•$197,000 - $227,000
About The Position
Fluidstack is building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI, focusing on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else. This role involves engineering the logic that flexes gigawatts of load against grid signals and price, building control strategies that coordinate IT load, cooling, and behind-the-meter generation without impacting SLAs, and integrating with markets and utilities to ensure verified responses and settlement-grade data. Strategies will be proven in simulation before fleet-wide deployment.
Requirements
- Engineered controls for energy systems: demand response, microgrids, or industrial load management.
- Built control logic that acted on real load and kept its constraints.
- Understand power systems enough to know what not to automate.
- Integrated with utility or market signals.
- Validate in simulation before the field, every time.
Nice To Haves
- Data center power and cooling.
- BESS controls.
- ISO and RTO market mechanics.
- Optimization methods.
Responsibilities
- Engineer demand management controls: the logic that flexes gigawatts of load against grid signals and price.
- Build control strategies coordinating IT load, cooling, and behind-the-meter generation without touching an SLA.

- Prove strategies in simulation, then deploy them across the fleet.
Benefits
- Commitment to pay equity and transparency.
