FluidstackAustin, TXOwn the electrical equipment category (switchgear, transformers, UPS, generators, busway) for massive AI compute buildout. Negotiate multi-year capacity reservations with OEMs, dual-source non-interchangeable equipment, track factory production, and expedite as needed for data center construction.
Own the electrical category: switchgear, transformers, UPS, generators, and busway, the longest lead times in the build.
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 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.
