[Hiring] Global Sourcing Manager, Mechanical @Fluidstack

Role Description

Own the data center mechanical category: CDUs, chillers, pumps, dry coolers, and piping packages for liquid-cooled builds.

• Negotiate supply agreements with mechanical OEMs covering price, lead time, and factory capacity across a multi-year pipeline.
• Dual-source CDU and chiller platforms and drive the qualification work that makes the second source usable.
• Coordinate with manufacturing and design so equipment specs freeze early enough to buy at the lead times the market gives.

Qualifications

• You've sourced major mechanical equipment (chillers, CDUs, AHUs, pumps) for data center or industrial programs.
• You've negotiated with mechanical OEMs on multi-year committed volumes.
• You know liquid cooling equipment well enough to challenge a spec or a price with substance.
• You've managed factory schedules and witness points so delivery dates held.
• Bonus: Direct-to-chip liquid cooling. Modular skid packages. Factory acceptance testing. Refrigerant and coolant markets.

Requirements

• 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.
