**Why work at Higgsfield AI?** [Higgsfield AI](https://higgsfield.ai) is the fastest-scaling generative AI company in history, hitting $500M in annual revenue run rate, 25M+ users worldwide, 6M+ generations per day, and powering 390 of Fortune 500 brands. We’re building at the absolute frontier of AI-powered video creation and next-generation creative tools. Joining Higgsfield means becoming part of a high-impact team shaping the future of AI-native experiences, at a company that isn’t just moving fast, but rewriting what fast looks like. ## **What you’ll do** **Own GPU and compute economics** - Engage and maintain relationships post-deal close, leading delivery of strategic, co-owned initiatives (e.g., co-marketing, case studies, presence at events/conferences, etc. - Become one of the most knowledgeable people in the world on the GPU and AI-compute market: pricing, supply, contract structures, who is building what and at what cost. Through research, and through showing up in person. - Source, structure and negotiate compute and infrastructure agreements — capacity commitments, long-term supply, colocation, energy-linked deals. - Build the cost models that say whether a deal is good, and challenge the ones that say it is. **Build and challenge the financial picture** - Build and stress-test P&L and FP&A models at company level. - Own forecasting for the largest line in our cost base. - Work directly with the CEO and the co-founders on the development strategy and financial planning. **Shape major strategic deals** - Model the economics of large partnerships and identify where the value actually sits. - Translate commercial decisions into a financial story leadership, the board and investors can act on. ## **Requirements** - McKinsey / BCG / Bain-type background, or equivalent depth from corporate finance, investment banking, infrastructure PE, or a strategic-finance role at a fast-scaling company. Consulting alumni at Engagement Manager / Principal level and above. - You can build a three-statement model, an FP&A forecast and a deal case yourself — and find the error in someone else’s. - You understand the economics of large strategic deals: capacity, offtake, TCO, capex versus opex, contract structure. - **At least 3 years working in international markets** — at a global company, or in a role where you owned deals or operations across multiple countries. - Able to become a genuine domain expert fast, from a standing start, on something technical. - Heavy international travel. The GPU market is a relationship market and it does not happen online. - Fluent English and Russian. **Nice to have** - A technical or quantitative undergraduate degree — engineering, physics, applied maths, CS — underneath the commercial track. - Procurement, supply-chain or capacity-planning exposure at real scale. - Time at a cloud, GPU, data centre, semiconductor or energy company, including on the commercial side. - You’ve already made the jump from consulting or banking into an operating role at a startup. ## **What we offer** - Competitive base salary in USD, based on your experience, skills, and the scope of the role. - **Equity participation** through the company’s stock option program, giving you the opportunity to share in Higgsfield’s long-term growth. - Relocation support for candidates moving from another city or country. - A highly collaborative, fast-paced environment where you can work directly with experienced leaders and have a meaningful impact on the product and company. - Opportunities for professional growth, ownership, and career development as the company scales. - Company-provided equipment, meals, transportation, and other office benefits. ***Location:*** **Almaty or San Francisco (onsite)**, with heavy international travel and regular trips to the other hub. Our team works from the office six days per week. We believe in-person collaboration is an important part of how we move quickly, solve complex problems, and build strong teams. ***Also hiring:*** **GM, International Partnerships** — same seniority, focused on enterprise B2B partnerships and commercial execution across verticals.
