Beam, New York, New York
We’re hiring a Head of Compute Operations to help us onboard more compute to our platform. You’ll work directly with data center operators, OEMs, suppliers, and compute providers to evaluate, test, and contract new capacity to the platform.
How we work
We’re a small team together in the office at least 4 days a week. You’ll work directly with the founders on every major deal and deployment. Expect occasional travel (20%) to visit datacenter sites.
Beam is building the fastest cloud runtime for AI. Our serverless runtime launches GPU-backed containers in under a second, powering apps that scale to millions of users. Ambitious startups and Fortune 100 companies use Beam to host custom ML models and run LLM-generated code in secure sandboxes. We also provide dedicated GPU clusters to AI companies that need bare-metal capacity. That capacity comes from a network of datacenter partners and, increasingly, from our own hardware.
Beam serves millions of requests a day for hundreds of companies in production. We’re backed by Y Combinator, Tiger Global, and prominent developer-tool founders, including the founder of Snyk and the former CTO of GitHub.
