Prime Intellect is building the open superintelligence stack: the infrastructure frontier AI labs build internally, made available to every ambitious AI team.
Our platform, Lab, unifies compute, environments, evaluations, secure sandboxes, high-performance training, and deployment into one full-stack system for post-training at frontier scale - from SFT and RL to tool use, agent workflows, and continuously improving production models. We are building open frontier AI: open-source models trained end to end for long-horizon tasks like autonomous research, and the full-stack platform our own research team uses to build them. The next generation of AI companies, enterprises, and research teams do not just need more GPUs. They need the ability to turn their own workflows, tools, data, and feedback loops into superintelligence they own.
We train open frontier models and ship the same stack to our customers. Its spans the full stack of training, deploying and continuously improving models — compute, large-scale RL, environments, sandboxes, evals, and deployment.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators — including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Semianalysis, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.

We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
Compute is the foundational input of the AI era. The companies, models, and capabilities that define the next decade will be shaped by who has access to compute, on what terms, at what economics, and how it gets allocated across the systems that get built on top of it. The financial and operational architecture for an asset class of this consequence is still being built, and the playbooks for navigating it don't yet exist. The people who write them will define how the AI infrastructure industry develops over the next decade.
You will own the analytical foundation for how we understand global compute markets: pricing supply across regions and term lengths, modeling the economics of large GPU commitments, evaluating neoclouds and hyperscalers, and turning that work into provider decisions, commercial structures, and customer-facing products.
The work sits at the intersection of infrastructure, finance, and AI systems. You will evaluate questions like when an H200 cluster is the right fit versus GB200 or GB300, how networking and storage constraints affect real workload performance, how utilization assumptions change the economics of a multi-year commitment, and how regional power, colo, and capital costs flow through to GPU-hour pricing. You will diligence providers not just on headline price, but on delivery timeline, cluster architecture, reliability, support model, contractual risk, and ability to serve frontier AI workloads.
The decisions you support will directly shape Prime Intellect’s ability to deliver high-quality compute to researchers, AI labs, and enterprises building on top of our stack.
Compute Economics
Build and own the financial models that price our compute supply: per-cluster economics, contract structures, hardware generation comparisons, geographic and provider differentials
Model the economics of every meaningful supply decision — reserved vs. spot tradeoffs, term length, commitment level, hardware generation, provider mix, geography
Own margin architecture: margin by workload, customer, product, and contract, so we always know what's actually profitable and where the leverage is
Model the long-term P&L consequences of today's supply bets under multiple demand and pricing scenarios
Strategic Bets & Capital Allocation
Partner with leadership on the biggest decisions the company makes: which providers to commit to, which hardware generations, what geographies to lean into, how aggressively to scale
Build the financial frameworks that turn ambiguous strategic questions into decisions we can make with conviction
Own the long-range plan, scenario models, and capital allocation framework across compute, headcount, and product investment
Provider Engagement & Diligence
Engage directly with neoclouds, hyperscalers, and emerging providers on economic and technical diligence
Run the financial side of supply qualification — what we accept, what we reject, what we negotiate harder on
Translate technical performance characteristics into commercial recommendations
Build the repeatable analytical process for evaluating new entrants to the global supply market
Market Intelligence
Track pricing, availability, and provider dynamics continuously across every major market
Build Prime Intellect's view of the global compute market — who's credible, who's mispriced, where supply is tightening, where the next wave of capacity is coming online
Develop the analytical basis for our market positioning: when to commit hard, when to hold flexibility, where to lean in geographically
Cross-functional Partnership
Partner with Strategic Finance on how compute economics flow through to the company P&L
Partner with Engineering on the technical performance characteristics that drive cluster economics
Partner with Sales and Product on pricing strategy for consumption-based and hybrid products
Build board-ready analyses on supply strategy, capital allocation, and market positioning
What We're Looking For
4–7+ years in roles that combine financial rigor with real-world strategic or operational engagement. Backgrounds we'd find compelling include:
Investment banking, private equity, or growth equity with exposure to infrastructure, cloud, semiconductors, or technology
Quantitative or strategist roles at hedge funds, commodities desks, or trading firms
Infrastructure investing, project finance, or structured credit
Strategic finance or BizOps at a high-growth cloud, AI infrastructure, or compute-intensive company
Exceptional modeling and analytical skills — you build the models yourself, and your models reflect how the business actually works
Genuine technical curiosity. You don't need deep technical background to start, but you should be excited to develop fluency in GPU architectures, networking, cluster performance, and what makes one piece of compute economically different from another
Strong commercial and strategic judgment — you understand that finance's job is to drive better decisions, not produce more analysis
Comfortable engaging directly with vendors, partners, and senior counterparts at provider companies
Ability to operate across registers — building rigorous models, briefing leadership on strategic implications, and running diligence with senior counterparts at provider companies
High ownership — you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Bonus:
Direct experience modeling datacenter, colocation, cloud, or power/energy economics
Background covering AI infrastructure, cloud providers, semiconductors, or compute marketplaces from the banking, investing, or trading side
Hands-on experience with cluster benchmarking, training/inference workload economics, or compute marketplaces
Compute economics is becoming one of the most consequential domains in technology, and almost no one is approaching it with the rigor it deserves. You'll be in the room for the decisions shaping Prime Intellect's future and, in real ways, the future of open AI infrastructure. You'll work directly with leadership on the calls that define the company, develop deep expertise in a market most finance professionals only read about, and build a foundation in compute economics that is increasingly valuable across the industry.

A front-row seat to building the infrastructure layer for open AI
Prime Intellect is building the open superintelligence stack: the infrastructure frontier AI labs build internally, made available to every ambitious AI team.
Our platform, Lab, unifies compute, environments, evaluations, secure sandboxes, high-performance training, and deployment into one full-stack system for post-training at frontier scale - from SFT and RL to tool use, agent workflows, and continuously improving production models. We are building open frontier AI: open-source models trained end to end for long-horizon tasks like autonomous research, and the full-stack platform our own research team uses to build them. The next generation of AI companies, enterprises, and research teams do not just need more GPUs. They need the ability to turn their own workflows, tools, data, and feedback loops into superintelligence they own.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators — including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
We're looking for a Forward-Deployed Research Engineer (FDRE) to serve as the primary technical interface between Prime Intellect and our most important customers: AI companies, research labs, and enterprises running post-training and agentic RL on our platform.
This is not a traditional research role. You'll spend most of your time embedded with customers, understanding their models, workflows, and goals. Then, you'll translate those objectives into concrete training runs, environment designs, evaluation harnesses, and deployment recipes using the Lab stack. You are the person who makes the platform work in practice for real workloads.
You'll work closely with our research, product, and infrastructure teams to feed field insights back into the platform, shaping what we build next based on what customers actually need.
Embed directly with strategic customers to understand their agent architectures, failure modes, and product goals
Design and build custom RL environments, evaluation harnesses, and verifiers that capture what \"good\" looks like for each customer's domain
Architect agent scaffolding — tool use, multi-step reasoning, memory, sandbox execution — tailored to customer workflows
Configure and launch training runs on Lab, iterating on reward functions, rollout strategies, and evaluation criteria
Serve as the technical lead for engagements end-to-end: from discovery through deployed, improved models
Identify repeatable patterns from customer engagements and codify them into reference implementations, templates, and documentation
Serve as the voice of the customer internally, shaping the roadmap for Lab, verifiers, the Environments Hub, and training infrastructure
Build high-quality examples and \"recipes\" that make it easy for new customers and open-source contributors to extend the stack
Contribute to technical content (blog posts, tutorials, case studies) that demonstrates real-world platform usage
Develop novel evaluation methodologies for agentic behavior — multi-step reasoning, tool use correctness, recovery from failure, long-horizon task completion
Prototype and iterate on agent harnesses for real-world tasks: code generation, workflow automation, document processing, and more
Experiment with reward design, rubric construction, and environment shaping to improve training signal quality
Stay current on the frontier of agentic AI, evals, and post-training methods, and bring that knowledge directly into customer work
Deep hands-on experience building, evaluating, or deploying LLM-based agents in the past 1–2 years — you've seen what breaks in production and know what good evals look like
Strong intuition for evaluation design: you can look at a customer's agent and quickly identify what to measure, how to construct a rubric, and where the reward signal is weak
Working understanding of RL and post-training concepts (GRPO, RLHF, reward modeling, SFT) — you don't need to have written a trainer from scratch, but you should understand what the knobs do and why they matter
Strong Python skills and comfort with the modern AI stack (Hugging Face, inference engines, agent frameworks)
Experience in a customer-facing or consulting-adjacent technical role, or as a technical founder — you're comfortable in a room with a customer's engineering team figuring out what to build
Excellent written and verbal communication — you can write a clear environment spec, a compelling case study, and a useful Slack message to a frustrated customer
High agency and comfort with ambiguity. You don't wait for specs; you scope the problem, ship a solution, and iterate
Experience with agent frameworks and tooling (DSPy, LangGraph, MCP, Stagehand, browser automation)
Experience building or running LLM evaluation pipelines at scale (benchmarks, synthetic data generation, model grading)
Research experience — publications, open-source contributions, or benchmarks in ML/RL/agents
Familiarity with sandbox/code execution environments for agent evaluation
Web programming experience (React, TypeScript, Next.js) for building demos and customer-facing tooling
Cash Compensation Range of $150-300k + equity incentives
Flexible Work (San Francisco or hybrid-remote)
Visa Sponsorship & relocation support
Professional Development budget
Team Off-sites & conference attendance

We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
Security is the single highest-stakes function at Prime Intellect. Our customers — from frontier AI labs to enterprises — trust us with their most valuable assets: proprietary models, training data, and the compute that powers them. This role owns the security posture of everything we ship: the hosted RL training platform, distributed GPU infrastructure, liquid compute marketplace, and all customer-facing surfaces.
You'll be the first dedicated security hire and will define how we think about security as a company — from threat modeling and secure architecture to incident response and compliance. You'll work directly with engineering, research, and leadership to embed security into every layer of the stack, and you'll manage relationships with external penetration testers and security auditors to continuously validate our defenses.
Own threat modeling across our entire surface area: multi-tenant training infrastructure, sandboxed execution environments, API surfaces, and internal tooling
Design and implement zero-trust networking, identity, and access control across distributed GPU clusters and cloud infrastructure
Build secure-by-default patterns for our platform engineers — auth, secrets management, supply chain integrity, container hardening
Architect tenant isolation and data boundary enforcement for hosted RL training workloads (customers run arbitrary code in our environments)
Develop security frameworks specific to AI infrastructure: model weight protection, training data isolation, checkpoint integrity, gradient privacy
Secure the RL training loop end-to-end — from environment execution in sandboxes to reward signal verification and model artifact storage
Build detection and prevention for AI-specific attack vectors: prompt injection across agentic pipelines, model exfiltration, adversarial environment manipulation
Scope, manage, and run point on external penetration tests across our platform, hosted training infrastructure, and liquid compute layer
Build and maintain an internal red-teaming practice — automated and manual — targeting our most critical systems
Drive vulnerability management: triage, remediation SLAs, and root cause analysis
Build security monitoring and alerting across infrastructure (distributed clusters, Kubernetes, cloud) and application layers
Implement runtime security for containerized training workloads and sandboxed environments
Own incident response — build the playbooks, run the drills, lead the post-mortems
Design audit logging and forensic capability across all customer-facing systems
Drive SOC 2 Type II readiness and other compliance frameworks required by enterprise customers
Own the security narrative for customer-facing materials — questionnaires, architecture reviews, trust documentation
Partner with GTM to unblock enterprise deals that depend on security posture
5+ years in security engineering, infrastructure security, or offensive security roles — ideally at companies operating multi-tenant cloud or compute infrastructure
Deep experience with cloud security (GCP preferred), Kubernetes security, and container runtime hardening
Hands-on ability to read, write, and audit code in Python and Rust (or strong systems-level language)
Experience with network security in distributed systems — service mesh, mTLS, network segmentation across heterogeneous hardware
Proven track record managing external penetration tests and translating findings into engineering action
Strong fundamentals in cryptography, identity/access management, and secure software development lifecycle
Experience securing GPU infrastructure or ML training pipelines
Background in offensive security — CTFs, bug bounties, red team engagements

We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
You will own compute at Prime Intellect - the sourcing, economics, contracting, and strategic positioning of the GPU supply that powers everything we train, serve, and sell.
This is one of the most consequential roles at the company, and one of the most consequential compute roles in the industry. Compute is our product, and compute is the constraint that shapes what the open AI ecosystem can do. Every frontier lab is fighting for the same GPUs; your job is to make sure the open ecosystem has a leading seat at the table.
The decisions you make will shape the industry. Which neoclouds get the capital and commitments to scale. Which geographies become meaningful compute hubs. Which hardware generations get broad access versus staying locked inside closed labs. Which open models are economically possible to train and serve. You'll co-design the compute layer of the open model ecosystem alongside our research and engineering teams — deciding, together, what we train, on what, where, and at what cost structure.
You'll work directly with leadership team and founders of the neoclouds reshaping global compute, and with the research and engineering teams pushing the frontier of open post-training. You'll structure the commercial relationships that define the next several years of AI infrastructure, get first access to the latest generations of accelerators as they come online, and build the financial and operational architecture that turns a fragmented global supply market into Prime Intellect's durable advantage.
You need to be as comfortable modeling the unit economics of a three-year GB200 commitment against a volatile spot market as you are sitting with our research team to understand what an upcoming training run actually needs, or negotiating a nine-figure reserved capacity agreement with neocloud leadership.
Compute Strategy & Economics
Own the economics of compute end-to-end: the unit economics of every contract, the margin architecture across training and inference products, the long-term P&L consequences of today's supply bets
Partner with Finance and leadership on capital strategy — how much to commit, to whom, for how long, on which hardware, with what balance sheet exposure
Build the frameworks that turn supply decisions into clear financial outcomes, and that let us make multi-hundred-million-dollar bets with conviction under uncertainty
Shape the commercial architecture of the open compute ecosystem: how committed capacity, spot markets, credit structures, and partner economics fit together
Sourcing & Contracting
Own end-to-end procurement of GPU capacity globally — across hyperscalers, tier-one neoclouds, regional operators, and emerging providers in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia
Negotiate and close reserved capacity agreements, spot and burst arrangements, MSAs, DPAs, and order forms at nine- and ten-figure scale
Secure early access to the latest generations of accelerators (B200, GB200, and what comes next) — in the quantities we need, before our competitors
Build and maintain the senior relationships that make Prime Intellect the partner of choice for providers deciding where to allocate scarce capacity
Co-Design with Research & Engineering
Work closely with our research team to translate training roadmaps, RL workloads, and open model ambitions into concrete compute requirements — and back the other way, to surface what's possible given the supply we can secure
Partner with Engineering on acceptance testing, goodput validation, and the technical qualification of new providers and hardware
Sit at the table where the biggest calls get made: which open models we train, which customers we serve, which bets are worth the capital
Market Intelligence & Positioning
Track pricing, availability, and provider dynamics continuously across every major global market
Serve as the internal source of truth on the compute market — who's credible, who's mispriced, where supply is about to tighten, which providers will still exist in 18 months, where the next wave of capacity is coming online
Advise leadership on the strategic bets that define the company: which accelerators, which providers, which geographies, which contract structures, which moments to lean in hard
Strong business and financial instincts — you think natively in unit economics, margin structure, and capital allocation, and you can model the long-term P&L consequences of complex supply decisions
Deep fluency in the global AI compute market: you know the providers, the hardware generations and their real tradeoffs, the pricing dynamics, and where the market is going over the next 12–24 months
Enough technical understanding to be dangerous — you can push back on a vendor's spec sheet, read a cluster topology diagram, understand why two nominally identical clusters deliver different goodput, and have a real conversation with researchers about what their workloads need
Serious commercial chops: you've negotiated and closed contracts at meaningful scale, know how to find and use leverage, and understand how deal structure drives downstream economics
Comfortable operating at the intersection of finance, commercial, product, and engineering — and translating fluently between all of them
High ownership: you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Competitive Cash Compensation + meaningful equity
Flexible work (remote or San Francisco)

Professional development budget

We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
Your Role
Prime Intellect serves some of the most sophisticated AI teams in the world that depend on our compute and infrastructure to train and deploy production AI systems. The Customer Success Manager is the person who makes sure those customers succeed, scale, and keep building with us.
This is not a traditional Customer Success role. Our customers run large-scale training jobs, scale inference workloads against real production traffic, and depend on cluster reliability and performance the way most companies depend on their cloud provider. The work spans the technical and the commercial — you'll be reading Grafana dashboards and discussing cluster performance with a customer's ML infrastructure team in the morning, and partnering with Sales on a capacity expansion in the afternoon.
You'll own a portfolio of enterprise customers end-to-end and build the relationships that make Prime Intellect the partner of choice for their AI infrastructure.
Responsibilities
Customer Ownership
Own a portfolio of enterprise customers end-to-end — adoption, retention, expansion, and overall health
Build deep relationships with technical and executive stakeholders at each customer, from ML engineers to engineering leadership
Drive customer outcomes: faster time-to-value on first workloads, smooth scaling as their usage grows, and meaningful expansion as their AI ambitions expand
Technical Partnership
Understand each customer's training and inference workloads at a real technical level — what models they're training, what infrastructure they need, what their performance bottlenecks are
Partner with customers' engineering teams on cluster performance, capacity planning, workload optimization, and migration
Translate customer needs into clear, prioritized feedback for our Engineering and Product teams
Expansion & Renewals
Identify expansion opportunities ahead of the customer — anticipate scaling needs, surface new use cases, drive adoption of new products (Lab, Inference, additional compute capacity)
Partner with Sales on renewal conversations and growth motions
Maintain visibility into the economics of each customer relationship, in partnership with Finance and Compute
Operational Excellence
Serve as the first line for customer-facing operational issues — usage questions, capacity changes, SLA tracking, incident communications
Build the cross-functional connective tissue between Sales, Engineering, Finance, and customers
What We're Looking For
3–6 years in Customer Success, Technical Account Management, Solutions Engineering, or adjacent roles at infrastructure, cloud, or AI/ML companies
Strong technical fluency — comfortable reading dashboards, discussing infrastructure architecture, and engaging with customer engineering teams without a translator
Strong commercial instincts — you understand that Customer Success is a revenue function, not a support function, and you can drive real expansion alongside technical outcomes
Deep customer empathy combined with high judgment — you advocate for customers internally while making the calls that are right for the business
Excellent verbal and written communication, especially when explaining complex technical issues to non-technical stakeholders and vice versa
High ownership — you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
Comfortable in ambiguity and speed; this market doesn't slow down
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Bonus:
Direct experience at a cloud provider, AI infrastructure company, or compute marketplace
Familiarity with GPU economics, training and inference workloads, or compute consumption patterns
Background as a TAM or Solutions Architect at a hyperscaler (AWS, GCP, Azure) or specialized cloud provider
Working knowledge of usage-based pricing, capacity commitments, and consumption-based contracts
You've been an early Customer Success hire at a high-growth company
What We Offer
Cash Compensation Range of $160,000 – $200,000 + meaningful equity
Flexible work (remote or San Francisco)
Visa sponsorship and relocation support
Professional development budget

A front-row seat to building the infrastructure layer for open AI
Prime Intellect is building the open superintelligence stack: the infrastructure frontier AI labs build internally, made available to every ambitious AI team.
Our platform, Lab, unifies compute, environments, evaluations, secure sandboxes, high-performance training, and deployment into one full-stack system for post-training at frontier scale - from SFT and RL to tool use, agent workflows, and continuously improving production models. We are building open frontier AI: open-source models trained end to end for long-horizon tasks like autonomous research, and the full-stack platform our own research team uses to build them. The next generation of AI companies, enterprises, and research teams do not just need more GPUs. They need the ability to turn their own workflows, tools, data, and feedback loops into superintelligence they own.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators — including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
Every serious AI team evaluating infrastructure asks the same question: will this actually run my workload better, faster, or cheaper than what I have today? Most vendors answer with slides. We want to answer with benchmarks on the customer's own workload, and then design the production architecture that delivers on them.
As our Founding Solutions Architect, your mission is to make Prime Intellect the technical winner in every deal. You will own the path from workload discovery through architecture, benchmark, proof of concept, and production design. You will sit with customers' ML engineers to understand what they are actually training and serving — GPU type, cluster requirements, networking, utilization and performance objectives — then design the right architecture on Prime infrastructure, run the POC against their baseline and the competitive alternatives, and turn latency, throughput, utilization, and cost results into a technical business case that holds up under scrutiny.
This is a founding role. There is no playbook yet for how we prove technical wins; you will write it. The benchmark methodologies, reference architectures, and POC frameworks you build will become how Prime Intellect sells to every lab and enterprise that follows.
Technical Discovery & Architecture
Lead deep technical discovery across training, post-training, and inference workloads
Understand each customer's GPU requirements, cluster topology, networking, storage, utilization patterns, and performance objectives
Design customer architectures on Prime infrastructure that meet those objectives and are ready for production
Partner with engineering on migration and deployment requirements so what we design is what gets shipped
Benchmarks, POCs & the Technical Business Case
Own workload benchmarks and proofs of concept against customer baselines and competitive alternatives
Translate latency, throughput, utilization, and cost results into a defensible technical business case for ML engineers and executive buyers alike
Set the standard for benchmark quality: methodology, reproducibility, and honest comparison
Drive time to technical validation down with every deal
Playbooks & Platform Adoption
Develop repeatable benchmark and reference-architecture playbooks that scale beyond you
Support technical evaluation and adoption of Model Factory, bringing customers from compute onto the full training stack
Feed what you learn from customer workloads back into product and research priorities
Strong ML infrastructure, distributed systems, cloud, or GPU-compute background
Working knowledge of modern training and inference stacks, CUDA/GPU environments, and model-serving patterns
Customer-facing experience in solutions architecture, sales engineering, forward-deployed engineering, or a similar role
Ability to communicate fluently with both ML engineers and executive stakeholders — and to know which conversation you are in
A strong bias toward proving claims with real customer workloads and benchmarks rather than slides
High ownership — you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Bonus:
Hands-on experience running or optimizing large-scale distributed training (FSDP, Megatron, DeepSpeed, or similar) or high-throughput inference (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM)
Experience benchmarking across hardware generations (H100, H200, GB200) and interconnects (InfiniBand, RoCE)
Background at a GPU cloud, neocloud, hyperscaler AI team, or frontier lab infrastructure team
Experience building a solutions or forward-deployed function from scratch
Technical win rate · POC-to-commercial conversion · Time to technical validation · Benchmark quality · Deployment readiness · Model Factory technical attach
You will be the technical face of Prime Intellect in every deal that matters, working directly with the ML teams at labs and enterprises deciding where to build — and with our own research and engineering teams on what the platform needs to win. You will see more real-world training and inference workloads in a year than most engineers see in a career, and you will define how a new category of infrastructure proves itself.

Compute is the scarcest input in AI, and the companies that secure it on the right terms will define the next decade. But the labs and enterprises we work with are not buying GPU hours. They are buying the ability to execute an AI roadmap: train the next model, post-train it on their own data, serve it in production, and do it again. Selling to them means understanding that roadmap and structuring a multi-year commitment around it.
As a Strategic Account Executive, you will own strategic customer acquisition and expansion for Prime Intellect's GPU infrastructure and Model Factory platform. You will build and close a portfolio of AI-native and enterprise accounts, working with CTOs, Heads of AI/ML, infrastructure leaders, and economic buyers to translate their training, post-training, and inference plans into committed capacity. You will construct deals around spend, term, workload expansion, and platform adoption — not feature checklists — and then grow every landed customer from compute into the full training stack.
You will work alongside our Solutions Architects on discovery, benchmarks, and POCs, and directly with leadership on the commercial structures that define how this category gets sold. The deals you close will shape what Prime Intellect commits to, builds, and becomes.
Strategic Acquisition
Build and close a portfolio of strategic AI-native and enterprise accounts
Develop relationships with CTOs, Heads of AI/ML, infrastructure leaders, and economic buyers
Translate customers' training, post-training, and inference roadmaps into multi-year GPU capacity commitments
Partner with Solutions Architects on technical discovery, benchmarks, and POCs so every deal is won on proof
Deal Construction & Expansion
Build commercial proposals around committed spend, term length, workload expansion, and Model Factory adoption
Negotiate and close seven- and eight-figure agreements with economics that work for both sides
Expand landed compute customers into Model Factory, post-training, inference, and additional capacity
Partner with Compute and Finance on supply, pricing, and margin so what you sell is what we can deliver
Pipeline Discipline
Maintain rigorous qualification, forecasting, and next-step discipline across the portfolio
Report pipeline, forecast, and deal status to leadership with accuracy you stand behind
Feed market, competitive, and customer signal back into product, pricing, and compute strategy
Proven success selling highly technical infrastructure: cloud, GPU compute, AI/ML platforms, or adjacent developer infrastructure
Experience closing seven-figure enterprise agreements; eight-figure strongly preferred
Credibility with technical executives and ML/infrastructure teams — you can hold the room with a Head of AI and an engineer at the same time
Ability to sell economics, architecture, and strategic partnership, not just software features
Strong deal construction and negotiation skills, including multi-year commitments and consumption-based structures
Comfort operating in an early-stage, high-accountability environment where you own the number
High ownership — you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Bonus:
Experience selling GPU capacity, reserved compute, or AI training infrastructure specifically
Background at a GPU cloud, neocloud, hyperscaler AI organization, or AI platform company
Existing relationships with AI labs, AI-native startups, or enterprise AI leaders
Experience as an early sales hire who helped define the playbook, pricing, and segmentation
Committed contract value · Contract duration · New strategic customers · GPU capacity sold · Model Factory attach · Post-training and inference expansion · Forecast accuracy
You will sell one of the most consequential products in technology to the people building the next generation of AI, in a market where the commercial playbook is still being written. You will work directly with leadership on deal structures that define the category, develop a network across the labs and enterprises shaping the industry, and build a track record in AI infrastructure sales that is increasingly rare and valuable.

We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
Your Role
Compute is the foundational input of everything Prime Intellect does — and right now, the picture of our compute supply, demand, and economics lives across spreadsheets, partner conversations, and people's heads. This role changes that.
As Compute Intelligence Engineer, you'll build the data infrastructure and intelligence platform that gives the entire company a live, accurate picture of our compute: what we have, what's coming online, where our bottlenecks are, and how supply maps to demand. This is a hands-on data engineering build — you'll stand up the warehouse, write the pipelines that pull from our compute telemetry, billing systems, partner data, and CRM, model that data into a clean and trustworthy source of truth, and turn it into dashboards and a queryable layer the whole company relies on.
This is a builder-first role with a clear business purpose. You won't be building data infrastructure for its own sake — you'll be building the system that lets our Compute Partnerships team, Growth team, and Research team operate from the same source of truth. When Growth needs to know what capacity is coming online next quarter, when Compute Partnerships needs to understand our utilization against commitments, when Research needs to scale a training run — the platform you build is what they'll turn to.
You'll be early in this seat, and the foundations you lay will be the data backbone the company scales on.
Responsibilities
Build the Compute Intelligence Platform
Stand up Prime Intellect's data warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, or equivalent) and the pipelines that feed it — compute telemetry, billing and usage data, partner and supply data, CRM, and financial systems
Build the data models and transformations (dbt or equivalent) that turn raw data into a clean, queryable, trustworthy source of truth
Build dashboards and reporting that give the company a live picture of compute supply, demand, utilization, upcoming capacity, and bottlenecks
Build a queryable, AI-accessible layer on top of the warehouse so teams across the company can answer their own questions without going through a data analyst
Supply & Demand Intelligence
Build the data systems that track our compute supply end-to-end: what we have, what's committed, what's coming online, and what's utilized vs. idle
Develop the views and models that surface where our bottlenecks are — and make upcoming supply legible to the teams that depend on it
Connect supply data to demand signals so the company can see, in one place, how capacity maps to what we're selling and building
Cross-Functional Enablement
Serve as the data backbone connecting Compute Partnerships, Growth, and Research — building the systems that let them operate from shared, accurate information
Partner with Growth on understanding upcoming supply and how it maps to what they can sell
Partner with Compute Partnerships on utilization, commitments, and supply tracking
Partner with Research on scaling needs and capacity planning
Operational Reliability
Build pipelines and systems that run unattended, stay in sync, and fail gracefully
Establish the data quality, documentation, and infrastructure standards that let the data layer scale with the company
Partner with Engineering on shared infrastructure, security, and data standards
What We're Looking For
3–7+ years in data engineering, analytics engineering, GTM/growth engineering, or similar roles where you've built data infrastructure that served real business outcomes
Strong technical skills: comfortable building and maintaining data warehouses, writing production-quality pipelines (Python, SQL), modeling data (dbt or equivalent), and connecting disparate systems via APIs
Experience with modern data stack tooling — Snowflake / BigQuery / Databricks, dbt, orchestration (Airflow, Dagster, etc.), and BI/dashboarding tools
A builder's instinct paired with business judgment — you don't just build what's asked; you understand the business well enough to build the right thing
Comfortable being the data backbone for cross-functional teams — translating between business needs and the systems that serve them
Familiarity with modern AI tooling and an interest in building AI-accessible data layers (natural-language querying, LLM-powered analytics) that let non-technical teams self-serve
High ownership — you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
Comfortable in ambiguity and speed; you'll be defining what the data layer looks like from scratch
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Bonus:
Experience as an early data hire who built a company's data infrastructure from scratch
Familiarity with GPU economics, compute infrastructure, cloud telemetry, or AI/ML workloads
Background in GTM engineering, growth engineering, or revenue/operations data
Experience building LLM-powered or natural-language data interfaces
Working knowledge of usage-based / consumption-based business models and the data they generate

Talent is the single highest-leverage input at Prime Intellect. Every frontier researcher, systems engineer, and operator we hire compounds directly into what the open ecosystem can build. This role owns that compounding.
As Head of Talent, you will own recruiting end-to-end as we scale from ~40 to ~100 people over the next twelve months, weighted heavily toward frontier research and infrastructure engineering — the two most competitive talent markets in tech. You will personally run our most important searches, source candidates who are not on the market, and close them against offers from the largest labs.
Beyond individual hires, you will define how Prime Intellect recruits at scale: building the sourcing engine, closing playbooks, interview architecture, and compensation frameworks that let us maintain an exceptionally high bar while moving faster than incumbents. This is a founding recruiting leader role reporting directly to the founders, with full ownership of the function, meaningful equity, and a direct line into every strategic hiring decision.
Own the Highest-Priority Searches
Personally run our most important searches across research, infrastructure, and leadership hires
Source candidates directly — through your own network, cold outreach, and targeted campaigns — for roles where inbound alone will never surface the right person
Close candidates against competing offers from frontier labs, hyperscalers, and top AI startups
Serve as a trusted partner to the founders and hiring managers on candidate strategy, leveling, and offer construction
Build the Sourcing & Closing Engine
Design and run the sourcing motion for frontier research talent (labs, PhD programs, top open-source contributors) and elite systems engineering talent (distributed systems, GPU infrastructure, ML systems)
Build closing playbooks that reflect what actually moves technical candidates: research autonomy, compute access, publication norms, equity, and mission
Stand up the tooling, data, and pipeline visibility we need to run 60+ hires per year without dropping quality
Define and enforce the hiring bar across the company as we scale
Systems, Team & Operational Scale
Hire and lead a small recruiting team over time (sourcers, coordinators, and eventually recruiters), staying deeply hands-on yourself
Build interview architecture — rubrics, calibration, debriefs, decision-making — that produces consistent hiring outcomes as more people participate
Own recruiting operations, candidate experience, and reporting end-to-end
Partner with finance and the founders on compensation philosophy, leveling, and equity strategy as we grow
5+ years of technical recruiting experience, with meaningful time at a frontier AI lab, top AI startup, or elite technical company
Direct experience recruiting ML researchers, frontier research talent, or elite systems / distributed engineers — not just \"technical roles\" broadly
Proven ability to source and close candidates who are not actively looking, against competing offers from top labs
Track record of personally owning senior and hard-to-fill searches end-to-end
Comfort operating as a player-coach: running your own searches while building the systems and eventually the team underneath you
Strong judgment on candidate quality and leveling; willingness to hold a high bar under pressure
High ownership, direct communication, and appetite for working closely with founders on the most consequential decisions in the company
Energized by building a recruiting function from the ground up in a fast-moving environment
Prior experience as a founding recruiter, Head of Recruiting, or senior recruiting lead at a fast-growing technical company
Existing network in the frontier AI research or GPU / ML infrastructure community
Experience closing candidates against top AI lab offers

The next generation of AI companies, enterprises, and research teams do not just need more GPUs. They need the ability to turn their own workflows, tools, data, and feedback loops into superintelligence they own.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators — including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
You'll help build Prime Agent, our open-source coding and research agent. This is a generalist software engineering role spanning product development and the underlying agent systems. You'll own features end-to-end, from design through deployment and monitoring, and ship at the pace of an early-stage company tackling one of the most important problems in AI.

Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators — including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
No one builds the AI infrastructure stack alone. The GPU makers, cloud and datacenter providers, model labs, and enterprise platforms we work with are core to how we reach customers and how we ship. The partnerships that matter in this industry are not logos on a slide — they are shipped integrations, field teams that can actually sell and support a joint solution, and customers who win because both companies showed up together. Very few people know how to make those partnerships real at the technical and commercial level simultaneously.
You will own our most strategic technical alliances end to end: NVIDIA, hyperscalers, neoclouds, datacenter operators, and the next wave of partners across models, tooling, and enterprise. You will be the person a partner's engineering, product, and field teams trust to turn a signed MOU into something that moves pipeline and ships product.
The work sits at the intersection of technical depth and commercial execution. You will go deep enough on GPUs, networking, distributed training, and inference stacks to hold your own with partner engineers, and broad enough to run joint go-to-market, executive relationships, and a scalable partner program. You will scope proofs of concept with joint customers, build the enablement that lets partner sellers position us, secure marketplace and co-sell motions, and bring partner roadmaps back into our product and research decisions.
The partnerships you build will directly shape how Prime Intellect reaches the labs, enterprises, and research teams building on our stack — and how fast we can deliver compute, training, and environments to them.
Partner Relationship Management
Own 3–5 tier-1 technical partnerships (e.g., NVIDIA, hyperscalers, neoclouds, datacenter operators) as the single accountable lead
Build relationships across the partner org at every level: alliance managers, developer relations, product and engineering, field sales, and executives
Run quarterly business reviews and set joint annual plans with clear goals, owners, and metrics
Navigate partner programs (e.g., NVIDIA Inception, NPN, cloud marketplace and co-sell programs) to unlock credits, benefits, tiering, and visibility
Negotiate and manage partnership agreements, MOUs, and joint commitments with Legal and Finance
Joint Customer Engagement
Lead and join joint customer calls with partner account teams, from discovery through technical deep dives and close
Act as the technical bridge in deals: map customer workloads to the joint solution, scope proofs of concept, and remove blockers
Coordinate escalations across both companies when joint customers hit issues
Build a pipeline of partner-sourced and partner-influenced opportunities, and report on it
Technical Integration & Product Feedback
Drive joint technical work: integrations, benchmarks, validated configurations, certifications, and optimizations on partner hardware and software
Get early access to partner roadmaps, hardware, and SDKs, and translate them into product opportunities for us
Bring partner and customer feedback into our product and research roadmaps, and advocate for our needs in the partner's roadmap
Write or co-author reference architectures, technical blog posts, and solution briefs
Training & Enablement
Build enablement content for partner field teams: pitch decks, battlecards, demo scripts, reference architectures, and FAQs
Deliver live and recorded training to partner sellers, solution architects, and support engineers so they can position, sell, and troubleshoot our products
Enable our own team on partner products, roadmaps, and programs
Track enablement reach and impact: people trained, certified, and actively co-selling
Joint Go-to-Market & Marketing
Plan co-marketing: launches, case studies, webinars, joint press, and partner showcase placements
Represent Prime Intellect at partner events and industry conferences (e.g., NVIDIA GTC), including talks, booths, and customer meetings
Secure marketplace listings and co-sell motions with cloud and channel partners
Partner Program & Strategy
Identify and evaluate new strategic partners across compute, models, tooling, and enterprise
Design a scalable partner program: tiers, benefits, onboarding, and playbooks
Own partnership metrics and report regularly to leadership on revenue impact, pipeline, and technical milestones
7+ years in technical partnerships, alliances, solutions architecture, or technical business development, with at least 3 years managing strategic partners
Direct experience working with NVIDIA, a hyperscaler (AWS, GCP, Azure), or a GPU cloud provider — ideally on the partner side of that relationship
Strong technical grounding in AI infrastructure: GPUs and accelerators, networking (InfiniBand, RoCE), distributed training and inference, and the CUDA and PyTorch ecosystem
A track record of co-selling — you've run joint customer calls and closed or influenced deals alongside partner field teams
Experience building and delivering technical enablement to sales and engineering audiences
Comfortable presenting to executives, engineers, and conference audiences
Able to run a complex, multi-stakeholder relationship with little oversight, and to say no when a joint initiative isn't worth it
Clear, concise writer: plans, briefs, and technical docs
High ownership — you see gaps and build the fix before anyone asks
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, automation, and programmatic tools to move faster
Bonus:
Prior experience inside NVIDIA's partner or developer ecosystem, or inside a hyperscaler's AI/ML partner organization
Hands-on background as a solutions architect or ML engineer before moving into partnerships
Experience standing up a partner program from scratch at an early-stage infrastructure company
Existing relationships with alliance, field, and engineering teams at major compute providers
The AI infrastructure ecosystem is being assembled right now, and the partnerships that define it are still being written. You'll own the relationships that determine how Prime Intellect reaches the market, work directly with leadership and the engineering team on what we build and with whom, and sit in the room with partner executives and engineers at the companies shaping the next decade of compute. The network and expertise you build here are increasingly rare and valuable across the industry.

A front-row seat to building the infrastructure layer for open AI
Prime Intellect is building the open superintelligence stack: the infrastructure frontier AI labs build internally, made available to every ambitious AI team.
Our platform, Lab, unifies compute, environments, evaluations, secure sandboxes, high-performance training, and deployment into one full-stack system for post-training at frontier scale - from SFT and RL to tool use, agent workflows, and continuously improving production models. We are building open frontier AI: open-source models trained end to end for long-horizon tasks like autonomous research, and the full-stack platform our own research team uses to build them. The next generation of AI companies, enterprises, and research teams do not just need more GPUs. They need the ability to turn their own workflows, tools, data, and feedback loops into superintelligence they own.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators — including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
We are a team of about 60, split between our San Francisco office and remote staff, and we are hiring quickly. Every researcher, engineer, and operator who joins us has a first day, a first week, and a first impression of how seriously we take the people who build here. Right now, that experience depends on a lot of people doing a lot of small things right. This role makes it a system.
You will own the employee lifecycle from the moment a candidate is scheduled for an interview through a new hire's first weeks. You will design every new hire's first day, run onboarding end to end, coordinate recruiting logistics across multiple open searches, and help bring the team together in person. You will also be the person who looks at how this function works and makes it faster, more reliable, and more personal — including where AI tools and automation can take the repetitive parts off your plate so you can spend your time on the parts that only a person can do.
This is an in-person role based in our San Francisco office, reporting to our Executive Business Partner and working closely with the Head of Talent, hiring managers, IT, and finance.
Onboarding & Employee Experience
Design the first-day schedule and experience for every new hire so they feel welcomed and productive from day one, with a white-glove approach for executive hires
Set up desks and equipment before day one: laptop, monitor, welcome kit in place; coordinate provisioning, accounts, and tool access with IT
Coordinate finance onboarding — payroll, benefits enrollment, expense tools, company card — and office access: door access, building entry, and meal program
Complete required onboarding steps accurately and on time: background checks, I-9 verification, employee records, and HRIS setup
Identify immigration and visa needs early, route them to the right people, and track them to resolution
Maintain and continuously improve the onboarding system so every hire gets a consistent, well-run first week
Support offboarding: recover equipment and remove access
Recruiting Coordination
Own interview scheduling across multiple open roles so every candidate and interviewer shows up informed, prepared, and on time
Book travel and host candidates for onsite interviews and work trials, creating a warm, human candidate experience
Keep candidates and hiring teams informed throughout the process with timely, clear communication
Maintain Ashby as the single source of truth: stage updates, candidate notes, and pipeline hygiene
Own scheduling timelines and SLAs, surface risks early, and keep recruiters and hiring managers in the loop
Systems, Culture & Team Operations
Find smarter, faster ways to run this function, including automating repetitive work with AI tools
Track open hiring and onboarding tasks and follow through on every commitment
Contribute to an in-person culture that builds connection across in-office and remote teams
Help plan and run team onsites and offsites, including attendee logistics and travel
Take on recruiting operations and sourcing projects as the function grows
New hires feel expected and cared for. Before day one, they know where to go, what to expect, and who to ask for help.
Laptops arrive on time, accounts work, schedules are clear, and first-week travel is arranged. You check directly with each new hire rather than assuming everything is set.
Compliance steps — background checks, I-9s, records — are complete and accurate without anyone having to chase them.
Recruiting, IT, managers, and office teams know what they own. You spot delays and resolve them before they affect a start date.
Trackers, checklists, and communications stay current as hiring volume grows.
2+ years in recruiting coordination, people operations, HR, or a similar high-volume coordination role
Proactive coordination: you can juggle many starts, owners, and deadlines without losing the details, and you follow up before anyone has to ask
Real care for the employee and candidate experience — a warm welcome is built from both thoughtful communication and reliable execution
Comfort managing background checks, I-9 verification, employee records, and HRIS setup, and handling sensitive information with discretion, including for senior and executive candidates
Cross-functional follow-through: you make ownership clear and stay with an issue until it's resolved
Process improvement instinct: you spot recurring gaps in a checklist, handoff, or message and fix them
Highly skilled in tools like Google Calendar, Slack, and Notion, with demonstrated ability to handle high-volume work efficiently
AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs and automation to take repetitive work off your plate
Low ego, high ownership — as willing to improve a workflow as to track down a delayed laptop
Able to work in person in our San Francisco office
Bonus:
Experience with Ashby or another modern applicant tracking system
Experience running onboarding at a fast-growing startup
Experience coordinating immigration or visa processes with outside counsel
You will shape how every person who joins Prime Intellect experiences their first weeks, at a company where the people being onboarded are among the best researchers and engineers in the world. You will build the people operations foundation from an early stage, work directly with leadership and the Head of Talent, and have real room to grow into recruiting operations, people operations, or wherever your strengths take you as the company scales.

Our platform, Lab, brings together compute, environments, evaluations, sandboxes, training, and deployment so teams can build and improve models around their own workflows. We build open frontier models ourselves and make the infrastructure behind that work available to other AI teams. Our ambition is to give every ambitious team the ability to own its intelligence.
We're looking for people who want to work close to frontier research, build real infrastructure, and help shape a market that's still taking form.
As our first Product Marketing Lead, you'll fully own the zero to one build of the product marketing function at Prime Intellect. You'll help define how customers understand what we're building, why it matters, and where it fits in their work. That means shaping a new category while making the value of our products concrete enough for a customer to act on today.
Our primary commercial motion is sales-led. You'll work directly with customers, founders, Sales, Product, Applied Research, and Engineering to find the use cases that resonate, build the sales narrative, and turn early customer results into proof. You'll own positioning and messaging as a living body of work, testing it in real conversations and changing it as we learn.
This is a hands-on role on a small team. You'll set direction and write the first version yourself, from a product page to a launch story to the deck for tomorrow's customer meeting.
Define and evolve our product positioning and category narrative. Help customers understand what open post-training infrastructure makes possible, why they need it, and why Prime Intellect is the right partner.
Turn technical capabilities into clear messaging for developers, AI teams, and the people making buying decisions. Build the core narrative for Prime Intellect's Open SuperIntelligence Stack and the Model Factory offering via product pages and use-case stories that connect our long-term ambition to problems customers have today.
Build a regular practice of customer interviews, sales-call participation, and win/loss analysis. Learn how customers describe their problems, what triggers a buying decision, and where our story falls short.
Test and revise messaging based on what you hear and what moves opportunities forward. Bring those insights to Product, Engineering and Applied Research to sharpen target use cases, inform packaging, and help distinguish repeatable needs from one-off requests.
Own product launches from positioning and audience selection through launch content, seller readiness, and follow-through. Work with Marketing and Sales to turn each launch into relevant customer conversations and qualified opportunities.
Build the materials sellers need to win: pitch decks, demos with technical partners, competitive guidance, objection handling, and customer proof. Stay close to live opportunities, join calls when useful, and keep improving the materials based on how customers respond.
Turn early customer work into case studies, references, and clear accounts of what changed for the customer. Build design-partner relationships that strengthen our story and feed learning back into the product.
Establish the first product marketing processes and priorities. Measure whether our work helps customers understand the product, progress through evaluation, buy, and expand their use. Use AI tools and agents to accelerate research, synthesis, and production while keeping a high bar for accuracy and craft.
8+ years of product marketing or closely related experience, including substantial experience marketing technical products built for developers, engineers, or AI teams.
Experience taking a product or product marketing function from zero to one. You've built positioning, launches, and sales materials when the audience, category, or playbook was still being defined.
A track record supporting a sales-led motion. You've worked directly with sellers and technical partners on real opportunities, and can point to messaging and materials that helped customers make a buying decision.
Strong customer research instincts. You can show how customer conversations changed your positioning, challenged an assumption, or led you to focus on a different use case.
Technical fluency and curiosity. You can learn a complex product, explain how it works, and earn credibility with developers and researchers while making its value clear to a business buyer.
Excellent writing and strong editorial judgment. You can turn a dense technical discussion into a clear story without losing what makes the product distinctive.
Demonstrated, hands-on use of AI tools and agents in your work. We'll ask you to show us how you work.
Comfort with ambiguity and a bias toward shipping. You can choose what matters, produce a strong first version, and improve it as evidence comes in.
Experience with AI/ML infrastructure, post-training, reinforcement learning, evaluations, or agent platforms.
Experience helping define an emerging category or repositioning a technical product as the product and market evolved.
A technical background, hands-on product experience, or experience building a customer advisory or design-partner program.

Our platform, Lab, unifies compute, environments, evaluations, secure sandboxes, high-performance training, and deployment into one full-stack system for post-training at frontier scale - from SFT and RL to tool use, agent workflows, and continuously improving production models. We are building open frontier AI: open-source models trained end to end for long-horizon tasks like autonomous research, and the full-stack platform our own research team uses to build them. The next generation of AI companies, enterprises, and research teams do not just need more GPUs. They need the ability to turn their own workflows, tools, data, and feedback loops into superintelligence they own.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and exceptional AI, infrastructure, and enterprise operators, including Andrej Karpathy, Dwarkesh Patel, and leaders and founders from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, Thinking Machines, Together AI, SemiAnalysis, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, Airbnb, OpenRouter, Standard Intelligence, Fleet, Core Auto, and more. We are looking for people who want to build at the intersection of frontier research, real infrastructure, and go-to-market for a category that does not fully exist yet.
