A well-funded and fast-growing AI company is building a next-generation platform for safe, performant, and cost-efficient AI agent deployment across enterprise environments.

They’ve recently closed a major funding round from leading institutional investors, bringing total funding to over $400M and valuing the business north of $3B. They’re now expanding their platform team to continue scaling their custom LLMs, inference infrastructure, and cloud-native agent tooling.

  • Monitor and optimize usage, latency, and cost across LLM and voice inference workloads
  • Drive decisions around GPU allocation, cloud cost efficiency, and workload orchestration
  • Define internal tools to support evaluation, logging, and performance observability
  • Work closely with GTM and operations to align platform performance with business goals
  • Partner with finance and leadership on pricing and margin strategy across the agent stack


Must Have

  • 7 years of product management experience
  • 2 years building AI/ML platform, LLMOps, or infra products
  • Deep understanding of inference, training, and cloud compute (AWS/GCP/Azure)
  • Experience aligning Eng, Research, and GTM around complex technical products
  • Familiarity with cloud cost modeling, GPU orchestration, and workload optimization
  • Analytical mindset, strong execution, and bias toward measurable outcomes


Nice To Have

  • Background in distributed systems, model evaluation, or GPU infra
  • Experience launching dev tooling or internal platforms for AI teams
  • Prior work with LLMs, voice agents, or AI-native applications
  • Strong technical intuition with hands-on engineering exposure a plus
