Software Engineer, Commissioning Automation

FluidStack; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 140,000 - 210,000; Full time

Job summary

Fluidstack is seeking engineers to build software that automates commissioning across data-center scale. You will implement test orchestration, data capture, and pass-fail analysis for L4/L5 systems, delivering repeatable code across sites.

The role favors hands-on experience with hardware or industrial test automation, integration with control systems, and a discipline for auditable results. Bonus: commissioning domain knowledge, BMS protocols, and programming in Python, Go, or TypeScript.

Qualifications

• Built test automation or orchestration systems for hardware, infrastructure, or industrial use.
• Integrated software with control systems or instrumentation.
• Designed for auditability with traceable results.
• Replaced manual expert processes with trusted software.
• Delivered production-grade software with fast delivery.

Responsibilities

• Build software to automate commissioning: test orchestration, data capture, and pass-fail analysis across L4/L5.
• Ship tooling that turns commissioning scripts into executable, repeatable code across sites.
• Integrate with BMS, EPMS and test equipment so evidence collects automatically.
• Own commissioning status and results reporting live, not in binders.

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

• Build the software that automates commissioning: test orchestration, data capture, and pass-fail analysis for L4 and L5.

• Ship the tooling that turns commissioning scripts into executable, repeatable code across sites.

• Integrate with BMS, EPMS, and test equipment so evidence collects itself.

• Own the reporting: commissioning status and results live, not in binders.

What We're Looking For

• You’ve built test automation or orchestration systems for hardware, infrastructure, or industrial use.

• You’ve integrated software with control systems or instrumentation.

• You design for auditability: every result traceable to raw data.

• You’ve replaced a manual expert process with software the experts trust.

• You ship fast with production discipline.

• Bonus: Commissioning domain. BMS protocols. Python, Go, or TypeScript. Data center MEP familiarity.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
