About Nebius:
Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.
Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.
Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.
This role sits at the intersection of deep ML engineering and product impact. You'll spend roughly half your time in the field — helping new customers move from POC to production, running technical onboarding, and working hands-on through their ML stack. The other half you'll spend building — prototyping applied AI use cases that show what's possible on the platform, going deep on emerging techniques before they're mainstream, and turning that expertise into concrete product direction.
This is not a presales role. You get your hands dirty every day.
What success looks like in 12 months
- The product and sales teams have a library of working, polished demos they reach for on calls
- Enterprise customers you've touched have meaningfully faster time-to-value than those you haven't
- At least 2–3 product changes were shipped because of feedback you originated
- The team understands where applied AI is heading 6–12 months from now, partly because you told them
- Build prototypes and demos across the product portfolio — serverless inference, databases, MLflow, MLOps, and vertical use cases in Physical AI and HCLS — that become assets for sales, product, and engineering teams
- Support new customers hands-on through POC design, technical onboarding, and validation; act as the bridge between their ML team and the platform during the critical first months
- Go deep on emerging applied AI — new training techniques, inference optimizations, agentic architectures, new frameworks — and turn findings into working prototypes, writeups, and product recommendations
- Feed the product roadmap with specific, grounded feedback; be the voice of "here's what broke in three customer POCs last month and here's what needs to change"
- Develop reusable technical assets — notebooks, reference architectures, benchmark results — that reduce onboarding friction at scale
- You've fine-tuned large models, debugged distributed training jobs, built production RAG or agentic pipelines, and optimized inference on GPU infrastructure — not just read about it
- You're fluent in the modern ML stack: PyTorch, HuggingFace, CUDA fundamentals, Kubernetes for ML, MLflow or equivalent, vector databases
- You've worked with enterprise ML teams — whether as a solutions engineer, customer engineer, or an ML engineer who collaborated closely with customers
- You read papers and implement them — not for credit, but because it's how you stay sharp
- You communicate with calibration: you can explain activation checkpointing tradeoffs to an ML engineer in the morning and the cost implication to a CTO in the afternoon
- Experience in any of our vertical domains: Physical AI / robotics / simulation, HCLS (drug discovery, medical imaging, clinical NLP), or enterprise AI application development
- Familiarity with MLOps at scale (Kubeflow, Metaflow, Argo, Ray)
- Prior work at a cloud provider or AI infrastructure company
- You've shared technical work publicly — notebooks, talks, blog posts that people actually use
- Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
- Opportunities for professional growth within Nebius.
- Flexible working arrangements.
- A dynamic and collaborative work environment that values initiative and innovation.
