The opportunity
AI needs a new infrastructure layer. We're building it at Modal.
What you'll do
Own end-to-end procurement of GPU and CPU capacity across hyperscalers, neoclouds, and datacenter operators
Build and maintain a strong pipeline of supplier relationships
Evaluate supply options on price, availability, hardware specs, networking capabilities, and SLA terms
Negotiate and close contracts: reserved capacity agreements, spot arrangements, MSAs, DPAs, and order forms
Work closely with our engineering teams to translate technical requirements into procurement specs
Track market pricing, availability trends, and supplier dynamics, and serve: as a trusted advisor to leadership on infrastructure procurement decisions
What they're looking for
- Fluency in the AI infrastructure landscape: hyperscalers, neoclouds, and the broader GPU supply market
- Technical understanding of what you're buying: GPU architectures (NVIDIA H100/H200/B200, etc.), networking (InfiniBand vs. RoCE, fabric topology), and SLA structures
- Strong commercial instincts. You know how to find leverage, structure a deal, and close it
- Ability to work cross-functionally with finance and engineering teams on: commercial terms and technical requirements
