We partner with enterprises tackling the hardest problems across high-stakes industries like finance, manufacturing, defense, healthcare, and the public sector, co-creating customized AI systems that they can run on their terms.\nWe are a dynamic, collaborative team passionate about AI and its potential to transform society. Our diverse workforce thrives in competitive environments and is committed to driving innovation. Our teams are distributed between Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East. We are creative, low-ego and team-spirited.\nThe team\nMistral Cloud builds and operates the infrastructure that powers Mistral's AI. The Data Centers team signs long-term leases for data center capacity developed by third-party operators, sources the GPUs that fill those halls, and runs the workloads that train and serve Mistral's models. Today the team is around 40 people, mainly based in Paris with some remote members, and operates roughly 200 MW of existing capacity across France. Key partners include Éclairion in France and EcoDC in Sweden, which is currently delivering Mistral's first Swedish data center.\nThe team sits at the center of an ambitious roadmap: Mistral has publicly committed to securing one gigawatt of data center capacity globally by 2030. With 200 MW already online, roughly 800 MW remain to be secured over the next five years.\nThe Role\nThis hire acquires the data center capacity that Mistral's next generation of models will run on. Across Europe, you will negotiate co-location agreements and built-to-suit contracts with data center developers, structure master services agreements and order forms, and make sourcing decisions grounded in a deep understanding of what the capacity will actually be used for: training frontier LLMs, serving inference at scale, or both.\nThe role sits at the intersection of commercial negotiation and technical infrastructure. You will need to translate workload requirements into contract terms, assess whether a given site can deliver the power, cooling, and connectivity Mistral needs, and close deals that lock in capacity years before the GPUs arrive.\nWhat You Will Do\nNegotiate master services agreements, order forms, and co-location or built-to-suit contracts with data center developers across Europe\n\nStructure capacity sourcing decisions based on workload requirements: training, inference, or hybrid\n\nAssess data center sites for power delivery, cooling, connectivity, and commissioning timelines\n\nWork with Mistral's science and infrastructure teams to align capacity plans with model roadmaps\n\nManage relationships with existing data center partners including Éclairion and EcoDC\n\nWhat We're Looking For\nYou have negotiated data center contracts. You have closed master services agreements, order forms, or co-location / built-to-suit deals in the data center or infrastructure sector.\n\nYou understand capacity delivery. You know what it takes to commission a data hall: power, cooling, connectivity, timelines, and the failure modes that delay go-live.\n\nYou can translate technical requirements into commercial terms. You have structured sourcing decisions based on workload needs, whether for training clusters or inference serving.\n\nYou operate across borders. You have worked with counterparties across multiple European jurisdictions and are comfortable with cross-border negotiation.\n\nWhat We Offer\nWe offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your well-being, growth, and work-life balance. Benefits vary by country and may include healthcare coverage, parental leave, retirement plans, relocation support, wellness programs, meal and transportation allowances, and other location-specific perks.\nFor the most up-to-date details on benefits available in your location, please refer to our Benefits page.\nPrivacy Policy\nYour privacy matters to us. You can learn more about how we handle your personal data in our Applicant Privacy Policy.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4072,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Parental leave","Retirement plans","Wellness"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["LLM & Generative AI","Code Intelligence","Foundation Models","AI Research Labs"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-05T15:36:13Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":66,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-11T05:49:22Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-11T15:08:06Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":28126,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":22},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=22"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmistral-ai-data-center-capacity-acquisition"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3814683}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"mistral.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3814683},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
