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

  • Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.

  • Insane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

  • Reason from 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.

  • Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.

The Manufacturing Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on

  • Scale a manufacturing engine that outgrows the industry's pace. Grow capacity and capability across the full production process, so the team can take on more products and higher volume faster than anyone else builds.

  • Build the ecosystem that ships gigawatts of infrastructure a year. You'll build and operate the full manufacturing ecosystem, not just a line, so output compounds as fast as the company scales.

  • Be the engine that grows faster than the company itself. Solve problems faster, think bigger, and develop yourself and your team as dynamically as Fluidstack scales around you.

Role Scope

  • Manage a bench of plant managers across multiple manufacturing sites, setting the production, quality, and safety bar every plant is held to.

  • Own plant logistics end to end, inbound materials, in-plant flow, and outbound shipping, so schedule and cost never turn on a supply gap.

  • Work across Manufacturing Engineering and Supply Chain to keep every plant running as designed, catching gaps before they show up in output.

  • Set and hold production targets across the fleet, catching a struggling site early enough to fix it before it slips the build calendar.

  • Build the manufacturing organization under you, hiring and developing plant managers as fast as new sites come online.

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 managed multiple plant managers or site leaders at once, holding each to the same production and quality bar.

  • You've owned plant logistics, inbound materials, in-plant flow, and outbound shipping, not just the production line itself.

  • You've worked cross-functionally with manufacturing engineering, supply chain, and program teams to keep multiple plants running as intended.

  • You've caught a struggling site early and fixed it before it slipped a build or shipment schedule.

  • You write clearly enough to turn a fleet-wide production issue into a decision a CEO or COO can make in one read.

  • Bonus: Multi-site manufacturing operations (semiconductor, EV, battery, or industrial equipment). Supply chain and logistics network design. Lean or Six Sigma programs run at scale. P&L ownership across multiple facilities.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
