Manufacturing Engineer — Line Design & Takt

FluidstackAustin, TX
$203,000 - $232,000

About The Position

Fluidstack is seeking a Manufacturing Engineer focused on Line Design & Takt to join their team. The company's mission is to make humanity more free by delivering massive amounts of compute infrastructure for AI faster than anyone else. This involves rethinking every layer of the stack, from acquiring power to designing and operating data centers. They are looking for individuals who are deeply committed to this mission and operate with extreme ownership, velocity, first principles, and a passion for the problem space. The role involves designing production lines, modeling capacity, engineering ramp plans, and adapting designs as the product evolves.

Requirements

  • Designed manufacturing lines or major line extensions that got built.
  • Takt and capacity models matched reality within noise.
  • Used simulation or rigorous math to find the bottleneck before it found you.
  • Design for the operators: ergonomics, presentation, and flow.
  • Defend a layout decision with data and change it when the data says to.

Nice To Haves

  • Discrete event simulation.
  • Heavy product lines.
  • Greenfield factory design.
  • Lean and TPS grounding.

Responsibilities

  • Design the production lines: layouts, station counts, and takt math for module fabrication and assembly.
  • Model capacity honestly: bottlenecks, buffers, and the real output curve under variation.
  • Engineer the ramp plans: how each line gets from first unit to rate, with the constraints named.
  • Redesign as the product evolves: new configurations absorbed without rebuilding the factory.

Benefits

  • Commitment to pay equity and transparency.
