Solutions Architect, Frontier AI Startups

The companies defining the future of AI are a small number of startups training,

tuning, and operating models at scale. They are run by ambitious founders, who

solve the hardest problems across a variety of different industries. They are

moving fast, operating at the edge of what technology can do, and defining the

possibilities of computing for years to come.

We are looking for technical builders who are passionate about helping startups

at the frontier of AI to grow. This role requires someone who is equally

comfortable in deep architectural conversations and advisory discussions. For

someone who understands that for a startup, the right technical decision and the

right business decision are rarely separate.

In this position, you will work directly with a portfolio of frontier AI

startups, helping them architect, train, fine-tune, and deploy AI systems at

scale. Your conversations will range from low-level discussions about chip types

to high-level explorations of advanced prompt engineering.

Your work will extend beyond individual customer relationships. You will serve

as a direct feedback channel to product teams, translating patterns you observe

across your portfolio into concrete input on what should be built and improved.

You will contribute to the broader technical community through written content

and conference presentations, sharing knowledge at a scale that one-on-one work

alone cannot reach.

A day in the life
