About Fluidstack
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 drive everything forward as fast as possible.
Reason from first principles.
Love of the game.
Build something that actually matters.
If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.
At Fluidstack, we're building the infrastructure for abundant intelligence. We partner with top AI labs, governments, and enterprises - including Mistral, Poolside, Black Forest Labs, Meta, and more - to unlock compute at the speed of light.
We're working with urgency to make AGI a reality. As such, our team is highly motivated and committed to delivering world-class infrastructure. We treat our customers' outcomes as our own, taking pride in the systems we build and the trust we earn. If you're motivated by purpose, obsessed with excellence, and ready to work very hard to accelerate the future of intelligence, join us in building what's next.
The Site Project Manager is the permanent, on-site owner of project delivery at one of Fluidstack's data centers. Once a site is live, you own the projects that keep it running and improving — retrofits, upgrades, expansions, equipment refreshes, and the cross-functional coordination operations depends on. You are the single point of accountability for getting site projects done safely, on schedule, and with minimal disruption to live operations.
Responsibilities
- Be a barrel.
- Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.
- Insane urgency.
- 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.

- Partner with operations and facilities teams to sequence work around uptime, maintenance windows, and change-control requirements

- Coordinate with engineering and SMEs to validate scope and execution for technical site projects
- Maintain project artifacts: schedules, budgets, risk and issue logs, change records, and as-built/closeout documentation
- Provide clear status, risk, and milestone reporting to site leadership and program stakeholders
- Drive site-level process improvements, runbooks, and standards that make recurring projects faster and safer
