Technical Product Manager, AI Cloud Networking
About The Position
Mirantis is looking for a Technical Product Manager to own networking for k0rdent AI, our control plane for GPU infrastructure and distributed AI workloads. In this role, you will define the networking strategy, roadmap, and feature priorities that determine how operators deploy, segment, and scale tenant networks across GPU clusters running large-scale training and inference. GPU cloud networking sits at the intersection of high-performance computing and multi-tenant cloud, and the product must hold both worlds together. You will shape how k0rdent AI reasons about collective communication libraries (NCCL, RCCL, NVSHMEM), lossless east-west fabrics over InfiniBand and RoCEv2, and the north-south path through BGP-driven underlays, multi-tenant overlays, and programmable dataplanes accelerated by DPUs and SmartNICs from NVIDIA, AMD Pensando, and the broader ecosystem. These layers are typically operated as disconnected silos. Your job is to make them a coherent, declarative product. The ideal candidate brings strong technical fluency in classical networking and the AI stack. You will work directly with engineering to shape requirements, with marketing to sharpen positioning, and with field teams to convert technical depth into wins in competitive GPU cloud and NeoCloud deals.
