About the role
We are seeking a Business Development Manager to drive growth in FPGA-based solutions across the Physical AI domain – spanning robotics, autonomous systems, industrial and factory automation, and edge AI. This role focuses on expanding design wins across intelligent machines that sense, decide, and act in the physical world, from collaborative robots and autonomous platforms to factory-automation controllers and edge AI appliances.
What they're looking for
- Deterministic, low-latency control and motion loops
- High-throughput, low-power edge AI inference
- Multi-sensor aggregation and time synchronization
- Functional safety for human-machine collaboration
- Reconfigurability across evolving platforms and long industrial lifecycles
- Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field (Master's preferred)
More about this role
We are seeking a Business Development Manager to drive growth in FPGA-based solutions across the Physical AI domain – spanning robotics, autonomous systems, industrial and factory automation, and edge AI. This role focuses on expanding design wins across intelligent machines that sense, decide, and act in the physical world, from collaborative robots and autonomous platforms to factory-automation controllers and edge AI appliances. You will act as the bridge between customers, product management, engineering, and ecosystem partners to position FPGA solutions against competing architectures including ASSPs/SoCs, GPUs, and microcontroller-based platforms.
Physical AI is converging perception, decision, and actuation onto real-time machines while pushing more intelligence to the edge, and industrial automation is moving toward connected, software-defined, and AI-enabled factories. FPGAs are uniquely positioned to unify deterministic control, sensor fusion, real-time networking, and edge AI inference on a single adaptable platform. As several of these markets are fast-emerging, the role includes helping establish and scale the market motion – which requires strong technical business...
