About Fluidstack

Technology is the most important tool humans have found for improving the human condition, but it is not a default good. It is a lever for ideology.

Today the most powerful technology in history is being built: machines that solve problems better than humans can. The most important mission of our generation is to imbue AI with democratic values: error-correcting institutions, freedom of speech, individual liberties. AI trains and runs on massive compute clusters. Whichever ideology builds the infrastructure the fastest is the ideology that will endure. Democracy is delicate and won't survive this technology by default.

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 you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.

Role Scope

Design and deploy the SCADA architecture that monitors and controls power, cooling, and mechanical systems across gigawatt-scale data center sites in real time.
Integrate telemetry from switchgear, generators, chillers, and building management systems into a unified data platform so operators see the full state of a site from a single view.
Build the tag databases, HMI screens, and alarm logic that let a lean operations team run live sites without missing a fault.
Standardize the SCADA and telemetry stack into a repeatable reference design so each new site deploys the same instrumentation and data model rather than a bespoke build.
Validate every point and signal with the controls, commissioning, and operations teams before a site goes live, so the data operators depend on is trustworthy from day one.

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 designed and commissioned SCADA or industrial control systems for critical facilities, mission-critical, industrial, or power infrastructure.
You've integrated field devices and protocols (Modbus, BACnet, DNP3, OPC UA) into a working telemetry platform rather than a pile of disconnected points.
You've built HMI and alarm systems that operators actually trusted and used under real fault conditions.
You've standardized a controls or telemetry design so it could be deployed repeatably across multiple sites instead of rebuilt each time.
You've caught instrumentation and data-quality problems during commissioning before they reached a live operations team.
You write configuration and point documentation precise enough that another engineer can maintain or extend the system without reverse-engineering it.
Bonus: Data center or high-density power environment experience. Ignition, AVEVA, or comparable SCADA platforms. Time-series data pipelines and historians. Level 4 and Level 5 commissioning exposure.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
