About AndromedaAndromeda Cluster was founded by Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross to give early-stage startups access to the kind of scaled AI infrastructure once reserved only for hyperscalers.We began with a single managed cluster — but it filled almost instantly. Since then, we’ve been quietly building the systems, network, and orchestration layer that makes the world’s AI infrastructure more accessible.Today, Andromeda works with leading AI labs, data centers, and cloud providers to deliver compute when and where it’s needed most. Our platform routes training and inference jobs across global supply, unlocking flexibility and efficiency in one of the fastest-growing markets on earth.Our long-term vision is to build the liquidity layer for global AI compute. We are expanding to new frontiers to find the brightest that work in AI infrastructure, research and engineering.The OpportunityWe’re hiring a Strategic Compute Finance Lead to own the financial strategy, modeling, and deal execution behind Andromeda’s global compute portfolio.This role sits at the intersection of infrastructure finance and commercial execution. We’re building the financial architecture that supports how Andromeda acquires, finances, and deploys GPU compute at scale — from capex planning and scenario modeling to deal structuring and lender relationships. This is a financial modeling and deal execution role, not a trading or capital markets function.We’ve established the foundational layer of our compute portfolio and are now focused on expanding capital capacity, deepening lender relationships, and building the financial infrastructure to support our next phase of growth.
