Role Summary
Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services.
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.
Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership https://openai.com/index/cerebras-partnership/ with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.
Responsibilities
- Lead printed circuit board design through all development stages: from definition to implementation, bring-up, qualification, and production release.
- Full responsibility for electrical specification, schematic design, components selection, and layout considerations.
- Extensive lab bring-up and debugging, including developing automated benchtop setups for board characterization.
- Collaborate with various design and operations teams: manufacturing operations & test engineering, supply chain, ASIC, mechanical, signal integrity, power delivery, layout, embedded & diagnostic, etc.
Skills & Qualifications
- B.S.c, M.S.c, or Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering, or equivalent experience.
- 5 to 10 years of experience as a board design engineer (exceptional candidates with other experience levels will also be considered).
- Experience with digital circuits, power delivery, voltage regulators, and high-speed signal integrity.
- System-level understanding and familiarity with production environment.
- Proficiency with lab/test scripting SW (e.g., Python).
- Personal skills: self-instruction, multi-disciplined, multi-tasking and good interpersonal relationship.
