About SkyPilot
SkyPilot accelerates the world's most ambitious AI teams. SkyPilot turns fragmented AI compute across clusters into one optimized, highly available and easy-to-use pool: a single AI supercomputer.
SkyPilot (10k+ GitHub stars, 18M+ downloads) manages the GPU fleets of 100s of companies, from Fortune 500s to top AI-natives like Abridge, Applied Compute, Mistral, Unconventional AI, H Company, and Nubank, with usage growing exponentially. Born in the UC Berkeley lab behind Spark and Databricks, our growing team includes top-tier talent from Databricks, Google, Berkeley, MIT, CMU, and Cornell. To date, SkyPilot has raised over $20M in seed funding from top investors (incl. Lux, Coatue, Amplify) and operators (incl. Ali Ghodsi, Jeff Dean, Guillermo Rauch, Amjad Masad, Clem Delangue, Aaron Levie).
The role
SkyPilot has enormous open-source pull — millions of downloads and hundreds of companies already running it. We're looking for our early growth hire to turn that pull into a repeatable pipeline. You'll build the outbound and growth engine from scratch: the sequences, the sourcing, the tooling, and the experiments that get SkyPilot in front of the right teams at the right time. You'll be standing this machine up from the very beginning. You're the person who turns adoption and interest into a steady flow of the right conversations for the team to close.
What you'll do
- Build the outbound engine: design and run prospecting sequences, sourcing, and enrichment, and stand up the growth and GTM tooling stack (CommonRoom, Clay, and the like) from the ground up.
- Turn our ICP into pipeline: take the ideal-customer definition and operationalize it into target-account lists, plays, and campaigns that reach frontier AI teams and platform engineers where they already are.
- Run growth experiments: test channels, messaging angles, and offers; instrument the funnel so you know what's working; double down on what wins and drop what doesn't.
- Open early partnerships: find and grow the cloud, community, and ecosystem relationships that put SkyPilot in front of new users.
- Feed the closers: work alongside the Founding Account Executive and Product Marketing Manager — you build the machine and generate qualified pipeline, the AE closes it, and product marketing supplies the message.
What we're looking for
- You've built a GTM or growth motion from close to zero and owned it end to end.
- Fluent with the modern growth and GTM stack (CRM, sequencing, enrichment, data tooling like CommonRoom or Clay) and comfortable wiring tools together yourself.
- Analytical: you instrument funnels, read the numbers, and run disciplined experiments rather than one-off campaigns.
- Able to sell a deeply technical product to a technical audience — you can hold a credible conversation with ML and infrastructure engineers.
- Strong bias to action and ownership.
What we offer
- Competitive equity, compensation, and health benefits.
- The chance to work with some of the best minds in cloud, distributed, and AI systems — with significant autonomy and ownership.
- A front-row seat at the latest open-source infra startup from Berkeley.
Location: San Mateo, CA. Remote will be considered for exceptional candidates.
