About the role

Our novel wafer-scale architecture provides the AI compute power of dozens of GPUs on a single chip, with the programming simplicity of a single device.
OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.
Thanks to the groundbreaking wafer-scale architecture, Cerebras Inference offers the fastest Generative AI inference solution in the world, over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services.

Own end-to-end program execution for server systems and network equipment in Cerebras clusters, including new platforms, refreshes, and major component/config changes.
Drive requirements gathering and convert inputs into executable plans with clear milestones, readiness gates, and cross-functional deliverables.
Build and manage integrated schedules across vendors and internal teams, track dependencies, critical path, and risks.
Manage OEM/ODM and switch/vendor engagements (RFI/RFP, samples, escalations, roadmap alignment).
Partner with Compute / Server Platform / Network Architects to turn architectural decisions into qualification plans, acceptance criteria, and rollout strategies.
Lead qualification and release readiness (lab/staging validation, regression tracking, go/no-go decisions).
Own risk and change management into production, including versioning, rollout sequencing, and stakeholder communication.
Ensure operational readiness with deployment and fleet teams and maintain alignment with rack/physical DC owners on power, cooling, space, and cabling constraints.
People who are serious about software make their own hardware.
Build a breakthrough AI platform beyond the constraints of the GPU.

This order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation.

B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
Experience coordinating complex server and/or datacenter network programs across OEM/ODMs, switch vendors, and internal engineering teams.
Familiarity with Linux server fleet management (provisioning, firmware/BIOS, drivers, field triage).
Ability to operate in ambiguity and keep parallel server and network workstreams aligned.
Experience with AI/ML, HPC, or performance-sensitive distributed infrastructure is a plus.
integrated plans, risk management, dependency tracking, and executive-level communication.
