The era of pervasive AI has arrived. In this era, organizations will use generative AI to unlock hidden value in their data, accelerate processes, reduce costs, drive efficiency and innovation to fundamentally transform their businesses and operations at scale.
SambaNova Suite™ is the first full-stack, generative AI platform, from chip to model, optimized for enterprise and government organizations. Powered by the intelligent SN40L chip, the SambaNova Suite is a fully integrated platform, delivered on-premises or in the cloud, combined with state-of-the-art open-source models that can be easily and securely fine-tuned using customer data for greater accuracy. Once adapted with customer data, customers retain model ownership in perpetuity, so they can turn generative AI into one of their most valuable assets.

What We’re Looking For:
- Strong experience in operating system development, including kernel space drivers and user-space libraries.
- Expertise with communication fabrics (e.g., RDMA, PCIe, Infiniband, RoCE) and high-performance data transport mechanisms.
- Hands-on experience with software bring-up for custom hardware platforms.
- A solid understanding of distributed systems, performance tuning, and large-scale system architecture.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
- Strong communication skills and a passion for mentoring and working with colleagues across teams.
Preferred Skills & Qualifications:
- Familiarity with high-performance computing (HPC) workloads and AI applications.
- Experience with containerization and virtualization technologies.
- A track record of contributing to open-source projects or developing innovative system-level software.
- Enthusiasm for innovation and the drive to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the world of AI.
