Software Engineer, Applied AI

FluidstackAustin, TX
$173,000 - $250,000

About The Position

Fluidstack is building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI, aiming to deliver 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else. This involves rethinking every layer of the stack, from acquiring power and designing data centers to operating them. The company is focused on ensuring AI expands human freedom. They are looking for individuals who care deeply about this problem space and are driven by a sense of urgency, first principles thinking, and a desire to build something that matters. The Software Engineering Team is tackling complex problems such as automating site design generation from vendor documents, creating a live model for AI infrastructure project delivery schedules, and building an agent platform with robust authorization and guardrails to accelerate infrastructure development.

Requirements

  • Ability to move toward ambiguity and build maps in unclear situations.
  • Capacity to learn at a steep slope and achieve competence in unfamiliar domains quickly.
  • Demonstrated taste in abstraction, identifying the single primitive under multiple implementations and knowing when not to abstract.
  • Rigor in modeling domains, with experience learning from past mistakes.
  • Skill in extracting structure from messy, unstructured data, applicable to ML, data engineering, or research.
  • Fluency with AI tooling, including LLM APIs, MCP servers, and agentic frameworks.
  • Experience shipping production code that others depend on.
  • Comfort in any language when using AI coding tools.

Nice To Haves

  • MLE work, especially extraction and synthesis from unstructured data.
  • Experience with workflow and orchestration engines (Temporal, Cadence, Airflow).
  • Familiarity with Geospatial (KMZ/GIS) or BIM (Revit, IFC).
  • Experience with authorization and policy engines (OPA, Zanzibar-style, RBAC/ABAC).
  • Experience with audit or event-sourcing systems.
  • Proficiency in Go, TypeScript, and Postgres.

Responsibilities

  • Build core primitives end to end, including entity ownership, audit, and authorization, making the right thing the default and the wrong thing difficult.
  • Own the domain model, transforming Fluidstack's world of power, datacenters, and chips into composable entities.
  • Define interactions with the outside world, interfacing with vendor systems and ingesting formats like KMZ, BIM, Revit, and vendor documents.
  • Make AI agents first-class operators of systems, providing them with the necessary tools, guardrails, and audit trails to act safely.

Benefits

  • Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity)
  • Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms
  • Equity in the form of restricted stock units
  • Commitment to pay equity and transparency
