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.

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.

Role Scope

• Inspect fabrication and assembly work to drawings and specs: dimensional, visual, and weld checks at defined points.
• Document findings cleanly: inspection records, NCRs, and photos that tell the story.
• Verify rework and hold the gate: nothing tagged red moves without disposition.
• Feed the data: findings logged so trends surface and fixes follow.

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 have inspected in a fabrication or manufacturing environment to drawings.
• You read prints and GD&T without help.
• You use the tools right: calibrated, recorded, and within method.
• You call defects consistently, even when the schedule pushes back.
• Your paperwork is complete the first time.
• Bonus: Weld inspection basics (CWI or CAWI track). NDT exposure. Steel and structural products. QMS software.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
