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 seeking individuals who care deeply about this mission and are driven by extreme ownership, velocity, first principles thinking, and a passion for the frontier of AI. The Software Engineering Team is tackling exciting problems such as automating site design generation from unstructured vendor material, creating a live, self-updating model of project delivery schedules to replace static Gantt charts, and building an agent platform with robust authorization, audit, and guardrails to enable AI agents to actively accelerate infrastructure development.

Requirements

  • Ability to move toward ambiguity and build clarity.
  • Capacity to learn quickly and achieve competence in unfamiliar domains.
  • Demonstrated taste in abstraction, knowing when and when not to abstract.
  • Experience in rigorously modeling domains, having learned from past mistakes.
  • Proven ability to extract 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 working in any language 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).
  • Knowledge of audit or event-sourcing systems.
  • Proficiency in Go, TypeScript, and Postgres.

Responsibilities

  • Build core primitives end to end, including entity ownership, audit, and authorization, ensuring the right thing is the default and the wrong thing is difficult.
  • Own the domain model, transforming Fluidstack's world of power, datacenters, and chips into composable entities.
  • Define and manage 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 by providing them with the necessary tools, guardrails, and audit trails to act safely and effectively.

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
