This is an end-to-end execution role. You will own event strategy, venues, sponsorships, budgets, speakers, registration, CRM capture, vendors, onsite operations, and post-event follow-up. You will also build the repeatable playbooks and ecosystem partnerships that let Inferact scale events across the US, Europe, and APAC.

  • Design a repeatable ecosystem events program for partners such as Google, AMD, and NVIDIA to participate in vLLM events.
  • Work with external event support to attract sponsors and participants around vLLM Conference launches, while developing clear positioning and marketing guidelines for Inferact vs. vLLM across conferences and events.
