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

• 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 youre going to spend your time spend it on something that matters to the world.

The Engineering Program Management Team

Youll join the technical program managers who run Fluidstacks infrastructure R&D programs. This role sits with the Electrical Equipment product engineering group which is designing the medium-voltage switchgear low-voltage switchboards and busway and prefabricated electrical skids and e-houses that Fluidstack will manufacture in its own factory rather than buy from the market. Your job is to drive those designs from concept to a released manufacturable product on a schedule the factory and the build can hold.

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Taking equipment that the industry buys as catalog products and re-engineering it as Fluidstack-owned designs with a bill of materials drawings and test procedures a factory line can build to.

• Running concept preliminary and critical design reviews across several equipment families in parallel and closing the actions they generate.

• Qualifying the components and sub-suppliers each design depends on with second sources before the design is frozen.

• Handing a released design to manufacturing engineering with the documentation tooling and test plan needed for the first production lot.

Role Scope

• Drive the design program. Own the integrated plan for one or more electrical equipment product lines from requirements through design release and hold the engineering team to its gates.

• Run the design reviews. Schedule and run concept preliminary and critical design reviews capture decisions and actions and close them before the next gate.

• Make it manufacturable. Bring manufacturing engineering quality and supply chain into the design early so bills of materials tolerances and test procedures are ready when the design releases.

• Manage the component supply. Track long-lead components sub-supplier qualification and second sourcing against the design schedule and escalate what will slip.

• Hold the configuration. Keep specifications drawings and change requests in one controlled set so the factory builds what engineering released.

• Report the truth. Keep program status risks and spend visible to engineering leadership without waiting to be asked.

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.

• 5 years of technical program management on electrical or electromechanical hardware that was designed and manufactured in house ideally switchgear switchboards power distribution or electrical enclosures.

• You have taken at least one hardware product from concept through design release and first production lot running the design review gates along the way.

• You understand design for manufacturing configuration management and how a bill of materials drawing package and test procedure get a design onto a factory line.

• You read electrical single-lines equipment schedules and mechanical drawings well enough to catch a problem before the engineer does.

• You have managed component suppliers and sub-supplier qualification to a design schedule.

• You write clear short status that an executive can act on and an engineer will not dispute.

• Bonus: Electrical engineering degree or PE license. UL 891 UL 1558 or IEEE C37 product certification experience. New product introduction in a low-volume high-mix factory.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
