Job description
Modular is building a next-generation AI infrastructure platform that unifies fragmented application frameworks and hardware backends into a single, programmable system – making it easier to deploy AI in production while accelerating innovation across models and hardware
We’re looking for someone to drive the product vision for Modular’s cloud compute platform: a high-performance, scalable AI model-serving system designed for advanced GenAI developers, with deep visibility and control over performance, cost, and execution
In this role, you’ll work closely with engineering, program management, and technical writing to turn cutting-edge infrastructure into real customer value, evolve the platform from early adoption into a scalable cloud business, and collaborate with leading AI companies and hardware partners as we redefine modern AI infrastructure through a more transparent, performance-driven cloud
Own the product vision and strategy for Modular’s Cloud Platform, grounded in real customer workloads and measurable business outcomes
Partner with engineering and leading AI application teams to design and deliver a high-performance, transparent AI serving platform, giving customers deep visibility and control over performance, cost, and execution
Define and manage roadmaps, milestones, and success metrics, balancing near-term delivery with long-term platform evolution
Drive customer- and data-informed prioritization, translating market signals, performance insights, and feedback into clear product decisions and trade-offs
Work cross-functionally with engineering, program management, technical writing, design, and GTM to deliver a cohesive end-to-end cloud product experience
Engage directly with advanced enterprise customers and partners to validate direction, support early deployments, and feed learnings back into the platform
Identify and advance strategic integrations across hardware, cloud, and ecosystem partners while preserving performance and programmability as first-class principles
Benefits
A variety of fantastic health benefits (health, dental, vision insurance; life insurance etc) are available
A 401k plan with up to 5% match
Free tax advice on Carta
Generous work-from-home stipend of $1500 to help you improve your home office
Unlimited paid time off and flexible work hours
Preferred experience
Experience defining product vision, shaping roadmap trade-offs, and driving products from early adoption toward broader production use
Familiarity with security, privacy, and compliance considerations for cloud platforms
9+ years of product management experience, including significant work on technical cloud platforms, AI infrastructure, or data systems, or equivalent experience as a software or AI systems engineer
Strong understanding of cloud architectures and technologies (e.g., Kubernetes), and/or experience with AI infrastructure platforms such as PyTorch, vLLM, CUDA, Vertex AI, SageMaker, or similar systems
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, especially when working across technical and non-technical audiences
Strong analytical and systems-level thinking, with the ability to reason about performance, scalability, and cost
A growth-oriented mindset with a bias toward learning from customers, data, and real-world usage
Master’s degree or Ph.D. in Computer Science or related technical field
Experience developing, training, and/or deploying machine learning models into production environments
Have worked in or around startups before or have a strong understanding of the nature of fast-moving, highly dynamic teams
