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 weve ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who dont share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.
Were 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 Commissioning Team
Examples of key problems the team is working on
Help stand up a Cx program for 10s to 100s of GWs of DCs this decade.
Develop plans for Cx and QA/QC for first-of-a-kind modular data center designs.
Drive development and implementation of automated L4/L5 commissioning.
Role Scope
Own controls commissioning delivery across BMS EPMS PLC and SCADA (Ignition preferred) for Fluidstacks 2026 greenfield program running L1 through L5 phases in parallel across multiple sites.
Chair the weekly site big room as Owners Representative directing general contractors designers OEMs and commissioning authorities from design-assist and factory witness testing through IST and turnover.
Build and deploy FPT and IST test scripts with commissioning agents verifying every controls system meets design intent before turnover.
Own commissioning documentation the controls budget and change orders tracking issues punch lists and final reports to closeout.
Lead controls handover to operations and mentor project engineers across sites standing up the commissioning playbooks and standards other engineers execute against on every site after.
What Were Looking For
The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people so if you dont fit this role exactly tell us where you would.
Youve led controls commissioning end to end on 50 MW data center or comparable mission-critical builds covering UPS/EPMS monitoring chilled water and HVAC systems.
You read controls architecture and L1 through L5 documentation well enough to direct the work and hold vendors and commissioning authorities accountable not to program it yourself.
Youve run point as Owners Representative chairing big-room meetings and driving GCs OEMs and commissioning authorities to a shared schedule.
Budgets change orders RFIs and submittals are habits you track without being asked and you catch schedule and cost risk before it turns into a change order fight.
Youve written FPT and IST test scripts yourself and reviewed them with commissioning agents to confirm systems meet design intent.
Bonus: Bachelors in electrical engineering mechanical engineering automation or a related field. PMP CCP NICET IV PE license or ISA CCST. ASHRAE or BCxA commissioning guideline experience. Hands-on pre-functional testing and mechanical or electrical adjustment work. Schedule-compressed delivery via prefabrication skids or modular deployment on 20 to 200 MW programs and prior hyperscale or colocation commissioning experience.
Benefits
Competitive total compensation package (cash equity).
Retirement or pension plan in line with local norms.
Health dental and vision insurance.
Generous PTO policy in line with local norms.
The base salary range for this position is $200000 - $250000 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.
