Full Job Description
We are looking for a hands-on pricing professional who understands the realities of B2B hardware cost structures, supply dynamics, and deal-based pricing.

This role owns pricing strategy and business optimization for AMAX's AI, HPC, GPU, and server infrastructure solutions, operating at the intersection of cost structure, supply constraints, and customer-specific deal execution. The ideal candidate has hands-on pricing experience in B2B computing hardware and is comfortable making data-driven recommendations in a fast-paced, supply-constrained environment.

Primary Responsibilities
  • Own end-to-end pricing strategy across assigned product lines, including servers, GPU systems, and integrated infrastructure solutions.
  • Translate component-level cost structures (BOMs, GPU pricing, supplier terms) into competitive, profitable system pricing models.
  • Analyze market dynamics, competitive positioning, and customer demand to identify pricing and margin optimization opportunities.
  • Monitor pricing performance at product, customer, and deal levels; proactively adjust pricing based on market shifts, lifecycle stage, and supply conditions.
  • Support pricing negotiations with suppliers, partners, and internal stakeholders by providing cost transparency and scenario analysis.
  • Collaborate closely with sales, product, procurement, supply chain, and engineering teams to develop deal-specific pricing proposals.
  • Identify cost reduction and margin improvement opportunities across the supply chain and product configuration.
  • Prepare clear, executive-ready reports and recommendations to support business decisions.

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Engineering, or a related field.
  • 1-3 years of hands-on pricing or business analysis experience in the computing hardware industry (servers, GPUs, storage, networking, or related infrastructure).
  • Proven ability to work with complex cost structures and variable supplier pricing.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to turn data into practical pricing actions, not just reports.
  • High attention to detail with strong ownership and accountability.
  • Clear, confident communicator able to work cross-functionally.
  • Advanced Excel skills; experience with pricing, BI, or data analysis tools.

Nice to have:
  • Direct experience in B2B infrastructure, AI, or HPC solutions.
  • Familiarity with GPU ecosystems, accelerated computing, server configurations, and system-level pricing.
  • Experience supporting deal-based pricing in collaboration with sales teams.
  • Comfortable operating in environments with supply volatility and rapid cost changes.

Benefits
  • Medical, Dental, Vision Insurance
  • Flexible spending account
  • Health savings account
  • 401k match
  • Commuter benefits
  • Life and Accidental Insurance
  • Short- and Long-term Disability Insurance
