Runpod, Inc. is hiring a remote Senior Procurement Officer (Supply, Cloud Infrastructure) to lead strategic sourcing and high-stakes negotiations for one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure platforms in the United States. If you thrive on structuring complex, multi-million-dollar vendor deals, this remote role puts you at the center of how AI gets built and scaled. About the Role This is a remote, full-time position focused exclusively on procuring cloud infrastructure for Runpod — not SaaS or routine IT spend. You will own commercial strategy for agreements ranging from tens to hundreds of millions of dollars, demanding sharp legal judgment and financial discipline.

Forecast spend, reduce supply chain risk, and pursue ongoing cost efficiency without slowing delivery (requires working-level FP&A skills).
