Fire Life Safety Commissioning Lead

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!

About the Role

We're looking for a seasoned Fire Life Safety Commissioning Lead to take technical ownership of FLS commissioning across mission-critical facilities and large-scale commercial projects. You'll be the go-to authority on the jobsite — coordinating with contractors, vendors, design teams, and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) officials to ensure every life safety system performs exactly as specified, fully code-compliant, and ready for occupancy. This is a field-forward leadership role. You'll build the plans, run the tests, direct the teams, and own the documentation that protects lives and closes projects. If you thrive in complex, high-stakes environments and bring deep technical credibility alongside strong communication skills, we want to hear from you.
