About the job

Requirements
  • Early-career experience in product, business operations, analytics, or technical program management.
  • Comfort working directly with data, spreadsheets, and lightweight tooling such as SQL, no-code platforms, and AI coding assistants.
  • Some exposure to designing a workflow or tool from the end user's point of view, not just the data behind it.
  • A track record of shipping a tool, process fix, or internal script rather than only recommending one.
  • Ability to judge whether a dashboard or tool will be usable by end users.
  • Ability to prioritize a noisy backlog by weighing impact against effort.
  • Comfort using AI-assisted coding tools to ship small things directly.
  • Ability to build cross-functional relationships.
  • Clear written communication for specifications, roadmaps, and requirements.
Responsibilities
  • Partner with business stakeholders to define key metrics and support agreement on a single trusted source for each metric.
  • Contribute requirements for converting manually built, inconsistent reporting into live, self-serve dashboards suitable for executives, including how users can drill from summary numbers into underlying detail.
  • Help prioritize reports or metrics for automation based on how manual, stale, or error-prone they are.
  • Identify manual, spreadsheet-driven work worth automating and help deliver fixes end to end.
  • Scope fixes and help decide what to build directly using lightweight scripting, no-code tools, or AI-assisted coding versus what requires a full engineering build.
  • Write clear, engineering-ready specifications for work handed off to a technical partner.
  • Identify and document opportunities for AI agents or automation to replace manual coordination, contributing to the broader automation roadmap.
  • Support the tool-request pipeline by collecting requests, triaging them, and prioritizing them based on impact versus effort.
  • Help maintain a visible roadmap so stakeholders understand what is coming next and why.
  • Build relationships with supported teams to keep priorities grounded in their needs.

About the company

Lambda Labs provides cloud-based GPU services for AI training and inference. Its AI Developer Cloud runs on NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper hardware to train large language models and generative AI, offering on-demand and reserved GPUs billed by the hour (for example, $1.99/hour for H100). It differentiates itself through competitive pricing, high availability, and an integrated ML stack with Lambda Stack for easy installation of PyTorch, TensorFlow, CUDA, cuDNN, and NVIDIA drivers, plus Lambda Echelon for owning infrastructure with hosting and support. Its goal is to make scalable AI development and deployment affordable by providing flexible GPU access, reliable hosting, and streamlined software deployment for teams working with large models.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • October 1, 2026, Lambda closed $1 billion fixed-rate debt for contracted deployments.
  • August 31, 2026 Reuters reported Anthropic's $35 billion Lambda deal for Texas capacity.
  • May 2026 leadership changes installed Michel Combes and John Donovan for scale execution.

What critics are saying

  • Lambda's growth now depends on Nvidia chip allocation and pricing, tightening margins immediately.
  • October 1 financing secures three deployments; one canceled off-take strains highly levered infrastructure economics.
  • A failed hyperscale customer ramp, especially Anthropic, threatens refinancing and a pre-IPO exit.

What makes Lambda unique

  • Lambda pairs bare-metal GPU clouds with on-prem hardware and software, simplifying full-stack AI deployment.
  • At GTC 2026, Lambda announced early Vera Rubin NVL72 bare-metal instances for H2 2026.
  • Lambda runs production-scale infrastructure, including Quantum-X InfiniBand Photonics on 10,000-GPU GB300 clusters.

Anthropic signs $35B cloud deal with Nvidia-backed Lambda for Texas data centre

Anthropic has signed a $35 billion cloud-computing agreement with Nvidia-backed Lambda, the Wall Street Journal reported. The deal gives Anthropic access to computing capacity from a Texas data centre being developed by Hut 8, a Bitcoin miner turned data centre operator. Nvidia secured capacity at the facility, whilst Lambda will deploy Nvidia chips and provide computing resources to Anthropic. The arrangement's financial terms remain unclear. Anthropic's annualised revenue run rate reportedly reached $65 billion by end-July. The structure highlights Nvidia's expanding role beyond selling AI chips. Anthropic previously agreed to spend $45 billion over six years with another Nvidia-backed provider, Nscale. In April, Amazon announced Anthropic plans to spend over $100 billion on AWS technology over the next decade.

Lambda closes $926M term loan B to fund GPU infrastructure for investment-grade customer

Lambda has closed a $926 million senior secured term loan B facility to fund GPU infrastructure for an investment-grade customer. The facility, priced at SOFR + 3.00% and issued at 99.5% of principal, received a Baa2 rating from Moody's. This marks Lambda's first large-scale private cloud GPU asset-backed financing and the first broadly syndicated, investment-grade-rated term loan B by a private neocloud. The facility matures on 31 December 2030 and is secured by the GPU servers and related infrastructure it funds. The closing follows Lambda's $1 billion senior secured credit facility announced in May 2026. Morgan Stanley acted as lead left arranger, bookrunner, and administrative agent, with MUFG serving as joint bookrunner.

Nvidia arranges $500B AI infrastructure credit, raising Ouroboros risk concerns over chipmaker-lender overlap

Nvidia is arranging over $500 billion in AI infrastructure credit alongside Apollo Global Management, Blackstone, BlackRock, Brookfield Asset Management, Goldman Sachs and KKR, raising concerns about circular financing. The chipmaker may secure up to $125 billion of the total itself. A recent $917 million credit facility with Lambda demonstrates how the system works: customers lacking liquidity can access capital arranged through the consortium to purchase Nvidia hardware. CEO Jensen Huang aims to transform the company's graphics chips into an "investable asset class". Critics warn of an "Ouroboros dilemma" — when manufacturers arrange loans for customers to buy their own products, creating a closed loop vulnerable to collapse if actual AI service demand lags infrastructure buildout. Nvidia shares closed at €188.50 on Monday, down 2.67%. The company reports second-quarter fiscal 2027 earnings on 26 August.
