Fluidstack; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 110,000 - 160,000; Full time

Job summary

Fluidstack seeks a commissioning engineer to lead control systems for its frontier compute infrastructure. You will commission BMS, EPMS, and automation sequences on first units, ensuring design intent is met across modules.

You will analyze trends, perform point-to-point and functional tests, and prepare clear documentation so engineering can fix the standard, not just the site. A mindset of ownership and first principles helps push reliability.

Qualifications

• Experience commissioning control systems for data centers or industrial plants.
• Ability to verify point-to-point and functional performance without shortcuts.
• Ability to read or program BMS and PLC logic to locate bugs.
• Experience catching sequence errors that checks miss.
• Ability to document findings to guide engineering improvements.
• Knowledge of Tridium, ALC, or PLC platforms is a plus; analytics-driven commissioning and EPMS testing are a bonus.

Responsibilities

• Commission the controls of first units: BMS, EPMS, and automation sequences verified against design intent.
• Execute and improve the scripts: point-to-point, functional, and integrated tests run and dispositioned.
• Analyze the trends: sequence behavior reconciled against the written narrative, deltas driven to closure.
• Support the factory: controls FAT processes for modules before they ship.
