## Description

**Why work at Higgsfield AI?**

We're the fastest-scaling generative AI company in history, hitting $1B in annual revenue run rate, 30M+ users worldwide, and powering 390 of Fortune 500 brands. We’re building at the absolute frontier of AI-powered video creation and next-generation creative tools. Joining Higgsfield means becoming part of a high-impact team shaping the future of AI-native experiences, at a company that isn’t just moving fast, but rewriting what fast looks like.
 

### Why this role exists

A very large share of Higgsfield’s capital goes into compute. GPU procurement, deal economics, the financial planning around it — today that entire function effectively sits on one person’s desk.

We’re not hiring someone to explain the business to the board. We’re hiring someone to drive $100M+ strategic deals end to end: find them, model them, negotiate them, close them, and own what happens after. The financial work matters because it’s how you win a deal and how you know it was worth winning — not because someone needs a deck.

This is the largest line in our cost base and the surface area is enormous, so you’re in company-level decisions from week one. What the role demands is energy and complete ownership. Nobody hands you a process, a pipeline or a mandate here. You take them.

###
**What you’ll doOwn GPU and compute economics**

- Engage and maintain relationships post-deal close, leading delivery of strategic, co-owned initiatives (e.g., co-marketing, case studies, presence at events/conferences, etc.

- Become one of the most knowledgeable people in the world on the GPU and AI-compute market: pricing, supply, contract structures, who is building what and at what cost. Through research, and through showing up in person.

- Source, structure and negotiate compute and infrastructure agreements — capacity commitments, long-term supply, colocation, energy-linked deals.

- Build the cost models that say whether a deal is good, and challenge the ones that say it is.

**Build and challenge the financial picture**

- Build and stress-test P&L and FP&A models at company level.

- Own forecasting for the largest line in our cost base.

- Work directly with the CEO and the co-founders on the development strategy and financial planning.

**Shape major strategic deals**

- Model the economics of large partnerships and identify where the value actually sits.

- Translate commercial decisions into a financial story leadership, the board and investors can act on.

### **Requirements**

- McKinsey / BCG / Bain-type background, or equivalent depth from corporate finance, investment banking, infrastructure PE, or a strategic-finance role at a fast-scaling company. Consulting alumni at Engagement Manager / Principal level and above.

- You can build a three-statement model, an FP&A forecast and a deal case yourself — and find the error in someone else’s.

- You understand the economics of large strategic deals: capacity, offtake, TCO, capex versus opex, contract structure.

- **At least 3 years working in international markets** — at a global company, or in a role where you owned deals or operations across multiple countries.

- Able to become a genuine domain expert fast, from a standing start, on something technical.

- Heavy international travel. The GPU market is a relationship market and it does not happen online.

**Nice to have**

- A technical or quantitative undergraduate degree — engineering, physics, applied maths, CS — underneath the commercial track.

- Procurement, supply-chain or capacity-planning exposure at real scale.

- Time at a cloud, GPU, data centre, semiconductor or energy company, including on the commercial side.

- You’ve already made the jump from consulting or banking into an operating role at a startup.

### Coming from the compute side instead?

If you’ve bought or sold GPU capacity at a cloud, neocloud, data centre or hardware company and you can hold your own on the numbers, this is your role too. We care that you know the market and can move a deal, not which chair you sat in while you learned it.
 

### **What we offer**

- Competitive base salary in USD, based on your experience, skills, and the scope of the role.

- **Equity participation** through the company’s stock option program, giving you the opportunity to share in Higgsfield’s long-term growth.

- Relocation support for candidates moving from another city or country.

- A highly collaborative, fast-paced environment where you can work directly with experienced leaders and have a meaningful impact on the product and company.

- Opportunities for professional growth, ownership, and career development as the company scales.

- Company-provided equipment, meals, transportation, and other office benefits.

***Location:*Almaty or San Francisco (onsite)**, with heavy international travel and regular trips to the other hub. Our team works from the office six days per week. We believe in-person collaboration is an important part of how we move quickly, solve complex problems, and build strong teams.

***Also hiring:* GM, International Partnerships** — same seniority, focused on enterprise B2B partnerships and commercial execution across verticals. If your background is commercial rather than analytical, apply there instead.
