Controls Systems Engineer, Deployment Engineering
About The Position
Fluidstack is building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI, aiming to deploy 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else. This role is within the Deployment Engineering Team, which is responsible for turning designs into operational infrastructure, closing the gap between engineering and operations, standardizing deployments, and ensuring reliable handover of infrastructure. The team works on problems such as turning 50GW+ of design into operational infrastructure, bridging the gap between engineering-complete and operations-ready, making each site deployment faster and cleaner than the last, and ensuring infrastructure is reliable from the moment it goes live. Fluidstack operates with principles of extreme ownership, full autonomy, velocity, first principles thinking, and a passion for the problem space. The company emphasizes long hours at high intensity to push the frontier of AI forward.
Requirements
- Hold a bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering, or a related field.
- Have deployed and commissioned control systems on industrial or mission-critical facilities with hands-on accountability for live system startup and acceptance.
- Have programmed and configured PLCs, SCADA, or HMI systems on at least one major platform (Rockwell, Siemens, Ignition, or equivalent).
- Have troubleshot control system integration failures and loop errors independently during active commissioning.
- Can travel to deployment and operations sites up to 50 percent of the time.
Nice To Haves
- Data center BMS/EPMS experience across chilled water, HVAC, power monitoring, and environmental monitoring systems.
- Proficiency in ladder logic, function block, or structured text programming.
- Familiarity with alarm management standards and control system reliability practices.
- Experience with remote monitoring platforms, data historians, or DCIM systems.
Responsibilities
- Deploy and commission BMS, SCADA, and EPMS systems at data center sites, running FAT, field integration, loop checks, sequence verification, and acceptance testing through to live handover.
- Support operational reliability of deployed control systems, responding to alerts and failures on live infrastructure and implementing fixes that prevent recurrence.
- Resolve field integration issues between control system layers and connected mechanical and electrical systems during commissioning, escalating with a clear problem description and proposed fix.
- Configure and verify control sequences, alarm setpoints, and data historian integrations against operational requirements.
- Contribute to commissioning checklists, acceptance test procedures, and runbooks that speed up and standardize future deployments.
Benefits
- Offers equity in the form of stock options.
- Commitment to pay equity and transparency.
