About the role

Founded on the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not, this team is actively developing technologies with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars. The organization is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe—developing the full stack from supercomputers to models to a suite of applications—creating a flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and real-world use shapes what gets built next. We are seeking an Industrial Pipefitter to support the buildout of high-performance data centers. In this hands-on role, you will install large industrial piping systems and keep construction moving on next-generation AI supercomputing infrastructure. You will work closely with mechanical, welding, structural, electrical, and operations teams to fit, hang, and test pipe from construction through turnover. This is a full-time, onsite role with significant travel to data center sites.

Responsibilities

  • Install large-bore industrial piping (process, mechanical, utility, and related systems): measure, cut, bevel, fit, hang, and make up joints per drawings and specs.
  • Perform flange, groove, thread, and welded-joint fit-up; align pipe, set gaps, and prep joints for the welding crew.
  • Install valves, fittings, hangers, supports, strut, and anchors; hang pipe racks and supports plumb and on grade.
  • Read isometric, spool, and arrangement drawings; field-route as directed and flag drawing conflicts before install.
  • Support hydro, pneumatic, and service tests: install blinds and test packs, walk lines, and repair leaks.
  • Stage, move, and inventory pipe, valves, hangers, insulation, tools, and equipment; keep laydown yards and mechanical rooms orderly.
  • Assist with equipment set for pumps, cooling towers, air handlers, and related mechanical gear, including bolt-up of suction and discharge piping.
  • Open and close work areas: protection, debris removal, scrap segregation, and end-of-shift reset so the next crew can start immediately.
  • Follow LOTO, PPE, and permit rules; do not work on live systems without authorization.
  • Report damaged material, unsafe conditions, and drawing conflicts immediately.
  • Support punch-list work and cleanup through system turnover.

Requirements

  • 3+ years installing large industrial or commercial piping OR completion of a recognized pipefitter apprenticeship OR equivalent military experience.
  • Experience fitting and installing welded, flanged, grooved, and/or threaded pipe, including hangers and supports.
  • Willingness to work at heights, outdoors, and on a changing data center construction site.
  • Ability to use pipefitting hand tools, power tools, bevelers, and material-handling equipment safely.
  • Strong safety mindset and willingness to follow site procedures, including LOTO and permits.
  • Willingness to work extended hours, nights, and weekends during critical construction windows.
  • Prior experience on data center, industrial, or heavy-civil construction sites.
  • Experience on large-bore welded industrial piping (carbon and/or stainless) and equipment connections (pumps, air handlers, cooling towers, skids).
  • Ability to read isometric, spool, and P&ID drawings.
  • UA, NCCER, or equivalent pipefitter credential.
  • OSHA 10 or equivalent training.
  • Familiarity with hot-work, hydrotest, and flange-management practices.
  • High school diploma or equivalency certificate.
  • Ability to travel extensively to data center construction sites and remain onsite during peak construction phases.
