters.

• Bonus: Data center or mission-critical estimating. Modular or offsite manufacturing cost experience. NECA or MCAA labor units. Estimating platforms beyond spreadsheets. Early-stage R&D or product cost work.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
