Serverless infrastructure for open-source AI inference
Featherless.ai is building the world’s most reliable open-model inference platform — a serverless foundation for deploying and scaling AI without infrastructure overhead.
Backed by AMD, Airbus Ventures, 500 Global, Kickstart Ventures, HF0 Residency, Panache Ventures, and Oakseed Ventures, we’re a well-funded team of researchers and engineers on a mission to democratize AI through performance and accessibility.
Our cloud provides instant access to 40,000+ open-source AI models and the research innovations powering next-generation efficiency, reliability, and model optimization.
We’re looking for a founding member of the US/CA GTM team — someone both technical and entrepreneurial that thrives at the intersection of AI, communication, and execution.
This is not a traditional sales role. You’re expected to be fluent in AI and be able to hold your own in conversations with model creators, AI startups, enterprises, and developers exploring open-model deployment.
If you're a charismatic developer looking to expand into sales or a young entrepreneur that's developed technical skills we want to speak to you.
Build & qualify pipeline across enterprises and AI startups
Manage inbound requests through chat and email
Manage outreach sequences and automations (HubSpot, Clay, Reply.io, n8n)
Re-engage existing sign-ups and subscribers; identify high-value users

Work directly with exec on high-impact partnerships and GTM strategy
Build your network across one of the fastest-growing open AI ecosystems
Be part of a small, high-performing team making open weight AI accessible to everyone
Serverless infrastructure for open-source AI inference
Featherless AI builds neutral, serverless infrastructure for open-source AI. Its platform handles inference, model and workflow optimization so teams can run tens of thousands of open models without being tied to hyperscalers. The product works by providing serverless inference and optimized runtimes for open-source models (including RWKV) through its Recursal lineage, aiming for a scalable, vendor-free AI stack. It differentiates itself by offering a neutral, open framework that minimizes lock-in, supports broad hardware (e.g., AMD ROCm), and fosters an open-source agent/runtime ecosystem, rather than relying on proprietary cloud constraints. The company’s goal is to widen access to open-source AI at scale, reduce inference costs, and expand its global footprint and ecosystem through partnerships and continued development of its open-model infrastructure.
