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.

The Ontology Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on

Reduce the latency from something happening to Fluidstack knowing about it. Index operational systems, documents, conversations, and telemetry as they change, so a delayed shipment or a rack coming online becomes usable context while there is still time to act.
Give every entity in Fluidstack's domain a shared identity. Connect a machine’s design, order, delivery, deployment, and incidents even when each system describes it differently.
Turn what Fluidstack knows into business signals. Compare plans with observations across sites, supply chains, and compute operations, and surface the gaps that matter as the company builds at gigawatt scale.
Build a secure platform where agents can be first-class citizens. Give agents access within each user’s permissions, with every answer traceable to its sources, freshness, and gaps in the evidence.

Role Scope

Build the internal data platform that turns updates from procurement, construction, compute operations, documents, and conversations into fresh, queryable context for Fluidstack teams and agents.
Make new sources straightforward to add, including vendor records, PDFs, spreadsheets, and exports, while keeping a clear path from structured data back to its original evidence.
Ship query and retrieval services that enforce a caller’s permissions before data reaches an agent, including when an answer combines or summarizes information from multiple systems.
Preserve source ownership, provenance, history, freshness, and access policies as data is transformed or combined, and propagate deletions and permission changes to downstream results.
Set and operate freshness, quality, and security guarantees, using real operational questions and failures to judge whether the platform helps Fluidstack act sooner.

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 and operated a shared data system that changed how other teams made decisions or ran critical workflows.
You’ve made heterogeneous operational data coherent and extensible enough for other engineers to bring new domains into it.
You’ve built permissioned query or retrieval systems that software could use on behalf of people, with source restrictions enforced in search and derived answers.
You’ve kept data systems correct as sources, permissions, and records changed, including when data had to be replayed or removed.
You’ve worked directly with operators to find the decisions their data needed to support, then built shared capabilities around those needs.
You’ve traced a wrong or stale answer back to its source, fixed the cause, and made that failure detectable the next time.
Bonus: Data warehouse and lakehouse platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, ClickHouse). Change data capture and streaming (Debezium, Kafka). Authorization systems (OpenFGA, attribute-based access control). Search and document extraction. Physical infrastructure, inventory, or supply chain data.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
