Director, SI/PI
About the role
We are seeking a Director to drive Signal Integrity, Power Integrity of our first generation MPU. It involves all aspects for SI/PI from silicon to system. This role will be performed onsite from one of our offices in Santa Clara, CA or Boston, MA.
Impact: We are tackling a fundamental challenge at the infrastructure layer: unlocking greater AI capability while dramatically improving efficiency. The work we do here compounds across state-of-the-art AI models, systems, and real-world applications. Timing: Joining now means real ownership of the company and meaningful influence over product direction and execution. You’ll work from first principles, move quickly from insight to execution, and see your contributions directly reflected in what we build. Culture: You’ll work alongside a group of people who care deeply about rigor, clarity, and impact. We value thoughtful disagreement, fast learning, and intellectual fearlessness. This is a place where strong ideas shine, curiosity is encouraged, and growth is a daily practice.
