Staff Electrical Operator

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. 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. 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. We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply! The Data Center Operations Team The Data Center Operations team keeps live, mission-critical facilities running while the buildings around them are still being built. Examples Of Key Problems The Team Is Working On Operate 480V to 15kV+ electrical distribution, generators, switchgear, and UPS systems in facilities running live AI training workloads where downtime is not an option. Run safe switching, lockout/tagout, and energization procedures in buildings where construction, commissioning, and production operations overlap on the same electrical systems. Build the operating procedures, emergency response playbooks, and operator training programs for facilities that are scaling faster than any standard runbook covers. Drive incident response and root-cause analysis on electrical events so the same failure never takes capacity offline twice. Role Scope Own day-to-day operation and troubleshooting of medium and high-voltage electrical distribution, including switchgear, generators, UPS systems, and associated protection and controls, in live data center environments. Run switching operations, lockout/tagout, and energization work to NFPA 70E and arc flash standards, with documentation rigorous enough to stand up to a safety audit. Lead electrical incident response on shift and on call, isolating faults, restoring power, and producing root‑cause reports that change how the facility is operated. Build and maintain SOPs, MOPs, and EOPs for electrical systems, and keep them accurate as new capacity comes online. Drive alarm monitoring and response through BMS and EPMS platforms, tuning thresholds and escalation paths so real problems surface before they become outages. Train and mentor junior operators to the point where they can run switching and response procedures without you in the room. 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 spent years operating and troubleshooting 480V to 15kV+ electrical distribution equipment hands‑on in live hyperscale or large colocation data centers. You have deep working experience with generators, medium‑voltage switchgear, UPS systems, and the BMS/EPMS platforms that monitor them. You know NFPA 70E, arc flash boundaries, and lockout/tagout procedures well enough to write them, enforce them, and catch a shortcut before it becomes an incident. You have a track record of shift‑based or on‑call critical facility operations, and you've been the person who restores power at 3am. You operate independently. Given a new facility with incomplete documentation, you build the procedures rather than wait for them. You've trained junior operators and can raise a team's standard, not just your own output. You're comfortable running live operations inside an active build environment where construction and commissioning share the floor with production load. Bonus: NETA certification, journeyman or master electrician license, or commissioning experience on greenfield data center electrical systems. We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
