IT Engineer, Data Center

FluidstackAustin, TX
$218,000 - $252,000Onsite

About The Position

Fluidstack is building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI, focusing on delivering compute power at unprecedented speed and scale. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about this mission and want to be part of a team that is rethinking every layer of the stack. The IT team plays a crucial role in enabling the company's rapid growth by engineering robust and scalable internal infrastructure. This includes building systems for one of the world's largest compute buildouts, solving complex multi-tenancy problems, and ensuring every employee has the tools and speed to reach tens of gigawatts. The team operates with principles of extreme ownership, velocity, first principles thinking, and a deep passion for the problem space, often involving long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.

Requirements

  • Built and run IT infrastructure across multiple physical sites, standing up networks, identity, and endpoint management from nothing rather than inheriting a mature environment.
  • Automated IT operations with code (scripting, infrastructure-as-code, MDM policy as code) so that a task done twice by hand became software.
  • Owned identity and access management (SSO, SCIM, directory services) for a fast-growing organization without letting access sprawl or offboarding gaps accumulate.
  • Been the person field, construction, or operations teams call when systems are down on site, and resolved incidents under time pressure with people waiting.
  • Designed multi-tenant or segmented network environments that kept separate teams, sites, or customers secure without slowing anyone down.
  • Write documentation and runbooks clear enough that the next engineer can stand up a site without asking.

Nice To Haves

  • Data center or industrial site IT experience.
  • Hands-on networking (BGP, VLANs, firewalls) at scale.
  • Okta, Jamf, or Intune administration.
  • Security or compliance framework exposure (SOC 2, ISO 27001).

Responsibilities

  • Build and run the on-site IT infrastructure at gigawatt-scale data center campuses, from corporate network and Wi-Fi to badge systems, conference rooms, and edge compute, so a new site is operational the day the first team arrives.
  • Automate provisioning of endpoints, identity, and access across a workforce growing 10x, so device setup and offboarding run as version-controlled code rather than manual tickets.
  • Own the multi-site IT stack that keeps teams, contractors, and customers cleanly separated and secure, coordinating with the security team on access controls and network segmentation.
  • Stand up repeatable IT deployment runbooks for each new campus so the tenth site comes online faster and cleaner than the first.
  • Resolve on-site incidents and unblock field and construction teams directly, closing the gap between a reported issue and a working system in hours, not days.

Benefits

  • We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
  • Fluidstack is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability and protected veterans’ status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
  • Fluidstack will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records pursuant to applicable law.
