Description
About SCAILIUM
SCAILIUM is the AI Production Layer - the GPU-native software infrastructure that eliminates CPU bottlenecks, removes starvation, and guarantees GPU utilization for enterprise AI workloads. We operate at the intersection of deep systems engineering, power-constrained data centers, and large-scale GPU deployments.
Our Mission is simple and absolute: The GPU never starves.
The Role
We are hiring a foundational Product Manager to work directly with the CTO to define, develop, and externally evangelize SCAILIUM’s physics-aligned product.
This is a hybrid role: deep technical product ownership and outward-facing category evangelism.
You will translate engineering truth into customer value, OEM alignment, GSI blueprints, and market education. You must be as comfortable sitting with GPU-kernel engineers as you are presenting to Dell, NVIDIA, or a Fortune 100 platform architect.
This is not a classic B2B SaaS PM role.
This is deep tech + category creation + high-stakes outbound.
What You Will Own
1. Product Ownership (Internal)
- Work directly with the R&D to shape the GPU-native roadmap for ingestion, vectorization, transformation, curation, and continuous production flow.
- Define precise specifications, APIs, pipeline behavior, and physics-aligned constraints.
- Ensure product features adhere to SCAILIUM’s rigid boundaries:
- No orchestration. No system of record. No serving. No dashboards.
- Enforce documentation rigor. Documentation is code.
2. Technical Outbound Leadership (External)
This is where the role becomes unique and high-impact:
- Serve as a public-facing authority on GPU starvation, impedance incompatibility, and the AI Production Layer.
- Lead technical sessions with Partners, OEMs (Dell, Supermicro, HPE), GSIs (Accenture, Deloitte), and strategic enterprise customers.
- Conduct in-depth customer pipeline analyses to identify physical constraints and translate them into SCAILIUM features or patterns.
- Present SCAILIUM’s architecture in a clear, authoritative, physics-grounded manner.
- Support sales, partnerships, and field engineering by communicating the “why” behind every product decision.
- Build artifacts that shape the category: reference architectures, workload blueprints, TCO models, and silicon saturation narratives.
3. Category Creation & Market Education
- Protect and propagate the language of the category: Silicon Starvation, Impedance Incompatibility, Production Layer, Throughput-per-Watt.
- Help enterprises understand that AI is manufacturing, not software.
- Drive clarity across customers, partners, and internal GTM teams.
- Ensure zero category confusion - every messaging and positioning artifact must reinforce SCAILIUM’s role as the missing layer.
What Success Looks Like
Within 6 months, you will have:
- Delivered crisp, physics-aligned product specs directly with the CTO.
- Launched or refined V1/V2 production flows for OEM and enterprise deployments.
- Led multiple customer-facing deep dives that directly influenced roadmap priorities.
- Established yourself as one of the strongest external voices representing SCAILIUM’s architecture.
- Created reference architectures and technical narratives used by OEMs and GSIs.
- Demonstrated measurable impact on customer outcomes: increased GPU utilization, reduced power waste, faster pipeline throughput.
Why Join SCAILIUM
This is a unique opportunity to:
- Report directly to the CTO and influence the company’s most critical architectural decisions.
- Help define a new infrastructure category for the next decade of AI.
- Collaborate with world-class systems engineers to build technology that aligns with physics, rather than relying on legacy assumptions.
- Lead technical conversations with the world’s largest OEMs, GSIs, and enterprise AI teams.
- Shape the AI factory era - where data moves at silicon speed and power constraints become solvable.
Requirements
What You Bring
Must Have
- 5+ years of experience as a Product Manager or Solutions Architect in infrastructure, HPC, data systems, GPU/AI pipelines, or distributed systems.
- Strong outbound / customer-facing skills: presenting to CTOs, architects, OEM teams, GSIs, and technical buyers.
- Ability to operate at kernel-level conceptual depth and translate physics into product strategy.
- Exceptional communication skills - written and verbal - with the ability to simplify complex GPU and dataflow concepts.
- Demonstrated ability to drive roadmap execution with engineering while also leading external discovery and evangelism.
- Comfort owning both internal product discipline and external technical influence.
Bonus
- Hands-on familiarity with GPU-native ecosystems (CUDA, Triton, cuDF, GPUDirect Storage).
- Experience with enterprise pipeline technologies (Spark, Databricks, Kafka, warehouses/lakehouses).
- Prior work with OEMs, GSIs, or large-scale on-prem / cloud AI deployments.
- Experience defining a new category or launching V1 products.
Who You Are
- Technically credible at a level where engineers and CTOs trust your reasoning.
- A natural evangelist who can explain complex systems simply and convincingly.
- Obsessed with clarity - you never hide behind jargon or ambiguity.
- Physics-driven - you operate from first principles, not trends.
- Production-minded - you think in pipelines, reliability, and throughput.
- Comfortable in high-ambiguity environments and capable of turning uncertainty into structure.
You thrive in deep-tech environments where velocity and rigor must coexist.
