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 Production Engineering Team
Examples of key problems the team is working on
Operate at the scale of a nation, not a building. The fleet you run will draw more power than some countries, on the way to 10s to 100s of GWs.
Fly the plane while it's being built. Sites come online in pieces, and you keep the live ones running flawlessly while construction continues around them.
Write the playbook, don't inherit it. No prior operations org has run at this speed and scale, so the standards you set become the standard.
Role Scope
Own reliability for named customer workloads: their clusters, their SLAs, their escalations.
Debug across the full stack, hardware to fabric to scheduler, when a training run degrades.
Run customer-facing incident communication with technical depth and no spin.
Turn recurring customer pain into engineering fixes with the production teams.
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 supported large-scale compute customers (HPC, cloud, or AI labs) at a technical level.
You debug distributed systems methodically across layers you don't own.
You've written incident updates customers trusted more after reading.
You push internal teams to fix causes, not symptoms, and follow up until they do.
Bonus: GPU training workloads. InfiniBand or RoCE. Slurm or Kubernetes. NCCL debugging.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
