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 a Compute Trader to accelerate supply and demand matching on our platform. This is an Individual Contributor role reporting to the Head of Infrastructure.

The Infrastructure team sits at the core of our infrastructure. 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
• Match incoming leads from our sales team with internal capacity and external capacity in the market
• Maximize utilization of our compute resources
• Source and onboard new compute suppliers across the globe
• Source capacity based on customer needs and market trends
• Solve customer and supplier problems in a fast-moving, dynamic market
• Understand technical and commercial differences between suppliers to optimize our
capacity funnel
• Develop a proactive compute strategy informed by market intelligence
• Negotiate cost with suppliers and other vendors
• Create and implement processes around capacity planning

What We're Looking For
• 2+ years in cloud sales, GPUs, data centers, or a related field
• Existing network of contacts in the compute market (providers, brokers, or buyers)
• 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.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
