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
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. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
Reason from 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.
Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.
Role Scope
Engineer the electrical side of behind-the-meter generation: collection, interconnection, and integration with the data center.
Design the electrical balance of plant: generator connections, transformers, and switchgear for fast-build plants.
Run the studies for islanded and grid-parallel operation: stability, grounding, and protection coordination.
Integrate storage and generation electrically into one controllable campus system.
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.
You've engineered electrical systems for power generation, microgrids, or utility-scale storage.
You've designed generator interconnections and the studies behind them.
You understand islanded operation and what it does to protection and stability.
You've integrated inverter-based resources with rotating machines.
You've taken plant designs through commissioning.
Bonus: Microgrid controls. Grid codes and interconnection standards. PSCAD or PSSE. BESS electrical design.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.

Electrical Systems Engineer Jobs in Austin: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a electrical systems engineer job in Austin?
Focus your search on Austin's semiconductor, defense, and energy storage sectors, which drive the highest concentration of local openings. Roles cluster in North Austin near the Domain and in Round Rock and Cedar Park, where major manufacturers and R&D campuses sit. Candidates with hands-on embedded systems, power electronics, or PCB design experience stand out here. Networking through local IEEE Austin section events and Austin's active hardware startup community also gives applicants a concrete edge.
Which companies hire electrical systems engineers in Austin?
Companies currently hiring electrical systems engineers in Austin include Saronic Technologies, Dell Technologies, and Apple, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Austin's employer mix skews toward semiconductor fabs, defense contractors, and electric vehicle and energy storage companies that have established engineering campuses across the metro.
Are there remote electrical systems engineer jobs in Austin?
Yes, but selectively, since most electrical systems engineer roles involve hands-on lab work, hardware testing, or on-site systems integration that cannot be done remotely. About 0% of electrical systems engineer openings tied to Austin are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those positions tend to cover design review, simulation modeling, and project coordination rather than bench or floor work.
How can I get a electrical systems engineer job in Austin with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in Austin is targeting junior or associate hardware engineer roles at the city's mid-size semiconductor and clean energy companies, which hire more aggressively at the entry level than large defense primes. University of Texas engineering co-ops and internship pipelines feed directly into several Austin-area employers. Building a portfolio of EAGLE or Altium PCB projects, completing a relevant UT Austin or Austin Community College continuing education course, and attending Austin Hardware Happy Hour meetups all accelerate early-career traction in this market.
Which industries hire the most electrical systems engineers in Austin?
The sectors hiring the most electrical systems engineers in Austin are Manufacturing, Science & Research, and Electronics & Hardware, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Austin's convergence of semiconductor manufacturing, defense and aerospace contractors, and a rapidly growing clean energy and EV supply chain makes it one of the most active hardware engineering markets in the South and Southwest.
