- **Work type:** onsite

## Job description

## About Ornn

Ornn is building the financial infrastructure for AI compute. Our price indices are live on Bloomberg Terminal. We structure and trade compute hedging instruments. And we're now building a platform that brings exchange-grade mechanics like order management, matching, scheduling, and settlement to how compute capacity gets reserved and allocated. We're a lean team in New York, backed by leading venture and strategic investors.

## About the Role

You would be an early product hire at Ornn, owning the development lifecycle for our compute reservation and marketplace platform. You will sit between the commercial team and engineering, translating signal from GTM conversations, neocloud partners, and compute buyers into a roadmap the engineering team can execute against. Your job is to make sure the right things get built in the right order with the right stakeholders in mind.

## What You'll Do

- Write detailed specs and acceptance criteria, maintaining a clean and well-organized backlog that engineering can pull from without ambiguity.
- Wireframe and prototype new features and flows before they reach design or engineering, ensuring that early iterations are grounded in real user needs.
- Run discovery calls alongside GTM to understand their compute procurement workflows, pain points, and decision criteria.
- Monitor the evolving GPU compute ecosystem to continuously refine the product roadmap.

## What We're Looking For

## Requirements

- 2+ years of product management experience, with at least one stint as an early product hire at an early-stage company.
- Demonstrated ability to operate with high agency.
- Proficiency with tools like Linear and Figma, etc.
- Strong technical literacy: you can read a pull request, understand an API contract, and have a productive conversation with engineers about system design tradeoffs.
- Excellent oral and written communication skills.

Nice-to-Haves

- Professional experience at a neocloud, cloud/inference provider, hyperscaler, or on a compute procurement team, with firsthand understanding of how organizations buy and manage GPU capacity.
- Background in product roles at companies building marketplace or platform infrastructure.
- Experience at a top-tier PM organization.
- Familiarity with financial products or structured finance concepts, particularly related to commodity markets or asset-backed structures.

## Why This Role Matters

Ornn's success depends on getting the product right for two distinct audiences: neoclouds who need diversified, creditworthy tenants, and compute buyers who need flexible, reliable reservations. This role needs to internalize both of those perspectives simultaneously and align them to create a working product. Near-term product decisions will shape the core platform experience that defines Ornn.

## Compensation and Benefits

Benefits include competitive salary, meaningful equity, health coverage, free meals, and additional benefits. This is a leadership role with significant strategic impact and equity upside.

## Equal Opportunity Statement

Ornn is committed to building a diverse team. We evaluate candidates based on their ability to do the work, not on pedigree or background. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.

## About ornn.com

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Ornn builds the financial layer for AI infrastructure — a regulated platform for pricing, trading, and hedging GPU compute.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage)
- **Headquarters**: New York City, United States
- **Founded**: 2025
- **Founders**: Kush Bavaria (CEO), Wayne Nelms (CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Financial Services / AI Infrastructure
- **Target customers**: Institutional investors, compute buyers and sellers, hyperscalers, AI labs, and capital providers (B2B, Enterprise)
- **Mission or purpose**: Turn AI’s core inputs (compute and data) into markets that can be priced, financed, and hedged. [ornn.com](https://ornn.com/)

## Products & Services
- **Ornn Compute Price Index (OCPI)**: A transaction-based reference price for GPU compute across hardware types (H100, H200, B200, B300) — used for pricing, hedging, and settlement. [ornn.com](https://ornn.com/)
- **Market Intelligence**: Pricing, volatility, supply, and demand data for the compute economy. [ornn.com](https://ornn.com/)
- **Capacity Finance**: Infrastructure that makes GPU capacity easier to underwrite and scale. [ornn.com](https://ornn.com/)
- **Compute Access**: Direct capacity for training, inference, and infrastructure-scale workloads. [ornn.com](https://ornn.com/)
- **Futures & Derivatives** (in partnership with ICE): GPU compute futures contracts based on OCPI, enabling risk management for compute. [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com/company/ornn)

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not publicly available
- **Key Metric**: Total funding – $5.7M (Seed round, 2025-11-28)

## Competitive Advantages
- **Transaction-based, not survey-based**: OCPI is built on real trades, not scraped offers or estimates — giving it market credibility.
- **Regulated and compliant**: Full KYC/AML architecture, SEC-registered entity — unusual for a compute marketplace.
- **First-mover in compute derivatives**: Only platform combining physical compute access, index pricing, and risk-transfer products in one integrated infrastructure. [ornn.com](https://ornn.com/)

## Strategic Focus
- Scale the OCPI as the industry benchmark for compute pricing.
- Expand derivative offerings (futures, options) on regulated exchanges (ICE).
- Grow capacity finance products to unlock institutional capital for AI infrastructure buildout. [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com/company/ornn)

## Why Work Here
- Early-stage fintech tackling a new asset class (compute as a commodity) — high ownership and impact.
