Vice President, Communications – US

Nebius • San Francisco, CA

7d • Remote

About The Position

Nebius is leading a new era in cloud computing to serve the global AI economy. We create the tools and resources our customers need to solve real-world challenges and transform industries, without massive infrastructure costs or the need to build large in-house AI/ML teams. Our employees work at the cutting edge of AI cloud infrastructure alongside some of the most experienced and innovative leaders and engineers in the field.
Headquartered in Amsterdam and listed on Nasdaq, Nebius has a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, North America, and Israel. The team of over 800 employees includes more than 400 highly skilled engineers with deep expertise across hardware and software engineering, as well as an in-house AI R&D team.
This is a role for an ambitious communications leader ready to scale the US communications function at an AI cloud company in hypergrowth. You'll own day-to-day US communications, with real autonomy and the opportunity to build something meaningful inside a multibillion-dollar business. Building on strong foundations including two media-focused US PR Directors, you’ll lead a high-impact communications function to support Nebius’s rapidly growing reputation. Reporting to the Head of Communications and working within a global framework, you'll have decision-making authority, close partnership with C-suite leaders and teams across the business, and a mandate to shape our communications in our largest market.
You’ll build our enterprise PR capabilities from the ground up, deepen relationships with partners including NVIDIA’s comms leadership, and lead on crisis communications during US hours. Offering unusual scope for a regional VP, this role is ideal for a Senior Director at a high-growth cloud, AI, or enterprise tech company ready to step up to a first VP role, or a VP at a smaller organization looking for a larger platform. We’re not looking for a “big beast” with all the answers — we want an ambitious operator who listens, adapts, and builds durable systems. This role is remote within the United States, with a preference for major tech hubs.
