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. We hire people who care deeply about this problem space.

Role Scope

  • Own day-to-day site execution for utility-scale solar and BESS projects, orchestrating EPC contractors, civil crews, electrical trades, and equipment vendors to deliver safe, on-schedule, on-budget facilities from mobilization through energization.
  • Build, maintain, and drive integrated construction schedules (Primavera P6, MS Project) across civil, structural, electrical, BESS, substation, and gen-tie scopes, and issue recovery plans the moment a critical path slips.
  • Enforce the site safety program and hold every subcontractor to a zero-incident standard, from pre-mobilization safety plans through final punch list.
  • Catch long-lead equipment risks, SCADA integration gaps, and interconnection milestone conflicts before they surface as schedule hits.
  • Track and report daily progress, earned value, cost-to-complete, and resource loading to the Project Manager, and surface procurement risks on long-lead equipment (transformers, switchgear, inverters) early enough to act on them.

What We're Looking For

  • You've managed utility-scale solar, solar-plus-storage, or high-voltage substation construction from mobilization through commercial operation, and the projects you ran came in on schedule.
  • You coordinate civil, racking, PV, electrical, and BESS scopes simultaneously without losing track of where each trade is relative to the critical path.
  • You enforce safety hard: you've written and executed site safety plans, held subcontractors to them, and managed the documentation to prove it.
  • You catch long-lead equipment risks, SCADA integration gaps, and interconnection milestone conflicts before they surface as schedule hits.
  • You build and drive integrated schedules in Primavera P6 or MS Project, and your reporting is specific enough that a project manager can act on it the same day they read it.
  • Bonus: Utility-scale BESS construction. Substation and gen-tie scope. Multi-site concurrent delivery.
  • OSHA 30.

Salary & Benefits

  • Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).
  • Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.

Compensation Range

The base salary range for this position is $130,000 - $230,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. This range represents our good faith estimate of the compensation for this role at the time of posting. Total compensation may also include equity in the form of stock options. We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
