Mirantis, an IREN company, is the Kubernetes-native AI infrastructure company, enabling organizations to build and operate scalable, secure, and sovereign infrastructure for modern AI, machine learning, and data-intensive applications. Backed by Insight and Sapphire.
About the role
This is not a demo-jockey role . You will be an executive technical partner to NeoClouds, AI-native startups, enterprise AI teams, research labs, and sovereign buyers. You will lead high-stakes architecture debates on interconnect topologies, build TCO models that challenge hyperscaler economics, construct reusable pre-sales machinery, and shape our core product roadmap directly from field intelligence.
What they're looking for
- What We’re Looking For
- Enterprise Deal Leadership: Proven track record leading technical sales in complex B2B environments, ideally with multi-year committed-capacity or reserved-capacity deal structures
- Player-Coach Leadership: Track record of hiring, developing, and leading Solutions Architecture or Field Engineering teams—with the technical depth to lead the room on hard deals while scaling others to do the same
- Hands-on AI/ML Infrastructure Experience: You have stood up or operated production ML workloads (distributed training and multi-node inference) and deeply understand performance bottlenecks across interconnect, memory bandwidth, I/O, and cluster scheduling

About the Role & Mission
AI infrastructure is undergoing a generational shift. Disaggregated, raw GPU hardware must be transformed into multi-tenant, production-ready, and sovereign AI clouds - without locking enterprises into a single hyperscaler or hardware vendor. That is where k0rdent AI by Mirantis comes in.
k0rdent AI serves as the declarative "super control plane" that manages complex, heterogeneous GPU infrastructure from Metal-to-Model™. We are hiring a Head of Solutions Architecture to own the technical win, build our pre-sales organization from the ground up, and lead the architecture strategy on high-value, long-cycle compute deals.
