Senior Principal Rack System Integration Engineer

About the Team

The team integrates SambaNova's AI accelerators into rack scale systems and gets them deployed in customer datacenters. We handle the racking and stacking of tightly integrated network, power, and compute equipment in both prototype and production environments, and we take rack solutions through prototyping into mass production so they stay manufacturable and serviceable at scale. We work with architects, engineering teams, customer datacenter teams, sales, and marketing, and we manage vendor relationships to align the equipment with our current and future roadmap.
