About the role

Your mission
As a compute markets associate you will play a crucial role in developing and strengthening our client and supplier relationships. In the day-to-day, your time will be divided between active business development, managing partnership negotiations, and communicating market insights to the team. The compute infrastructure sector evolves rapidly, and success depends on deep market intelligence and building credibility in the ecosystem. Both suppliers and buyers in the marketplace will value collaborators who understand their operational and financial requirements.

What You'll Do
Identify, approach and qualify GPU compute suppliers and independent data center operations in Europe and beyond, own the Supplier Outreach pipeline, and build a live view of where European pricing and availability sit week to week.

Support the compute sales process end-to-end from customer onboarding to first deal closed. Source and onboard AI startups and labs who need access to compute, qualify incoming demand requests and prepare offers for real compute.

Develop your own playbooks and define processes with the help of AI to build a scalable commercial strategy.

Manage the Supply Pool, Supplier Outreach and Infrastructure pipelines day to day, and feed clean CRM data into monthly investor reporting.

Extend our supply-demand matching so that a new capacity block automatically turns into priced offers to every relevant customer - taking that cycle from hours down to minutes.

Attend conferences, meet customers and suppliers, network at industry events and become a leader in European AI infrastructure.

What We're Looking For
Minimum 2 years GTM, business development, or sales experience

Proven ability to close commercial relationships (preferably in the tech industry)

Interest in markets: commodities, energy or any traded asset class is a plus

High sense of urgency and an operator mentality

High emotional intelligence and exceptional interpersonal skills

Confident building with AI tools

Fluent in English and German

Available from September 2026

Bonus points
Prior experience at a tech start-up, neocloud or hyperscaler or similar firms

Existing industry relationships with neoclouds, data center operators or GPU providers

Knowledge of infrastructure marketplace dynamics: capacity reservations, on-demand offering and different pricing models

Prior experience in scaling commercial operations from 0 to 1 in an emerging company

Why us?
Outstanding team: Work with some of the best engineers in the world, coming from hedge funds, big tech, AI startups and top universities

Once in a lifetime opportunity: Early-stage company in the fastest-growing market in the world

Ownership: Shape how European AI companies access GPU compute
