About MatX

We make the best chips physically possible for the large model needs of frontier labs.

About the role

Own MatX’s shared power architecture framework for server-class AI accelerators. Define power budgets, models, targets, and tradeoff methods.

What they're looking for

  • Deep experience in power architecture, power modeling, power methodology, or power-performance analysis for complex chips
  • Ability to reason across architecture, RTL, PD, firmware, platform, and thermal constraints and tradeoffs
  • Experience building early models to influence direction and later models for correlation
  • Strong analytical skills for modeling, automation, and data analysis
  • Clear judgment in ambiguous cross-functional decisions
  • Credibility with senior technical counterparts across multiple disciplines
More about this role

MatX's mission is to make the world’s best AI models run as efficiently as allowed by physics, bringing the world years ahead in AI quality and availability.

We are looking for a Power Architect to drive power architecture and cross-stack power tradeoffs for our next-generation products.

MatX is vertically integrated, which means important power decisions can happen anywhere: architecture, RTL, physical design, platform. This role connects those layers. You will work with domain owners as true technical counterparts, understand their constraints, and help MatX make better power decisions as the design moves from idea through deployment. You’re not expected to own every implementation domain, but you are expected to understand enough across the stack to surface tradeoffs, build shared models, and drive aligned decisions.
