Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • 5-7 years experience in fire protection engineering, particularly in commercial or industrial projects.
  • Strong skills in reviewing hydraulic calculations and detection layouts to identify errors.
  • Experience conducting acceptance tests with Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) present.
  • Ability to research code questions using primary sources rather than relying on memory.
  • Bonus: Fire Protection Engineering (FPE) degree or in pursuit of Professional Engineer (PE) license, NICET certifications, experience with special hazard systems and data centers.

Responsibilities

  • Own fire protection engineering tasks for assigned sites, including design review, field support, and coordination with AHJ.
  • Review designs for sprinklers, detection, and special hazards against relevant codes and reference designs.
  • Support the installation and acceptance testing in collaboration with AHJ for sign-off.
  • Respond quickly to fire protection requests for information (RFIs) and ensure accurate routing of code-related inquiries.

Benefits

  • Autonomy in project ownership and execution.
  • Fast-paced working environment focused on innovation and efficiency.
  • Access to cutting-edge projects in AI and high-intensity workflows.
Full Job Description
How We Operate
  • 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.

The Capacity Delivery Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on
  • Engineer gigawatts from drawing to energized, in months not years. Capacity Delivery owns technical execution across every build: the drawings, the field questions, and the engineering calls that keep multiple concurrent gigawatt sites moving.
  • Engineer data centers that go up in months, not years. At that pace rework is not an option: problems get caught on paper or they cost a data hall.
  • Design it once, build it a hundred times. Every site's lessons roll into the reference design on the way to 50GW+, so each build starts ahead of the last.

Role Scope
  • Own fire protection engineering for assigned sites: design review, field support, and AHJ coordination.
  • Review sprinkler, detection, and special hazard designs against code and the reference design.
  • Support field installation and acceptance testing through AHJ sign-off.
  • Answer fire protection RFIs fast and route code questions to defensible answers.

What We're Looking For

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
  • You've done fire protection engineering on commercial or industrial projects.
  • You review hydraulic calculations and detection layouts and catch errors.
  • You've run acceptance tests with the AHJ in the room.
  • You research code questions to primary sources, not to memory.
  • Bonus: FPE degree or PE track. NICET certifications. Special hazard systems. Data center experience.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
