Senior Developer Advocate

About Nebius: Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure. Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI. Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, or willing to relocate. The role We're looking for a scrappy, resourceful Developer Advocate who understands inference to help developers run open models in production on Token Factory, Nebius' high-performance inference platform. Every agent, copilot and AI product runs on an inference layer, and the developers choosing that layer have hard questions: Which open model should I run for this step? What does this cost per million tokens at my traffic? Why is my p99 latency spiking? Why does my multi-turn agent get slower and more expensive as the context grows? When do I move from a serverless endpoint to a dedicated one, and when does fine-tuning beat a longer prompt? Your job is to have credible, hands-on answers to those questions, and to show the work in public. You'll be embedded with the Token Factory product and engineering team in San Francisco.

You'll be in their standups and bug bashes, you'll carry customer stories back to them, and you'll fix the docs gap yourself when you find one. You'll be equally at home in the Bay Area's AI-native community: the meetups our customers and partners host, and the open-source inference projects developers actually use. This is a hands-on, builder-first role. The content that matters here is less "how to call the API" and more "here's how a production inference stack is put together, and here are the tradeoffs. " If you have strong opinions about serving open models and want a platform to prove them on, this role is for you. This role is based in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Token Factory team's center of gravity is in San Francisco and we expect this person to be part of the local community in person. Your responsibilities will include: - Help developers and teams discover, evaluate and adopt Token Factory for production inference workloads, from a first API call on a serverless endpoint to dedicated endpoints and fine-tuned models. - Build demos, benchmarks and reference architectures that make real tradeoffs concrete: which open model to use for which step, latency against cost per token, how context growth affects multi-turn agents, reliability of tool calling and structured outputs, and when fine-tuning or a custom speculator pays off versus a bigger model or a longer prompt. - Show how Token Factory fits into the stack developers already use: OpenAI-compatible SDKs, agent frameworks, MCP and tool use, evals, embeddings and retrieval, and post-training. - Be embedded with Token Factory product and engineering: join standups and bug bashes, test new models and features before launch, and make sure the right samples and docs exist on day zero of every release. - Own the developer feedback loop. Gather what's breaking for builders, bring it back as concrete product input, and follow through until it ships or is explicitly declined. - Represent Nebius in the Bay Area inference and open-model community: meetups, partner and customer events, open-source communities such as vLLM, SGLang and Ray, and developer conferences.
