About the role

  • Unlike a FAANG solutions role, you'll work the entire stack: quantization, custom kernels, and compiler and your fingerprints will be on chips that ship in cars, cameras, and network appliances.

Responsibilities

  • Own the Technical Path to Design Win Convert 2-3 active customer evaluations into committed design wins by getting customer workloads running at target latency and accuracy on Chimera.
  • Drive evaluations forward end-to-end, from first technical conversation through design win.
  • Build the Agentic FDE Toolkit Codify what you learn into reusable assets - SDK skills, porting playbooks, and agentic content - so each subsequent engagement moves faster than the last.
  • Build applications and benchmark collateral that support future customer engagements.
  • Close the Loop Internally Partner with engineering and product teams to relay customer learnings and shape the roadmap.
  • What Success Looks Like Within your first 6-12 months, you'll: Convert 2-3 active customer evaluations into committed design wins on the Chimera platform.
  • Become a trusted technical partner to customer engineering teams, known for translating ambiguous requirements into shipped results.
  • Quadric aims to empower developers in every industry with superpowers to create tomorrow's technology, today.
  • Build deep fluency across the Chimera stack - quantization, custom kernels, and compiler tooling - well enough to unblock customers independently.

Requirements

  • Required Strong C++ and Python
  • Familiarity with agentic dev tooling (Claude Code, MCP) - or strong enthusiasm to adopt it.
  • Palantir-style FDE experience - candidates with embedded or ML-systems backgrounds only.
  • Experience at technical trading arms optimizing kernels or hardware for speed (e.g., DRW, Hudson River, D.E. Shaw, Citadel).
  • Port customer workloads onto Chimera - architect, adapt, profile, and write custom kernels when required.
  • What We're Looking For Required Strong C++ and Python; has written performance-critical code for a constrained target (DSP, NPU, GPU, or embedded SoC).

Nice to have

  • Preferred Prior FAE, Sales Engineering, or FDE title - or startup experience as the de facto owner of an end-to-end implementation.
