Designer & Detailer (Mechanical/Structural), Modular R&D

FluidstackAustin, TX
$134,000 - $164,000

About The Position

The Modular team designs and industrializes factory-built data center units, turning first-of-a-kind designs into repeatable products the factory can build again and again. This role is responsible for producing detailed mechanical and structural models and drawings for structures, skids, piping, and assemblies, ensuring they are fully detailed with nothing left to interpretation. The position requires detailing steel and mechanical systems to fabrication level, including connections, penetrations, pipe spools, and BOM-linked parts, complete enough that a fitter never has to guess. A key aspect of the role is managing engineering changes efficiently, turning them into updated, released drawing packages in days, not weeks, with clean revision tracking. The individual will also own model hygiene, building and enforcing standards, libraries, and templates to make subsequent units faster to detail and less prone to errors. The company emphasizes extreme ownership, velocity, first principles, and a passion for the problem space of AI infrastructure.

Requirements

  • Detailed for fabrication: structural steel, skids, piping, or modular assemblies, in a fab shop, skid builder, or modular manufacturing environment.
  • Drawings are built from without calling the detailer.
  • Packages carry the weld symbols, bolt callouts, and dimensions a fitter actually needs.
  • Model to standards and keep library discipline: parts, templates, and naming conventions stay clean under pressure.
  • Handle revision storms without version chaos. When engineering changes land, the released package is always the right one.
  • Know how things get made: welds, bends, tolerances, and the clearances real fabricators need to fit up, weld out, and inspect.
  • Know what gets red-lined when it's missing, and detailing has changed because of it.

Nice To Haves

  • Tekla or Advance Steel
  • Plant and BIM modeling (Revit, Plant 3D)
  • AWS weld symbols and AISC detailing standards
  • BIM coordination experience

Responsibilities

  • Produce the detailed mechanical and structural models and drawings the factory builds from: structures, skids, piping, and assemblies, fully detailed with nothing left to interpretation.
  • Detail steel and mechanical systems to fabrication level: connections, penetrations, pipe spools, and BOM-linked parts, complete enough that a fitter never has to guess.
  • Turn engineering changes into updated, released drawing packages in days, not weeks, with clean revision tracking throughout.
  • Own model hygiene: build and enforce the standards, libraries, and templates that make each subsequent unit faster to detail and harder to get wrong.

Benefits

  • Commitment to pay equity and transparency
  • Equal Employment Opportunity Employer status
