Fixed Asset Accounting Lead

ABOUT FLUIDSTACK

We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.

We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI.

We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!

ABOUT THE ROLE

Fluidstack is looking for a Fixed Asset Accounting Lead to own and scale our fixed asset function as we grow rapidly across global data center infrastructure. In this senior individual contributor / people manager role, you will be responsible for the end-to-end fixed asset lifecycle — from capitalization policy and CIP tracking through depreciation, disposals, and impairment — across a large and growing portfolio of GPU servers, networking equipment, and data center buildouts. You will partner closely with FP&A, Tax, Engineering, and Operations to ensure asset records are accurate, audit-ready, and aligned with both US GAAP and IFRS requirements. This is a high-impact role at the heart of FluidStack's IPO readiness journey.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

• 7+ years of fixed asset or property accounting experience, with at least 2 years in a lead or senior manager capacity
• Deep technical knowledge of ASC 360 (Property, Plant & Equipment), capitalization vs. expensing judgments, CIP accounting, and depreciation methodologies
• Experience managing fixed asset subledgers at scale (NetSuite or similar ERP), including reconciliation to the general ledger
• Strong understanding of month-end close processes and the ability to own the fixed asset close independently
• Experience working in a high-growth technology, data center, or capital-intensive industry

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• CPA license or equivalent professional accounting qualification
• Exposure to PCAOB audit environments and S-1 / IPO readiness processes
• Familiarity with IFRS 16 (lease accounting) and the intersection with owned vs. leased asset classification
• Experience building or overhauling fixed asset policies and procedures from the ground up
• Prior work with complex multi-entity, multi-currency asset portfolios across international jurisdictions

SALARY & 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.

The salary range for this position is $180,000 – $250,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. This range represents our good faith estimate of the compensation for this role at the time of posting. Total compensation may also include equity in the form of stock options.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
