About Andromeda

Andromeda Cluster was founded by Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross to give early-stage startups access to the kind of scaled AI infrastructure once reserved only for hyperscalers.

We began with a single managed cluster — but it filled almost instantly. Since then, we’ve been quietly building the systems, network, and orchestration layer that makes the world’s AI infrastructure more accessible.

Today, Andromeda works with leading AI labs, data centers, and cloud providers to deliver compute when and where it’s needed most. Our platform routes training and inference jobs across global supply, unlocking flexibility and efficiency in one of the fastest-growing markets on earth. Our long-term vision is to build the liquidity layer for global AI compute. We are expanding to new frontiers to find the brightest that work in AI infrastructure, research and engineering.

The Opportunity

We're hiring the Head of Procurement & Supply Chain to enable supply on our platform. This is an Individual Contributor role reporting to the Head of Infrastructure.

The Infrastructure team sits at the core of our platform. We're responsible for acquiring and facilitating compute resources across the company, working closely with compute providers, sales, and technical teams to match compute supply with demand.

Today we have already established the fundamental layer of capacity with providers. As we scale, we are building the next layer—widening our network and liquidity, deepening the scope of our services, and accelerating our growth.

What You'll Do

• Understand the supply chain for compute across the globe and provide insight to our platform

• Enable GPU cluster build outs end to end

• Analyze Bill of Materials and provide advice on optimizing different trade offs

• Interact with OEMs, ODMs, integrators, parts suppliers across the ecosystem

• Negotiate with suppliers to create better economics

• Advise trade offs between SKUs, parts, cluster design

Supplier ecosystem

• Cultivate ODM/white-box channels

• Manage networking vendor relationships

• Storage partners (WEKA, VAST, Pure, DDN) and power/cooling/CDU vendors

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of experience in a relevant field, e.g. supply chain in compute

• Existing network of contacts in the compute market (OEMs, suppliers, neoclouds)

• Deep understanding of the GPU compute market—what drives supply and demand

• Strong written and verbal communication across technical and commercial stakeholders

• Sound judgment in decisions that directly impact revenue and cost

• Comfortable operating in ambiguity

• Self-directed and energetic, able to operate autonomously while collaborating cross-functionally

• Bias toward action in a fast-paced environment

Why You'll Love It Here

• Impact: Be in a critical team unlocking revenue for the wider company

• Real business: Meaningful revenue, complex transactions, and tangible impact

• High-growth environment: Get in early at a company in a massive market

• Ownership: Direct line to leadership and influence over how we scale

• Competitive compensation + meaningful equity

• Comprehensive benefits for you and your dependents, including healthcare, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k), and unlimited PTO

Andromeda Cluster is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
