About GMI Cloud:

GMI Cloud is a fast-growing AI infrastructure company backed by Headline VC and one of only six cloud providers worldwide to earn NVIDIA’s prestigious Reference Platform Cloud Partner designation .

We operate 8 of our own GPU clusters across the U.S. and Asia, delivering a full spectrum of services from GPU compute service to AI model inference API solutions. As an NVIDIA Reference Platform Cloud Partner, our infrastructure meets the highest standards for performance, security, and scalability in AI deployments.

We empower AI startups and enterprises to “build AI without limits,” providing everything they need to prototype, train, and deploy AI models quickly and reliably.

As a Manager at GMI Cloud, you will be a key player in ensuring we have the resources needed to dominate the AI infrastructure market.

  • Supplier Relationship Management: Build and manage strong relationships with key suppliers, but always prioritize GMI Cloud's interests and be prepared to make tough decisions.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with engineering, finance, operations, and other teams to align sourcing strategies with business needs and ensure seamless execution.
  • Market Analysis: Conduct in-depth market research to identify emerging trends, new suppliers, and potential disruptions, and proactively adapt sourcing strategies

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Supply Chain Management, Engineering, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of proven experience in strategic sourcing, preferably in the technology or cloud computing industry.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence and persuade stakeholders at all levels and leverage internal resources.
  • A track record of delivering significant cost savings and supply chain improvements.
  • Exceptional negotiation skills and a relentless drive to secure the best possible deals.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to think strategically and execute tactically.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment and manage multiple priorities effectively.
