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 OperateExtreme 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. The Infrastructure TeamExamples of key problems the team is working onCompress the install. Land and certify hundreds of thousands of fiber terminations per building in weeks, across multiple concurrent gigawatt builds.Make quality a gate, not a hope. At AI scale, one dirty connector is a flapping link is a stalled training run. Every link tested, every loss budget proven, before the first GPU powers on.Scale an LVC workforce faster than the market produces it. Build the playbooks, QA gates, and field standards that take a contractor crew from onboarding to first-pass-yield quality in days, and hold them to a hyperscale bar at speed. Role ScopeOwn the full lifecycle of physical installation projects: coordinate LVC schedules, run QA/QC on contractor work, and ensure installs meet design standards, safety codes, and labeling policy.Serve as the primary on-site technical point of contact for the Low Voltage Contractor and internal engineering teams, and act as remote hands during deployment and validation.Manage the LVC deployment schedule to milestones, coordinate access, material delivery, and staging with facility operations, and report progress and delays.Run multi-stage QA inspections on rack placement, racking, cable routing, grounding, and labeling against the BoM and design documentation.Conduct or oversee optical loss testing (OLTS), OTDR analysis, and insertion/return loss on all fiber links, and verify copper (Cat6a/Cat8) integrity with certified testers.Act as the SME for fiber...
