About the Role

Compute is existential for Baseten. As AI inference infrastructure, our ability to serve customer traffic depends on a sophisticated, multi-layered compute and infrastructure supply chain. This role owns the inbound, supply-side deal surface: compute and infrastructure-services agreements, capacity commitments, and the contracting that keeps production online. You'll partner closely with our Commercial and other legal leads and may support Partnerships and strategic relationships.

Responsibilities

Own and lead negotiations for GPU compute, cloud capacity, and infrastructure-services agreements across Baseten's multi-provider stack, building flexibility, exit optionality, and enforceable SLAs.
Lead colocation, power, datacenter, and network contracting, including operational and resilience terms.
Map concentration risk and long-lead dependencies across the vendor portfolio and identify structural changes that unlock flexibility.
Manage the legal dimensions of strategic infrastructure and hardware relationships.
Apply export and trade-control flow-downs in compute and hardware agreements.
Build template library, SLA-credit playbooks, and intake workflows for self-service transactions.
May assist on other related transactions involving the financing and procurement of compute and capacity.
May support partnership and strategic-relationship workstreams.
May assist on M&A, vendor-integration, and other strategic or one-off transactions.
Pitch in on customer and Sales deals and escalate novel terms that create downstream risk.

Requirements

JD and active bar membership in good standing.
8+ years of technology-transactions experience with meaningful buy-side exposure to compute, cloud, hardware supply chain, datacenter, colocation, or critical-infrastructure contracting.
Fluency in availability and SLA constructs, capacity and route diversity, and how compute, colo, power, and network terms interact.
Experience with high-volume, template-driven vendor contracting.
Strong judgment about when vendor terms create downstream risk.
Commercially grounded communicator who can translate infrastructure concepts into clear risk calls and partner deeply with Engineering, Infra, and Finance.
Ability to learn, build, and master AI tooling and systems.
Desire to become a recognized thought leader in your field.
