Role description

Role Overview

We're a team 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. We're looking for people who care deeply about this problem space.

What You Will Do

As a Test Engineer, you'll own the test program that takes the compressor from first spin on the stand to a validated performance map. You'll specify and stand up the test cells, define the measurement chain and uncertainty budget, write test plans, interlocks and abort criteria, and turn test data into design changes on a weekly cadence.

Why It Might Be a Fit

We're looking for people who have experience with commissioning a test stand, taking a machine to failure deliberately, owning an uncertainty budget, writing interlock and abort logic, and carrying a failure investigation to a root cause that changed the hardware.

Requirements

  • Commissioned a test stand from a bare bay: instrumentation, calibration, shakedown, first article.
  • Taken a machine to failure deliberately and had it instrumented well enough to know exactly why it failed.
  • Owned an uncertainty budget and could tell someone what your measurement was actually worth.
  • Written interlock and abort logic that kept people safe around stored energy, high pressure or high speed.
  • Carried a failure investigation to a root cause that changed the hardware, rather than to a plausible story that closed the paperwork.

Benefits

  • Pay equity and transparency
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Health insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Retirement plan
  • Stock options
  • Bonus/commission
  • Paid holidays
