Role brief

techroles summary, based on the employer's posting.

What you'll do

  • Build software to coordinate commissioning tests, capture their data and judge whether L4 and L5 checks pass
  • Turn commissioning scripts into repeatable executable tools that work across sites
  • Connect the software to BMS, EPMS and test equipment so it gathers evidence automatically
  • Keep commissioning progress and outcomes visible in live reports

What you bring

  • You have built test automation or orchestration for hardware, infrastructure or industrial settings
  • You have connected software to control systems or measurement equipment
  • You make results traceable back to their source data and have replaced expert-led manual work with software they trust
  • You deliver quickly while maintaining production discipline

Who this fits

This mid-level role is based onsite in Austin. It suits a software engineer who has built automation for physical systems and can make commissioning results traceable and dependable.

From the employer

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.

Role Scope

  • Build the software that automates commissioning: test orchestration, data capture, and pass-fail analysis for L4 and L5.

  • Ship the tooling that turns commissioning scripts into executable, repeatable code across sites.

  • Integrate with BMS, EPMS, and test equipment so evidence collects itself.

  • Own the reporting: commissioning status and results live, not in binders.

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 built test automation or orchestration systems for hardware, infrastructure, or industrial use.

  • You've integrated software with control systems or instrumentation.

  • You design for auditability: every result traceable to raw data.

  • You've replaced a manual expert process with software the experts trust.

  • You ship fast with production discipline.

  • Bonus: Commissioning domain. BMS protocols. Python, Go, or TypeScript. Data center MEP familiarity.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
