About Fluidstack

Technology is the most important tool humans have found for improving the human condition, but it is not a default good. It is a lever for ideology.

Today the most powerful technology in history is being built: machines that solve problems better than humans can. The most important mission of our generation is to imbue AI with democratic values: error-correcting institutions, freedom of speech, individual liberties. AI trains and runs on massive compute clusters. Whichever ideology builds the infrastructure the fastest is the ideology that will endure. Democracy is delicate and won't survive this technology by default.

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

Engineer fire protection in the reference design: detection, suppression, and alarm systems for modular units and BTM plants.
Run the calcs and layouts: hydraulics, coverage, and device placement owned end to end.
Develop the details that repeat: standardized designs fabricated into modules instead of field-built.
Support permitting and commissioning: AHJ questions answered, acceptance tests passed.

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 designed fire protection systems for industrial or mission-critical facilities.
You run your own hydraulic calcs and stand behind them.
You've taken designs through plan review and acceptance testing.
You know NFPA 13 and 72 well and look up the rest fast.
You design for fabrication, not just for the code minimum.
Bonus: Clean agent and water mist systems. BESS protection (NFPA 855). AutoSPRINK or HydraCAD. NICET or PE track.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
