About Fluidstack

At Fluidstack, we’re building the infrastructure for abundant intelligence. We partner with top AI labs, governments, and enterprises - including Mistral, Poolside, Black Forest Labs, Meta, and more - to unlock compute at the speed of light.

We’re working with urgency to make AGI a reality. As such, our team is highly motivated and committed to delivering world-class infrastructure. We treat our customers’ outcomes as our own, taking pride in the systems we build and the trust we earn. If you’re motivated by purpose, obsessed with excellence, and ready to work very hard to accelerate the future of intelligence, join us in building what's next.

About the Role

Fluidstack is building one of the world's largest AI compute platforms, which means our supply chain is a critical competitive lever — not a back-office function. As a Director of Supply Chain, you will own the full end-to-end supply chain operation across two major categories: data center MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) and IT infrastructure (compute, storage, and networking), as well as our global logistics program.

This is a hands-on, high-ownership role. You will directly manage commodity and sourcing managers, procurement coordinators, and on-site logistics coordinators, and you will be in the work: negotiating deals, managing supplier escalations, driving logistics performance, and keeping execution tight across a fast-moving portfolio.

You Will

• Own end-to-end supply chain execution across MEP and IT infrastructure categories, driving cost, quality, lead time, and availability performance against targets

• Lead, develop, and scale a team of commodity managers, sourcing managers, procurement coordinators, and logistics coordinators across multiple sites and time zones

• Drive sourcing and contracting strategy for hardware OEMs, component suppliers, and MEP vendors (generators, UPS, switchgear, cooling, electrical)

• Manage contractor and contingent workforce supply chains, including master services agreements, rate cards, and performance management with staffing partners

• Build and enforce procurement policy, purchase order discipline, and spend governance frameworks that scale with Fluidstack's growth trajectory

• Oversee inventory strategy including safety stock, VMI programs, distribution hub positioning, and asset lifecycle tracking to minimize stranded capital

• Establish and track supply chain KPIs (on-time delivery, lead time, cost savings, supplier fill rate) and report performance to senior leadership regularly

• Partner closely with Data Center Construction, Infrastructure Engineering, Finance, and Legal to align supply chain timelines with facility development and program milestones

• Negotiate multi-year supply agreements, framework contracts, and spot purchase terms with tier-1 and tier-2 suppliers; own executive-level supplier relationships at the operational level

• Identify and mitigate supply risk, including single-source dependencies, geopolitical exposure, long-lead items, and allocation constraints for critical components

Basic Qualifications

• 10+ years of progressive supply chain experience, with at least 5 years managing teams in technology hardware, data center, or hyperscale infrastructure environments

• Demonstrated track record owning both procurement/sourcing and logistics functions simultaneously at material scale

• Direct experience sourcing and contracting for IT infrastructure hardware (servers, GPUs, networking) and/or data center MEP equipment

• Experience managing global logistics programs including freight, customs/trade compliance, and on-site or embedded logistics coordination

• Strong people manager with experience building and developing high-performing supply chain teams across multiple functions

• Proficiency in supply chain systems and tools (ERP, procurement platforms, WMS, inventory management) and strong quantitative/analytical skills

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Engineering, Operations, Business, or a related field

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience at a hyperscaler, neocloud, leading AI infrastructure company, or a major IT OEM/ODM in a VP or equivalent supply chain leadership role

• Deep established relationships across the AI infrastructure supply chain: GPU and compute OEMs, server ODMs, networking, and MEP prime and specialty subcontractors

• Experience with NPI supply chain processes and GPU/accelerator procurement at allocation-constrained scale

• Deep understanding of next-generation datacenter technologies, including 800VDC and SST
