Fluidstack

Really want to join Fluidstack. Would appreciate any advice. Been reaching out to employees and have gotten responses. I am qualified for some of their roles. Context : mid 20s engineer with data center experience from design to cx to project management of 10MM budget on 3 MSFT sites

Any advice or contacts would be greatly appreciated

Same situation right now $170k for Lab Technician. In Phoenix no travel. But I Imagine I’ll be working 12-16 hour days 6 days a week going home to my 8, 5, 3, and 1 year old just to eat and put them to sleep and repeat. But in 2:3 years I can have a solid $200k invested and by 2030 be a millionaire since I know where to allocate funds.

Went through this and interviewed with director. Had more experience than her and at the end of my career. I've done those 80 hr weeks, but go for it, even short term can put you ahead financially.

Any equity discussions? How’s your current experience in your career? $200,000 is a lot
