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!
About the Role
We are seeking a hands-on Electrical Field Engineer to support the commissioning, operation, and maintenance of critical electrical infrastructure across our hyperscale AI data center campuses. This is a field-first role — you will be on the floor, in the gear, and directly responsible for keeping our electrical systems running at the reliability levels that AI infrastructure demands. In addition to day-to-day operational responsibilities, this role carries engineering accountability for new construction support, capacity upgrades, site audits, and design review — providing the technical depth needed to both operate and improve the infrastructure you own.
The ideal candidate has come up through electrical systems in mission-critical environments, is equally comfortable in a switchgear lineup and a design review meeting, and takes personal ownership of the reliability of everything connected to their single-line.
Responsibilities
Own day-to-day operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of high and medium voltage electrical systems including utility feeds, transformers, switchgear, generators, ATS/STS, UPS, PDUs, RPPs, and busway distribution.
Develop, review, and execute MOPs, EOPs, and AOPs for planned and emergency electrical maintenance events; manage and coordinate third-party contractors and vendors performing work on site.
Monitor EPMS and BMS platforms for electrical system performance, alarm response, and capacity tracking; maintain accurate as-built documentation and one-line diagrams following system modifications.
Perform design and submittal reviews for new data centers and own engineering solutions for existing facility upgrades that add capacity, improve availability, and increase efficiency.
Troubleshoot electrical faults and equipment failures; conduct formal Root Cause Analysis (RCA), lead engineering site audits, and produce risk reports with recommended mitigations and remediation plans.
