Job summary

Fluidstack is seeking a Commissioning Engineer to join the commissioning team and own end-to-end validation of data center controls. You will ensure safety and reliability by testing BMS/EPMS sequences across sites in the United States.

You will automate repetitive tests, analyze control logic, and drive rigorous verification. Bonus: Niagara/Ignition/BMS platforms and PLC programming are a plus.

Qualifications

• Commissioning building controls on mission critical projects through integrated systems testing.
• Experience with thousands of points and keeping the tracker honest.
• Read control sequences critically and find cases the programmer missed.
• Script or automate repetitive test work rather than doing it manually.
• Bonus: Niagara, Ignition, or major BMS platforms; EPMS integration; PLC programming.

Responsibilities

• Commission BMS and EPMS controls for data centers and verify sequences end-to-end.
• Verify every sequence against design and prove failure modes behave as written.
• Run alarm rationalization and graphics validation for operator trust on day one.
• Automate test execution and reporting to speed up commissioning at each site.

Job description

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

Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.

Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

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.

The Commissioning Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on.

Role Scope

• Commission BMS and EPMS controls for data centers: point-to-point through full sequence validation and integrated testing.
• Verify every sequence of operations against design, and prove failure modes behave as written, not as hoped.
• Run alarm rationalization and graphics validation so operators inherit a system they can trust on day one.
• Automate test execution and reporting so Level 4 and Level 5 commissioning gets faster every site.

What We're Looking For

• You've commissioned building controls on mission critical projects through integrated systems testing.
• You've done point-to-point on thousands of points and kept the tracker honest.
• You read control sequences critically and find the case the programmer missed.
• You script or automate repetitive test work rather than grinding it manually.
• Bonus: Niagara, Ignition, or major BMS platforms. EPMS integration. PLC programming. Data center liquid cooling controls.
