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.

The Operations Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Operate at the scale of a nation, not a building. The fleet you run will draw more power than some countries, on the way to 100 GW.

• Fly the plane while it's being built. Sites come online in pieces, and you keep the live ones running flawlessly while construction continues around them.

• Write the playbook, don't inherit it. No prior operations org has run at this speed and scale, so the standards you set become the standard.

Role Scope

• Own emergency preparedness end to end: pre-incident response planning and training with local Authorities Having Jurisdiction, the facility Emergency Response Teams, and readiness for fire and medical events at every scale.

• Lead facility fire risk assessments and partner with Health and Safety on hazardous materials code compliance, covering Maximum Allowable Quantities, non-compatibles, and other AHJ storage and use requirements.

• Own the fire and life safety program: budget, third-party consultant relationships, contracted Inspection, Testing and Maintenance with quality assurance review of every deliverable, and the Hot Work and Impairment programs.

• Partner with Design and Delivery on plan review and commissioning of fire and life safety systems so protection is engineered in at the design stage, not bolted on after handover.

• Lead incident investigations using 5-Why and fault tree analysis, drive corrective and preventive actions to closure, and serve as site liaison to OSHA and state-plan agencies such as ADOSH for inspections, citations, and record-keeping.

• Run the routine inspection program of walkthroughs and Gemba observations, sit on the Joint Health and Safety Committee, and report leading and lagging safety KPIs to leadership monthly.

• Travel 50 to 75% across the fleet. The work is in the field, not at a desk.

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 conducted plan review and commissioning of fire and life safety systems per NFPA, FM, and IFC codes and standards, working with design engineers to build safety in at the design stage, and identified gaps that resulted in properly functioning systems.

• You hold a technical Fire Protection background: signing off on complex fire and life safety systems and ensuring their operation requires it.

• You’ve conducted fire and life safety risk assessments per NFPA, FM, and IFC/IBC requirements and turned findings into safeguards that were actually built and enacted.

• You’ve managed and developed emergency response team members, fire inspectors, coordinators, or fire alarm and sprinkler technicians, and owned a program budget and vendor relationships, not just directed contractors.

• You’ve led root-cause investigations using 5-Why or fault tree analysis on a manufacturing floor and closed out the corrective actions, not just filed them.

• You’ve been the site point of contact for local or state Fire Marshals, OSHA, or state-plan (ADOSH) inspections, and closed out findings without repeat citations.

• You track leading and lagging safety metrics and use them to change what leadership prioritizes month to month.

• Bonus: NFPA Certified Fire Protection Specialist, Fire Officer, Fire Inspector, Hazardous Materials Technician, or 40-Hour HAZWOPER, held or actively pursuing. OSHA 30-Hour General Industry card. Working fluency with NFPA and IFC/IBC model codes and FM Data Sheets.
