About Us At Fireworks, we’re building the future of generative AI infrastructure. Our platform delivers the highest-quality models with the fastest and most scalable inference in the industry. We’ve been independently benchmarked as the leader in LLM inference speed and are driving cutting-edge innovation through projects like our own function calling and multimodal models. Fireworks is a Series C company valued at $4 billion and backed by top investors including Benchmark, Sequoia, Lightspeed, Index, and Evantic. We’re an ambitious, collaborative team of builders, founded by veterans of Meta PyTorch and Google Vertex AI.
About The Role We are seeking a strategic and execution-focused Microsoft Alliance Director to lead and expand our first-party partnership with Microsoft, with a specific focus on Azure AI Foundry and the broader Azure ecosystem. This is a highly visible role responsible for defining and driving joint go-to-market strategy, building deep relationships across Microsoft field and product teams, and accelerating revenue through co-sell and marketplace motions.
The ideal candidate brings a strong track record of building and scaling hyperscaler partnerships (particularly Microsoft), deep familiarity with Azure AI / data platforms, and experience driving measurable pipeline and revenue through alliances. This role requires both strategic thinking and hands-on execution in a fast-paced startup environment.
