Gradient is building the world’s first fully decentralized AI runtime—a sovereign, peer-powered infrastructure where intelligence is hosted, served, and owned by the people. The age of Centralized Intelligence is ending. What comes next is open, agentic, and alive at the edge.
We’ve recently completed our $10M seed funding round, led by Pantera Capital and Multicoin Capital, with participation from HSG (formerly Sequoia Capital China) and other distinguished partners. This milestone is further supported by leading angel investors and advisors from spaces across AI, crypto, and beyond.
About the Role
We are looking for a driven, dynamic, and proactive Growth & BD to support our mission of building the world’s first fully decentralized AI runtime. This role is designed for someone eager to engage with cutting-edge AI infrastructure, facilitate meaningful partnerships, and drive the widespread adoption of decentralized intelligence technologies.
Responsibilities
Identify, research, and engage potential strategic partners, including research institutions, infrastructure platforms, developers, and tech communities.
Support senior BD team members in structuring and managing strategic partnerships and collaborations.
Contribute to creating scalable processes and resources (e.g., decks, proposals, and documentation) to enhance partner outreach effectiveness.
Help organize and participate in events, webinars, and community activities to boost Gradient Network's presence and awareness.
Work closely with Product and Marketing teams to align partnership initiatives with strategic business objectives.
Requirements
1–3 years of experience in Business Development, Partnerships, Growth, or related roles.
Exceptional communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills.
Proactive mindset, eager to learn and able to quickly grasp complex technical concepts related to AI and decentralized technologies.
Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple tasks efficiently.
Bonus: Previous experience or demonstrated interest in decentralized networks, AI infrastructure, blockchain, or similar tech ecosystems.
If you’re ready to challenge the status quo and be part of a transformative journey, we invite you to apply. Together, let’s build a brighter, more inclusive future powered by intelligence.
We’re excited about the path we’re forging — and the talented minds who will help shape it. If you’re passionate about building a decentralized, community-driven future for AI and eager to make a lasting impact, we’d love to hear from you.
