Supplier Quality Engineer, Mechanical

Fluidstack Supply Chain Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on:

• Supply compute at a scale of 10s to 100s of GWs, the largest build out of compute in history. Qualify and dual-source across every critical equipment category, with lead-time and capacity thresholds tied directly to the forward build pipeline.
• Make supply chain the reason we build faster than anyone. Our modular build redefines speed in this industry, and it lives or dies on supply chain. Keep procurement permanently off the critical path so schedule compression stays our advantage, not our constraint.
• Build the most accurate supply chain prediction modeling that exists. Use the frontier of AI to forecast lead times, demand, and disruption with a precision the industry has never had, and turn that foresight into a structural edge.

Role Scope

• Own supplier quality for mechanical equipment: CDUs, chillers, pumps, and piping packages from qualification through delivery.
• Run supplier audits and production readiness reviews before award, and source inspections before anything ships.
• Set the inspection and test plans suppliers build to, including factory acceptance test witness points.
• Drive root cause and corrective action on quality escapes, and verify the fix at the supplier floor, not on paper.

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 done supplier quality for mechanical or HVAC equipment manufacturers, on their floors.
• You've witnessed factory acceptance tests and failed one when it deserved to fail.
• You write inspection plans from drawings and specs, not from templates.
• Your corrective actions close with evidence, and repeat escapes from your suppliers are rare.
• Bonus: Liquid cooling equipment. ASME and ISO quality systems. Welding and brazing inspection. PPAP or APQP experience.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
