Senior Structural Engineer, Modular Systems & Skids

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!

• 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.

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Lead the design development and execution of 10s to 100s of GWs of data centers this decade.

• Drive the next generation of liquid cooling and electrical distribution systems.

• Develop and scale first-of-a-kind modular data centers.

• Influence behind-the-meter designs and planning for multi-GW campuses.

• Lead structural engineering on custom modular systems across a multi-site portfolio from early design through factory production delivery and site installation.

• Design and engineer structural steel frameworks and modular systems to project requirements and industry standards.

• Perform static dynamic and seismic calculations for modular frames stacking configurations lifting and rigging transport load cases and foundation interface connections (ETABS RISA RAM).

• Manage external structural consultants and modular manufacturers and coordinate with civil and MEP engineers.

• Drive technical alignment across fabricators GCs and project teams from design through site installation.

• Develop modular structural standards and connection details that repeat across the productized build.

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 structural design of modular prefabricated or skid-based systems owning calculations through fabrication and installation.

• You run static dynamic and seismic analysis for modular frames transport and lifting cases in ETABS RISA or RAM.

• Youve managed modular manufacturers and external consultants and held them to a structural standard.

• You think in repeatable systems and connection details not one-off buildings.

• You coordinate across civil MEP fabricators and GCs to land a design that actually installs.

• Bonus: PE license. Modular or prefab data center or industrial systems. Steel connection design. Transport and rigging engineering. Productized build programs.

• 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.
