From the PyTorch Lightning creators. Own your AI, don. Backed by Index.
About the role
We are seeking an experienced Senior Technical Program Manager to lead complex, cross-functional programs that span compute, network, storage, observability, and datacenter operations. You will drive delivery of high impact initiatives, define clear milestones and dependencies, and partner closely with engineering, operations, and leadership to ensure predictable execution in a fast moving technical environment.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years of experience as a Technical Program Manager in infrastructure, cloud, or distributed systems environments
- Strong experience driving execution across multiple technical workstreams (network, compute, storage, datacenter infrastructure)
- Proven ability to coordinate complex, cross-functional programs without needing to be the deepest domain expert in every area
- Experience operating across multiple infrastructure domains rather than a single area of specialization
- Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments with evolving priorities and limited process
- Strong communicator who can align engineering, operations, and leadership stakeholders
More about this role
Lightning AI is the company behind PyTorch Lightning. Founded in 2019, we build an end-to-end platform for developing, training, and deploying AI systems—designed to take ideas from research to production with less friction.
Through our merger with Voltage Park, a neocloud and AI Factory, Lightning AI combines developer-first software with cost-efficient, large-scale compute. Teams get the tools they need for experimentation, training, and production inference, with security, observability, and control built in.
We serve solo researchers, startups, and large enterprises. Lightning AI operates globally with offices in New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, and London, and is backed by Coatue, Index Ventures, Bain Capital Ventures, and Firstminute.
The people who thrive here are builders who move fast, communicate openly, take ownership, and continuously improve themselves, their teams, and our company. Here's what that looks like in practice:
- Move with Urgency: We move quickly, make thoughtful decisions, and keep momentum. We value action over perfection and learn by shipping.
- Take Ownership: We own outcomes, not just our individual work. We make decisions that move the company...
