Electrical Design Engineer, Data Center Design Engineering

Fluidstack • Austin, TX

14h • $180,000 - $270,000

About The Position

Engineers at FluidStack work to design resilient, cost-effective electrical distribution systems that power our global GPU cloud infrastructure. As engineers at FluidStack, we are responsible for achieving world-class uptime for our AI and HPC customers who depend on us for their most demanding workloads. We justify and communicate technical decisions to senior leadership and continuously drive advancements in our data center designs. As an engineer at FluidStack, you have the ability to shape the infrastructure that leading AI companies rely on.
We are looking for engineers with hands-on electrical design experience. If you can design an electrical system, understand the critical equipment needs for a high-density GPU data center, and grasp the constructibility of varying designs, you may be a great fit. As we scale rapidly, we are building our team to own more engineering in-house. Engineers will be responsible for taking designs from concept through permit and construction document sets. You must be capable of defining critical equipment specifications and approving equipment submittals. Engineers will directly support construction and be involved throughout the full project lifecycle — from site selection review through commissioning and turnover. At FluidStack, we are committed to continued learning and the ongoing development of every member of our team.
