Material Manager

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! About the Role We're looking for a Material Manager to keep Fluidstack's datacenter and infrastructure supply chain moving with precision and speed. This is a high-impact role at the center of our operations: you'll own the day-to-day execution of equipment procurement, from vendor communication and lead time tracking to delivery confirmation and logistics coordination. The ideal candidate combines operational rigor with technical curiosity. You understand what transformers are, where to buy chillers, why lead times on InfiniBand switches matter, and how to build tools that guarantee equipment arrives on site on time. You're also excited about automation: you see manual, repetitive data-gathering tasks as surfaces to instrument, not just chores to do. You Will Own the end-to-end tracking of hardware purchase orders across datacenter MEP and infrastructure compute, storage, and networking, from PO issuance through delivery confirmation and inventory receipt Serve as the primary point of contact with hardware vendors and logistics partners, managing communication cadences around lead times, shipment status, and exception handling Build and maintain dashboards and tracking tools that give infrastructure and finance teams real-time visibility into what's on order, what's in transit, and what's at risk Automate recurring data-gathering workflows: vendor capacity pulls, lead time updates, shipment ETA aggregation to reduce manual overhead and increase signal fidelity Coordinate inbound logistics with freight forwarders, customs brokers, and data center receiving teams to ensure timely delivery and accurate documentation; integrating with our WMS and TMS systems Identify procurement risks proactively (supply constraints, allocation shortfalls, shipping delays) and escalate with context and options, not just flags Support onboarding of new vendors: collecting documentation, validating capabilities, and integrating them into tracking workflows Collaborate with infrastructure and finance teams on demand forecasting, PO planning, and budget reconciliation Basic Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Industrial Engineering, Operations, or a related technical field 0-3 years of professional experience in procurement, supply chain coordination, logistics, or operations (internship experience counts) Hands-on proficiency with spreadsheet tools (Excel or Google Sheets) for data tracking, pivot analysis, and workflow management as well as AI tools to build and automate your processes Clear, organized written communication — you can write a vendor escalation email and a status summary that both land well Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where processes are being built, not just followed Preferred Qualifications Experience working with hardware procurement at a technology company, especially a familiarity with datacenter mechanical, electrical, and plumbing and/or infrastructure like GPU servers, network switches, etc. strongly preferred Exposure to ERP or procurement platforms (SAP, Coupa, NetSuite, or similar) and understanding of PO lifecycle management Experience building automation or tooling to reduce manual data entry: Zapier workflows, Airtable automations, or equivalent Familiarity with international freight logistics: Incoterms, customs documentation, freight forwarder coordination, or bonded warehouse handling Working knowledge of supply chain risk concepts: lead time variability, safety stock, allocation windows, and supplier capacity constraints Prior experience at a hyperscaler, neocloud, semiconductor company, or hardware-forward tech company (Apple, NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, CoreWeave, Lambda, Google, AWS, or similar) APICS CSCP or CPSM coursework or certification is a plus, not a requirement Salary and Benefits To provide greater transparency to candidates, we share base pay ranges for all US-based job postings.
