Onsite Controls Engineer, Modular Data Centers

Fluidstack; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 90,000 - 130,000; Full time

Job summary

Fluidstack is seeking an engineer to own and check out the controls on the modular data-center line. You will work hands-on with PLCs, BMS integration, sensors, and I/O, ensuring end-to-end termination and real-time issue resolution on the Phoenix line.

You will perform point-to-point checkout, write tests for first-article units, and deliver timely fixes for ongoing revisions. You will help close the loop to design by feeding line learnings back into wiring diagrams, logic, and BOM updates,

Qualifications

• You've engineered or commissioned controls systems hands-on: PLC, BMS, or industrial automation, from integrators, BMS contractors, or data center commissioning firms.
• You've done point-to-point checkout and loop checks on real panels at volume, not just reviewed them on paper.
• You've worked on a shop floor or production line, and dispositioning a nonconformance in the moment is familiar work, not an escalation.
• You've supported production launches or startups of systems you helped build, and stayed until they ran.
• You iterate fast without losing configuration control: when the drawing, the wiring, and the logic disagree, you can isolate which one is wrong and keep the line moving while it gets fixed.
• You write the logic, then stand at the cabinet proving every point
• Bonus: PLC programming (Rockwell, Siemens), data center BMS platforms, panel and wiring diagram standards, or instrumentation depth

Responsibilities

• Engineer and check out the controls of the modular product on the line, PLCs, BMS integration, sensors, and I/O, owning every point from panel to termination
• Live on the Phoenix manufacturing line: walk the floor daily, catch wiring and I/O issues at the station where they happen, and disposition them on the spot
• Run point-to-point checkout, loop checks, and first-article functional tests in person as units come down the line, with results documented well enough to stand behind at handoff
• Own real-time controls support for the factory: answer controls RFIs same-day from the floor and engineer fixes into the next revision, not a punch list
• Close the loop to design: feed what the line learns back into wiring diagrams, logic, and the BOM so the same defect never ships twice
