Description
OWN YOUR INTELLIGENCE 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. YOUR ROLE 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. RESPONSIBILITIES 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 geogra
