What We Do

The market for cutting-edge ML compute is broken. Startups, researchers and even big AI labs are scrambling to buy or rent access to the latest chips for ML training.

To solve this challenge, we've launched Voltage Park, and we’re on a mission to make machine learning infrastructure accessible to all, from large enterprises and research universities, to seed-stage startups and nonprofits.

With around 24,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs, the Voltage Park cloud is one of the most powerful collections of cutting-edge ML compute in the world. Our clusters consist of 80GB H100 SXM5 GPUs fully interconnected with 3.2T InfiniBand.

Why Work With Us

You’ll play a pivotal role as a member of the founding team that will change the face of machine learning infrastructure. As an early hire, you’ll have outsize influence in defining the company’s culture and ensuring mission success.
