Role description
Transportation Coordinator
FluidstackAbout Fluidstack
We exist to make humanity more free. 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 Operate
Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.
Insane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
Reason from 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.
Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.
The Logistics Team
Examples of key problems the team is working on
Decide what lives on site, what lives an hour out, and what lives twelve hours out. We're building the material disposition strategy from scratch for a fleet scaling across multiple sites at once, and getting that placement logic right is the difference between a blocked site and one that never stops.
Move off third-party warehousing and stand up our own. We're transitioning out of 3PL-run warehouses and building the operation in-house, on our own footprint and our own rules.
Build and integrate our own warehouse, inventory, and transportation management systems. No off-the-shelf stack covers a build at this scale, so the systems get built and connected in-house, end to end.
Role Scope
Book and schedule shipments across the network, coordinating pickup and delivery windows directly with the carrier and receiving sites.
Track every shipment in transit through the transportation management system, checking ETAs against committed windows and flagging at-risk deliveries before they hit a site.
Chase missed SLAs to root cause with the carrier and drive each one to resolution, not just a note in the log.
Own the day-to-day relationship with our dedicated carrier: rates, capacity, service issues, and escalations.
Keep shipment and carrier performance data current in the TMS and turn it into a running view of who's hitting SLA and who isn't.
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 personally booked and managed shipments end to end, from carrier booking through delivery confirmation, across a network of multiple sites or destinations.
You track shipments obsessively: you know an ETA is slipping before the site does, and you say something before they have to ask.
You've owned a carrier relationship where you knew the account rep, the ops manager, and the actual truck schedule well enough to solve problems without escalating.
You've chased a missed SLA to its actual cause instead of writing it off as one of those things, and you can describe what changed after.
You're fluent in a transportation management system: booking, tracking, exception handling, and pulling the reports that tell you what's actually happening.
You keep shipment data clean and current under real volume, so nobody downstream has to double check your numbers.
Salary & Benefits
Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).
Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.
Health, dental, and vision insurance.
Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.
Total compensation may also include equity in the form of stock options.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
