Job description

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. THE ACCOUNTING TEAM Examples of key problems the team is working on - Build the financial infrastructure from the ground up (NetSuite, Zip, Shareworks, Pigment). - Stand up a lean finance org for the fastest-growing data center hyperscaler. - Own the full stack from vendor invoice to cap table. ROLE SCOPE - Own the full-cycle general ledger function, from journal entries and account reconciliations through monthly financial statement preparation. - Run month-end and year-end close to schedule, coordinating with FP&A, Tax, and Operations so the books close without slipping deadlines. - Expand the chart of accounts and entity structure in NetSuite as new subsidiaries and currencies come online, without letting the ledger turn into a mess. - Support external audits end to end, preparing PBC schedules, answering auditor requests, and standing behind every number in the file. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR The below is a starting point.
