Full description
WEKA is architecting a new approach to the enterprise data stack built for the age of reasoning. NeuralMesh by WEKA sets the standard for agentic AI data infrastructure with a cloud- and AI-native software solution that can be deployed anywhere. It transforms legacy data silos into data pipelines that dramatically increase GPU utilization and make AI model training and inference, machine learning, and other compute-intensive workloads run faster, work more efficiently, and consume less energy.
WEKA is a pre-IPO, growth-stage company on a hyper-growth trajectory. We’ve raised $375M in capital with dozens of world-class venture capital and strategic investors. We help the world’s largest and most innovative enterprises and research organizations, including 12 of the Fortune 50, achieve discoveries, insights, and business outcomes faster and more sustainably. We’re passionate about solving our customers’ most complex data challenges to accelerate intelligent innovation and business value. If you share our passion, we invite you to join us on this exciting journey.
About the role
WEKA is looking for a Product Manager to own the roadmap and go-to-market for Augmented Memory Grid (AMG), part of the NeuralMesh platform. This is a deeply technical PM role sitting at the intersection of AI inference infrastructure, high-performance networking, and enterprise storage. You will work directly with engineering, GPU/inference partners (NVIDIA, hyperscalers, GPU clouds), and enterprise customers running large-scale LLM inference to define what AMG needs to do next.
Bring Your Expertise – and Your Passion
- Leadership Skills: Strong leadership skills with a history of successfully leading cross-functional teams. Product Managers are expected to inspire and motivate team members to achieve ambitious goals while maintaining a collaborative and positive working environment. You understand how to influence without authority, and your recall of meaningful details supports verbal and written agility.
- Strategic Vision: You are a strategic thinker who can develop and execute product strategies that align with market trends and customer needs, as well as think critically about existing strategies. You have a proven ability to translate strategic goals into actionable plans and deliver results.
- Communication Skills: You have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You are comfortable presenting product strategies and roadmaps to internal teams and external customers.
What you’ll do
- Own the AMG product roadmap: KV-cache/prefix-cache offload, memory tiering, and integration with inference engines and orchestration layers (vLLM, NVIDIA Triton/TensorRT-LLM/NIM, Kubernetes-based serving).
- Partner with engineering to define architecture trade-offs across GPU memory, networking (RDMA, GPUDirect, NVMe-oF), and distributed storage — translating inference performance bottlenecks (time-to-first-token, throughput, context length) into product requirements.
- Work directly with enterprise customers and GPU cloud partners: Nebius, CoreWeave, TogetherAI, etc., running production inference workloads to gather requirements, validate benchmarks, and prioritize features that reduce cost-per-token and improve SLAs at scale.
- Partner with NVIDIA and other silicon/inference-stack partners on joint roadmap and certification work.
- Define and track benchmarks (TTFT, throughput, cache hit rate) that demonstrate AMG's value versus standard GPU-memory-only inference.
- Support sales and field teams with technical positioning, competitive differentiation, and enterprise deal support.
Must-have qualifications
- Inference ecosystem depth: hands-on product or engineering experience with LLM inference serving — vLLM, NVIDIA Triton/TensorRT-LLM/NIM, Ray Serve, or comparable — and fluency in concepts like KV-cache, prefix/context caching, quantization, and batching strategies.
- Model & systems familiarity: working knowledge of how modern LLMs are served in production (context windows, multi-tenant serving, GPU scheduling) well enough to translate model-level constraints into infrastructure requirements.
- Networking/infrastructure fluency: comfort with the fundamentals of high-performance networking and distributed systems — RDMA, GPUDirect Storage, NVMe-oF, or equivalent — and how they affect inference performance.
- Enterprise customer experience: track record working directly with large enterprise accounts — requirements gathering, production deployments, SLAs — not solely self-serve/PLG products.
- 10+ years of product management experience, ideally with some portion in infrastructure, ML platforms, or developer-facing technical products.
Nice-to-have
- Prior experience at a GPU cloud, inference platform, or AI infrastructure startup.
- Familiarity with storage systems (parallel/distributed file systems, object storage) in AI/ML pipelines.
- Experience partnering directly with NVIDIA or other accelerator/silicon vendors.
The WEKA Way:
- We are Accountable: We take full ownership, always–even when things don’t go as planned. We lead with integrity, show up with responsibility & ownership, and hold ourselves and each other to the highest standards.
- We are Brave: We question the status quo, push boundaries, and take smart risks when needed. We welcome challenges and embrace debates as opportunities for growth, turning courage into fuel for innovation.
- We are Collaborative: True collaboration isn’t only about working together. It’s about lifting one another up to succeed collectively. We are team-oriented and communicate with empathy and respect. We challenge each other and conduct positive conflict resolution. We are being transparent about our goals and results. And together, we’re unstoppable.
- We are Customer Centric: Our customers are at the heart of everything we do. We actively listen and prioritize the success of our customers, and every decision we make is driven by how we can better serve, support, and empower them to succeed. When our customers win, we win.
