Member of Technical Staff - Partner Inference Engineer

Required

• We need someone who:
• Understands the silicon: Knows how NPU, GPU and CPU blocks on an edge SoC are composed, how a model gets lowered onto them, and why a chip vendor wants a model partner.
• Has done it, not planned it: Has personally taken models onto edge hardware, measured latency, power and thermal, and can explain where performance was lost.
• Wants the partner-facing work: Can be put in front of a partner's customer engineers or an OEM buyer, co-create a demo, and read their incentives. If you want to work purely on fundamentals, this is the wrong role, and we would rather say so now.
• Owns ambiguity: There is no process for partner profiling. You design it, make the silicon work as it is, and hand clear diagnoses to Edge Inference rather than working around them.
• Own and manage the partner device lab: every SoC that Qualcomm, AMD, Intel, NVDA as well as other chip makers building SoCs for edge and physical AI devices ship us
• Lower LFMs onto partner silicon and profile speed, latency, power and thermal
• Work directly with partner customer engineers to co-create demos and benchmark narratives
• Present results to partners and demand-side buyers, explaining why LFMs on their silicon beat the alternative
• Flag model and runtime performance gaps to Edge Inference with a clear hardware-level diagnosis they can act on
• Where capability allows, contribute to runtime and model-level optimization directly
• Desired Experience
