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!
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.
Examples of key problems the team is working on
Reject more than 10 gigawatts of heat, starting now. Fluidstack is targeting 10 GW of compute in 2027 and 30 GW the year after. Every watt of it becomes heat that has to go somewhere, and no cooling team has ever been asked to open at that number rather than grow into it.
Design and build the machines, because nobody can supply them. The merchant compressor market cannot deliver at this rate, and the vendor base behind today’s chillers will not scale to gigawatts. We are taking compressor and chiller design in house, working on machine architectures nobody sells today, and going from blank sheet to production faster than this industry thinks is possible.
Own every thermofluids problem behind the fleet, not just the chiller. Working fluid and cycle architecture, heat exchangers at a scale that dominates the cost of the plant, two-phase heat transfer at the chip, and thermal energy storage. All of it is open, and whatever this team lands gets built thousands of times.
Own the structural analysis of the machine: impeller and rotor stress, casing and pressure containment, and the load paths through the packaged unit.
Design the pressure-containing structures, and carry them from first calculation to hardware people are willing to stand next to.
Run the rotordynamic and modal work alongside the turbomachinery engineer, covering critical speeds, whirl and the magnetic bearing interface.
Design the containment case, so an energetic failure at speed stays inside the machine.
Design the test cell structures and fixturing that carry the article, the drive and the loop under load.
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 taken a pressure-containing design from calculation through to a fabricated article, and it held.
You’ve run FEA on rotating hardware and correlated it against strain gauge, spin-pit or test data rather than trusting the model.
You’ve owned a containment or burst case and made the argument for why it holds to people whose safety depended on it.
You’ve worked the modal and critical-speed problem jointly with whoever designed the aerodynamics, early enough to change both.
You’ve signed off a structure that got built, and you were there when it was first loaded.
Bonus: Flight and propulsion structures (spin pit testing, burst margin, containment). Rotordynamics and bearing dynamics. High-cycle fatigue and fracture on rotating hardware. Pressure vessel and containment design. Professional Engineer license.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
