Fluidstack · Austin, TX · 1 mo ago
On-siteManufacturing$169k–$208k/yrFull-time

Fluidstack exists to make humanity more free by accelerating the deployment of frontier AI compute infrastructure. We rethink every layer of the stack—from power acquisition and data center design to operations—with speed and scale as our key differentiators. Join us in 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. 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. Spend your time on something that matters to the world.

About the role

Engineer the automation and equipment inside the lines: cells, fixtures, and machines specified, bought, and proven. Own equipment from URS through SAT: vendor selection, FAT, install, and handoff to production. Integrate equipment into the line's controls and data: cycle counts, faults, and OEE flowing automatically. Own uptime and cycle-time gains after handoff, not thrown over the wall.

What We're Looking For

  • You've specified and launched production equipment or automation cells.
  • You've run FATs that caught what mattered before shipment.
  • You're hands-on at the machine: sensors, drives, and program logic.
  • You've integrated equipment data into OEE or MES reporting.
  • You close out installs completely: training, spares, and documentation.
  • Bonus: PLC programming. Robotics integration. Machine safety standards. CMMS and spares strategy.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
