ABOUT BASETEN

Baseten powers mission-critical inference for the world's most dynamic AI companies, like Cursor, Notion, OpenEvidence, Abridge, Clay, Gamma, and Writer. By uniting applied AI research, flexible infrastructure, and seamless developer tooling, we enable companies operating at the frontier of AI to bring cutting-edge models into production. We're growing quickly and recently raised our $1.5B Series F https://www.baseten.co/blog/announcing-our-series-f/, led by Altimeter Capital, Conviction Partners, and Spark Capital. Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to ship AI products.

THE ROLE

Compute is one of the most capital-intensive and strategically important functions at Baseten. Every inference request we serve runs on capacity we have sourced, contracted, and financed, and the deals behind that capacity are growing in size and complexity.

As a member of the Strategic Compute Investments team, you will work on some of the largest and most complex compute investments. Working directly with our Head of Supply, Finance, and company leadership, you will structure, model, diligence, and help negotiate the large compute, data center, and infrastructure transactions that determine how fast and how profitably Baseten can grow.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own the analytical and structuring work behind major supply transactions, including multi-year capacity commitments, data center and powered land opportunities, and strategic partnerships

- Build the financial models that underwrite each deal, from unit economics and TCO through return, risk, and scenario analysis, and turn them into clear recommendations for leadership

- Design deal structures that balance cost, flexibility, and risk, including commitment terms, payment timing, prepayments, and financing options

- Lead diligence on counterparties and opportunities, coordinating across Finance, Legal, Engineering, and external advisors

- Track market pricing, capital flows, and financing trends across the compute and infrastructure landscape to inform strategy

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- 7-10 years of experience in investment banking, private equity, infrastructure or real estate investing, venture or growth investing, management consulting, or a comparable corporate finance or corporate development role

- Hands-on experience structuring, modeling, and executing complex transactions from first look through close

- Exceptional financial modeling and analytical skills, with the judgment to turn analysis into a clear recommendation

- Strong communication skills and comfort working directly with senior leadership and external counterparties

- High ownership and comfort with ambiguity: you want to build the process, not inherit one

- Genuine interest in AI infrastructure and the economics of compute

NICE TO HAVE

- Experience investing in or financing digital infrastructure, data centers, power, or energy

- Exposure to compute, cloud, or GPU markets, including capacity contracts or infrastructure financing

- Prior experience moving from a finance or investing seat into an operating role at a high-growth company

BENEFITS

- Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity

- (U.S. only) 100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents

- Flexible PTO policy including company wide Winter Break (our offices are closed from Christmas Eve to New Year's Day!)

- Paid parental leave

- Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot

- (U.S. only) Company-facilitated 401(k)

- Exposure to a variety of ML startups, offering unparalleled learning and networking opportunities.

Apply now to embark on a rewarding journey in shaping the future of AI! If you are a motivated individual with a passion for machine learning and a desire to be part of a collaborative and forward-thinking team, we would love to hear from you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
