영업팀과 협력하여 고객의 기술적 요구사항을 파악하고 기술적 발견, 데모, 솔루션 설계를 수행해요. 벤치마킹과 개념 증명(POC) 프로젝트를 주도하며, 필요시 엔지니어링 팀과 협업하여 배포를 관리해요. AI/ML 배경지식과 기술적 의사소통 능력이 필수이며, 프로덕션 코드를 직접 작성할 필요는 없지만 스크립팅 및 프로토타이핑 역량이 필요해요. 복잡한 기술적 작업이 필요할 때는 Forward Deployed Engineering(FDE) 팀의 지원을 받아 프로젝트를 이끌어요.
Baseten powers mission-critical inference for the world's most dynamic AI companies, like Cursor, Notion, OpenEvidence, Abridge, Clay, Gamma and Writer. By uniting applied AI research, flexible infrastructure, and seamless developer tooling, we enable companies operating at the frontier of AI to bring cutting-edge models into production. We're growing quickly and recently raised our $1.5B Series F, led by Altimeter Capital, Conviction Partners, and Spark Capital. Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to to ship AI products.
As a Solution Architect at Baseten you will partner closely with Sales and customers to translate business needs into technical solutions, run technical discovery, and guide repeatable deployments and proofs of value for customers. This role is a great fit for entrepreneurial, customer-facing technical professionals who want a front-row view into how modern companies adopt AI at scale, and who enjoy working across technical discovery, solution design, demos, deployment scoping, and hands-on customer implementations, in close partnership with Sales and Engineering.
Partner with Sales on customer discovery calls (most often second calls, occasionally first calls for large accounts).
Lead demos and technical scoping to align on success criteria, architecture, and deployment approach.
Own benchmarking and repeatable deployments, including:
Handling standard deployment patterns and configurations across many modalities – LLMs, embeddings, image and video generation, VoiceAI, etc.
Advising on tradeoffs like H100s vs B200s and latency-optimized vs throughput-optimized setups.
Driving consistent “playbook” style deployments for common models and use cases.
Become a power user of different runtimes such as vllm, sglang, and TRT-LMM and all the common configurations and tradeoffs between them
Drive POC and project execution, including:
Scoping POCs and keeping stakeholders aligned on timeline, deliverables, and next steps.
Acting as the “ringleader” or project manager for POCs.
Pulling in Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) support when deeper or more complex technical work is needed.
AI/ML background and the ability to credibly discuss AI/ML topics with technical stakeholders.
Strong customer-facing communication skills, including the ability to run structured discovery and clarify ambiguous requirements.
Technical depth to scope solutions, without needing to write production code.
Ability to script and prototype as needed, including comfort “vibe coding” to move quickly in technical workflows.
Experience running or supporting benchmarks for ML inference deployments.
Familiarity with infrastructure tradeoffs relevant to inference performance and cost (for example GPU selection and latency versus throughput tuning).
Experience serving as a cross-functional technical lead for customer POCs, including coordination across Sales and Engineering.
Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity.
100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents
Flexible PTO policy including company wide Winter Break (our offices are closed from Christmas Eve to New Year's Day!)
Paid parental leave
Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot
Company-facilitated 401(k)
Exposure to a variety of ML startups, offering unparalleled learning and networking opportunities.
