Our provider ecosystem is the foundation of that marketplace. As the number of model labs and inference providers we work with grows, the relationships behind them have to scale like a product — with consistent tiers, lifecycles, and standards — not as a set of one-off deals.
Responsibilities
- Own the provider lifecycle. Define and operate the standard path from sourcing → onboarding → activation → QBR → renewal, with clear stage gates, owners, and SLAs.
- Design provider tiering.
- Build and maintain the tiering framework (the “buckets”) that determines how providers are classified, what they get, and what’s expected of them.
- Build programmatic structure that scales. Turn one-off relationships into repeatable systems — templates, playbooks, self-serve onboarding, and automated provider comms — so the program grows without linear headcount.
- Run cross-program operations. Execute program-wide changes (re-paper all providers, launch a new tier, roll out a new compliance attestation) as a single coordinated motion.
- Run the flagship programs. Operate MPEAP and the verified/certified provider tracks, from intake criteria to ongoing management.
- Own the compliance cadence. Keep SLAs, attestations, and provider obligations on schedule and auditable.
- Set the operating cadence. Run the rhythm of the team — reviews, reporting, and the operating cadence that keeps everyone aligned.
- Partner cross-functionally. Work across Product, Engineering, Legal, Finance, and Security to unblock providers and ship program improvements.
