About the role
- As a Principal Solution Specialist for Core Services, you operate at the front edge of CoreWeave's go-to-market motion for its foundational infrastructure.
- You are the field's voice into engineering, translating what early adopters need around cluster topology, RDMA networking, and scheduling into the priorities that shape CoreWeave's compute and networking roadmap.
Responsibilities
- Own the commercial and technical strategy for net new customer wins in core AI infrastructure, where GPU compute performance, cluster networking, and platform reliability are the primary buying triggers.
- Develop deal structures, technical playbooks, and benchmark narratives that help sales and SA teams accelerate compute-heavy and networking-sensitive opportunities.
- Engage directly with enterprise and research buyers as the authoritative voice on GPU cluster architecture, network fabric design, and the performance tradeoffs between instance types and topologies.
- Design the commercial framework for large-scale GPU reservation deals, including MFU modeling, cluster sizing, and network bandwidth commitments that support large enterprise closings.
- Partner with capacity, infrastructure, and networking teams to maintain a competitive edge on compute density, interconnect performance, and platform reliability across active and prospective customer deployments.
- Family-Forming support provided by Carrot
Requirements
- 10+ years of experience in HPC, data center infrastructure, or GPU cluster engineering, with a track record of applying that expertise to drive customer outcomes and revenue.
- 5+ years working with large-scale GPU clusters (NVIDIA A100/H100/H200 or AMD MI300X), RDMA networking, and distributed training frameworks in a customer-facing or deal-shaping capacity.
- Deep working knowledge of high-speed network fabrics (InfiniBand, RoCE, and NVLink) and how interconnect topology, bandwidth, and latency impact distributed training and inference at scale.
- Experience deploying and tuning large-scale Kubernetes clusters for GPU workloads (NVIDIA GPU Operator, MIG, time-slicing) and positioning platform capabilities against customer performance and scalability requirements.
- Strong understanding of compute instance types, CPU-GPU memory bandwidth, NVMe storage tiers, and power and cooling considerations as they relate to workload efficiency and enterprise deal structure.
- Familiarity with distributed training frameworks (PyTorch FSDP, Megatron-LM, DeepSpeed) and how cluster architecture decisions impact training throughput, fault tolerance, and overall MFU.
- Experience driving new business or shaping product strategy in industries with extreme compute demands, such as large-scale AI model training, genomics, financial risk modeling, or government and defense HPC.
- Advanced degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience with a demonstrated ability to operate at the intersection of technical architecture and commercial strategy.
