Regional Vice President, Sales, AMER (Kimchi)

Location: AMER Why CAST AI? Cast AI is an automation platform that operates cloud-native and AI infrastructure at scale. By embedding autonomous decision-making directly into Kubernetes and cloud environments, Cast AI continuously optimizes performance, reliability, and efficiency in production. The old way doesn't work. As Kubernetes and AI environments grow, manual decisions don’t. Cast AI replaces tickets, alerts, and manual tuning with continuous automation that adapts infrastructure as conditions change. Efficiency and cost savings follow naturally from that automation. Over 2,100 companies already rely on Cast AI, including Akamai, BMW, Cisco, FICO, HuggingFace, NielsenIQ, Swisscom, and TGS. Global team, diverse perspectives We're headquartered in Miami, but our impact is international. We take a global and intentional approach to diversity. Today, Cast AI operates across 34 countries spanning Europe, North America, Latin America, and APAC, bringing a wide range of perspectives into how we build and lead. Unicorn momentum In January 2026, we achieved unicorn status with a strategic investment from Pacific Alliance Ventures, the corporate venture arm of Shinsegae Group (a $50+ billion Korean conglomerate). Our valuation now exceeds $1 billion, and we're just getting started. Join us as we build the future of autonomous infrastructure. Our Client Partners work closely with our existing customers to build long-lasting customer relationships and ensure increased adoption, quick value realization and long-term delight for each customer's journey. Account Managers will also be tasked with upselling and cross-selling our existing and new solutions to their managed accounts and will be compensated accordingly based on these results. Product Overview Kimchi is Cast AI's governed AI coding platform - an autonomous coding agent, inference layer, and spend control in one. By intelligently routing tasks across more than 50 open-weight and frontier models, Kimchi helps engineering organizations scale AI-assisted development without losing control of cost, security, or data. As agentic AI coding becomes core infrastructure, token costs multiply, spend limits are merely opt-in, and source code flows to external models with little governance. Kimchi solves this with smart model orchestration, real-time cost attribution and enforced budget caps, agent guardrails, and full data sovereignty - including self-hosted deployment for the most regulated environments. About the Role AI-assisted development is becoming organizational infrastructure, yet most enterprises lack visibility and control over AI coding costs, model usage, and source-code governance across their engineering teams.
