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. If that is you, please apply!

How We Operate

• Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.

• Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

• 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.

Role Scope

• Build the software side of the SCADA stack: services, integrations, and interfaces on top of site control systems.

• Ship integrations between SCADA and EPMS platforms and the company's data and automation layers.

• Own the historians and event flows: alarms, trends, and states made usable beyond the control room.

• Build tooling that makes SCADA deployments repeatable across sites.

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 built software against SCADA, EPMS, or industrial control systems.

• You've integrated OPC UA, historians, or alarm systems into modern stacks.

• You respect the control boundary: read paths and write paths engineered differently.

• You've turned a per-site manual setup into a templated deployment.

• You write production code and test against systems you can't break.

• Bonus: Ignition, Wonderware, or GE platforms. IEC 61850 or power protocols. Python or C#. Data center electrical systems.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
