Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of field engineering experience in mechanical scope for industrial or data center builds.
  • Ability to identify installation errors from a distance.
  • Strong documentation skills to ensure contractor compliance.
  • On-site presence during builds is essential and preferred.
  • Familiarity with welding and pipefitting is a bonus, as well as knowledge of liquid cooling systems and commissioning support.

Responsibilities

  • Oversee mechanical installations on-site, ensuring adherence to designs and specifications.
  • Perform daily inspections of mechanical installations for supports, slopes, clearances, and torque.
  • Manage the mechanical punch process to ensure systems are fully commissioned.
  • Provide constructive feedback to design based on practical build observations and challenges.
  • Collaborate closely with contractors to rectify installation issues promptly.

Benefits

  • Opportunities for extreme ownership and autonomy in project execution.
  • Fast-paced work environment focused on driving projects forward swiftly.
  • Encouragement of innovative thinking and challenging conventional assumptions.

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
  • Be the mechanical engineering presence on site: walk installs, catch deviations, and answer questions at the workface.
  • Verify mechanical installation against design daily: supports, slopes, clearances, torque.
  • Run the mechanical punch process so systems hand to commissioning complete, not merely close.
  • Feed field reality back to design: what's buildable, what isn't, what should change.

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 field-engineered mechanical scope on industrial or data center builds.
  • You spot a wrong install from across the data hall.
  • You document findings so contractors fix them without a fight.
  • You live on site during the build and like it there.
  • Bonus: Welding and pipefitting knowledge. Liquid cooling installs. Commissioning support. QC certifications.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
