Job Summary

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.

Role Scope
  • Build and own the financial models behind multi-billion-dollar data center projects from unit economics per megawatt to full project finance and returns analysis.

  • Support capital raises across equity and project debt by preparing the models materials and diligence responses lenders and investors require to underwrite gigawatt-scale builds.

  • Partner with the commercial and development teams to price deals stress-test assumptions and pressure-check the economics of leases colocation and power commitments before they are signed.

  • Build the forecasting and scenario analysis that ties the forward build pipeline to capital needs so the company always knows its runway and funding requirements as it scales.

  • Turn financial analysis into clear recommendations for the CEO and CFO on where to deploy capital and which deals clear the return threshold.

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 built financial and operating models from scratch that leadership actually used to make capital allocation or investment decisions.

  • Youve worked on capital raises project finance or M&A where your analysis directly supported a transaction that closed.

  • Youve moved fast on ambiguous problems with incomplete data delivering a defensible number under a deadline rather than waiting for perfect inputs.

  • You catch flawed assumptions in a model before they reach a decision-maker and you can explain in one sentence why a deal does or does not pencil.

  • You write and present analysis clearly enough that a non-finance executive can act on it without a follow-up meeting.

  • Youve owned a recurring financial process (forecast board reporting scenario analysis) and made it faster and sharper each cycle.

  • Bonus: Investment banking private equity or infrastructure finance background. Project finance or debt structuring experience. Data center energy or real assets exposure. Advanced modeling in Python or SQL.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
