Job description

Lead Software Architect (pre-silicon)

We are seeking a Software Architect to join an ex-Nvidia founded and backed team building a charge-domain based inference targeted accelerator, who are now building out their systems software stack.

The team are targeting significant order of magnitude gains in total cost of ownership for inference workloads compared to GPU based systems by integrating memory and computation to improve energy and compute density efficiency. They raised a significant eight figure pre-Series A round, led by a strategic silicon OEM and are pursuing a sizable full Series A.

You’d join as a hands on lead Software Architect to own how models run on the accelerator, from flux runtime, memory and scheduling, kernel mapping through to co-design and bring-up.

We are looking for those with pre-silicon experience, and those who have built software stacks in the run up to tape-out.

Location:Palo Alto

Compensation:up to $350,000 base + bonus and early stage equity.
