FluidstackAustin, TXOwn compute and storage sourcing (GPU servers, storage systems, node components) from supplier strategy through delivery for massive AI data center buildout. Negotiate pricing/lead times/capacity with OEMs/ODMs, dual-source critical configs, and manage supplier performance tied to forward pipeline.
Own the compute and storage category: GPU servers, storage systems, and node-level components from supplier strategy through delivery.
Build and run the global spares sourcing program for critical datacenter equipment (chillers, generators, switchgear) at multi-GW scale. Qualify/dual-source suppliers, set stocking levels tied to failure data and criticality, negotiate VMI/consignment terms, and partner with reliability teams to ensure zero downtime from parts shortages.
Own the consumables category (coolant, filters, PPE, spares) for Fluidstack's massive AI compute buildout. Set stocking strategies, negotiate national agreements, standardize SKUs, and build automated consumption-based replenishment systems across multiple data center sites.
Own the fiber and optics supply chain category for massive AI data center builds. Negotiate high-volume agreements, dual-source transceivers, qualify components, and forecast demand to keep procurement off the critical path.
Own end-to-end supplier integration, performance management, and system connectivity to synchronize supplier capacity, quality, and delivery with manufacturing build plans. Requires prior experience managing supplier launches, recovering failing suppliers, and connecting processes to ERP/MRP systems.
Own the structural steel category for Fluidstack's massive AI compute buildout. Source and qualify fabricators at industrial scale, negotiate commodity-resistant pricing, balance capacity across shops, and manage hedging to keep modular data center construction off the critical path.
