Full Job Description
How We Operate
  • Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.
  • Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
  • First principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.
  • Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.
The Supply Chain Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on
  • Supply tens of gigawatts of compute, the largest build out of compute in history. Qualify and dual-source across every critical equipment category, with lead-time and capacity thresholds tied directly to the forward build pipeline.
  • Make supply chain the reason we build faster than anyone. Our modular build redefines speed in this industry, and it lives or dies on supply chain. Keep procurement permanently off the critical path so schedule compression stays our advantage, not our constraint.
  • Build the most accurate supply chain prediction modelling that exists. Use the frontier of AI to forecast lead times, demand, and disruption with a precision the industry has never had, and turn that foresight into a structural edge.
Role Scope
  • Execute purchasing across assigned categories: POs cut same-day, confirmations chased, and deliveries landed on schedule.
  • Own the order book: statuses current, exceptions escalated, and no silent slips.
  • Work vendor issues to ground: shortages, substitutions, and expedites, with the schedule impact quantified.
  • Keep the data clean in the ERP so planning and finance run on truth.
What We're Looking For
  • The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
  • You've been a buyer in a fast-moving supply chain and carried a heavy PO load without drops.
  • You chase confirmations like the schedule depends on it, because it does.
  • You've expedited critical parts through constrained suppliers.
  • Your ERP hygiene is a habit: right dates, right prices, right quantities.
  • You escalate with the facts assembled and a recommendation attached.
  • Bonus: NetSuite or Zip. Data center, construction, or electronics categories. Freight basics. Excel and SQL fluency.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
