Gimlet Labs is an applied research lab focused on building high performance AI systems. Backed by Menlo and Sapphire.
About the role
As the Product Lifecycle & BOM Operations Program Manager at Gimlet, you will own the lifecycle of the hardware we procure and deploy across our data centers, from new part introduction to end of life. You will create and control internal part numbers, structure top-level assembly BOMs, keep part and BOM data accurate, and translate deployment plans into material requirements. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of experience in product lifecycle management, BOM management, materials planning, or hardware operations
- Hands-on experience creating internal part numbers and structuring multi-level BOMs, from top-level assemblies down to components
- A strong understanding of revision control, engineering change processes (ECR/ECO), and AML/AVL management
- The ability to read and interpret datasheets and spec sheets for hardware such as servers, networking gear, power, cabling, and optics
- Experience managing EOL notices, PCNs, last-time buys, and excess and obsolete inventory
- Experience translating changing deployment schedules into material plans, and managing long-lead components and shortages
More about this role
Gimlet is building the first multi-silicon neocloud designed for fast, efficient AI inference.
We combine large-scale compute infrastructure with an execution platform that partitions AI workloads and maps each stage to the hardware best suited to run it.
We work with foundation labs, hyperscalers, and AI-native companies, giving our team access to technical problems spanning frontier models, production infrastructure, and emerging hardware.
