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!

HOW WE OPERATE

• Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.
• Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
• First principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.
• Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.

THE SUPPLY CHAIN TEAM

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Supply 10GW of compute, the largest build out of compute in history. Qualify and dual-source across every critical equipment category, with lead-time and capacity thresholds tied directly to the forward build pipeline.
• Make supply chain the reason we build faster than anyone. Our modular build redefines speed in this industry, and it lives or dies on supply chain. Keep procurement permanently off the critical path so schedule compression stays our advantage, not our constraint.
• Build the most accurate supply chain prediction modeling that exists. Use the frontier of AI to forecast lead times, demand, and disruption with a precision the industry has never had, and turn that foresight into a structural edge.

ROLE SCOPE

• Own machine risk assessments for robotic work cells, AGVs, conveyance systems, and cobot deployments on the production floor, specifying safeguarding controls per ANSI/RIA R15.06, R15.08, ISO 10218-1/2, ISO/TS 15066, and the ANSI B11 series.
• Lead incident investigations using 5-Why and fault tree analysis, drive corrective and preventive actions to closure, and serve as the site liaison to ADOSH for inspections, citations, and OSHA 300/300A record-keeping.
• Chair the facility's Joint Health and Safety Committee, run the routine inspection program of walkthroughs and Gemba observations, and report leading and lagging safety KPIs to plant leadership monthly.
• Partner with Engineering during equipment commissioning and capital projects to integrate safety-by-design principles and validate lockout and tag out procedures.
• Own the manufacturing safety program budget and third-party safety consultant relationships, and manage and develop the safety specialists and technicians assigned to the floor.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would. https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/fluidstack/05c2e69c-42f9-4fcb-9cf0-a467aaf98f1c

• You've conducted machine risk assessments per ANSI/RIA R15.06, R15.08, ISO 10218-1/2, ISO/TS 15066, or the ANSI B11 series, and turned findings into safeguarding specs that engineering actually built.
• You hold a technical engineering background (Occupational Safety, Industrial, Mechanical, Chemical, or Environmental Engineering, or a closely related field), because signing off on automation safety in a high-automation plant requires it.
• You've managed and developed safety specialists, coordinators, or technicians, and owned a program budget and vendor relationships, not just directed contractors.
• You've led root-cause investigations using 5-Why or fault tree analysis on a manufacturing floor, and closed out the corrective actions, not just filed them.
• You've been the site point of contact for an OSHA or state-plan (ADOSH) inspection, and closed out findings without repeat citations.
• You've partnered with engineering teams during equipment commissioning to build safety into the design stage rather than bolting it on afterward.
• You track leading and lagging safety metrics and use them to change what plant leadership prioritizes month to month.
• Bonus: Certified Safety Professional (CSP) or Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), held or actively pursuing. OSHA 30-Hour General Industry card. Experience with collaborative robots and AGV/AMR safety programs. Lean or Six Sigma exposure applied to safety work.

Compensation: $105,000 - $140,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. Offers equity in the form of stock options.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
