About the Role This role owns the intersection of customer
demand and compute supply: forecasting how much capacity we need,
deciding which products/services get allocated capacity, and
building the systems to make those decisions repeatable. You will
work across GTM, Strategic Finance, and Infrastructure Engineering
to turn demand planning into a structured, data-driven function,
directly impacting revenue per GPU and how efficiently we scale our
compute fleet. Responsibilities Run demand forecasting in
partnership with GTM and Strategic Finance, translating customer
pipeline and usage data into the capacity signals that drive supply
planning decisions Create demand planning model based on existing
utilization and growth metrics Define Supply Plan to deliver on
demand forecast Partner with Strategic Finance on capital
allocation inputs, providing the demand and utilization data that
informs capacity investment decisions and revenue modeling Own
capacity allocation decisions, matching demand to available compute
resources and making trade-off recommendations Design and build
allocation tooling and dashboards, defining requirements, working
with engineering or using low-code tools to automate tracking of
customer commitments, capacity utilization, and reallocation

utilization, revenue per GPU, committed vs. available capacity) and
reporting that gives leadership and GTM visibility into allocation
status and risks Requirements 7 years of experience in capacity
planning, demand planning, revenue operations, supply chain or
infrastructure strategy within cloud, AI/ML, or a high-growth
technology environment, with a track record of building or scaling
a planning function Experience partnering with GTM teams to

configuration reviews Familiarity with GPU workload characteristics
(training vs. inference, model size, throughput/latency trade-offs)
and how they influence resource planning Background in building
dashboards or lightweight tooling to operationalize planning
