Job description

SambaNova is a leader in next-generation AI infrastructure, delivering a full-stack inference platform for customers worldwide.

Its decode performance is especially strong for agentic workloads like multi-turn agents, code generation, and long-running applications. RDUs are packaged into SambaRack, rack-scale hardware that lets customers deploy state-of-the‑art models with better performance, greater energy efficiency, and faster time to value.

About the team

The Talent Acquisition team works with SambaNova leadership to build the teams that take our full-stack AI platform to market, from the people who sell and market it to the people who make customers successful and shape the product roadmap.
