About Positron AI

About Positron AI Positron AI is building next-generation AI inference accelerators designed from the ground up for low-latency, high-throughput large language model inference. Backed by NEA.

About the role

Positron AI is looking for a technical product planning leader to own the definition of our silicon and systems product line, from accelerator architecture through to full rack scale inference systems. This is the person who decides what we build, why we build it, and how we explain that decision to engineering, to our go-to-market teams, and to our customers.

What they're looking for

  • 10+ years experience with a strong mix of these types of technical skills:
  • silicon or systems engineering or architecture (AI accelerator, CPU/GPU, networking, or memory systems), with direct ownership of feature/PPA or architecture trade-offs
  • cloud scale server & computing systems deployments touching on power/cooling envelopes, rack integration, networking, fleet wide telemetry, failure & RMA
  • OEM&ODM needs for reference designs, and compliance and hardware qualification cycles
  • performance analysis spanning silicon & systems: roofline modeling, bandwidth utilization, $/GB and perf/W arithmetic — able to build and defend the math personally
  • AI inference systems competitive landscaping and analysis, either at an AI hardware startup or an incumbent AI hardware systems provider
More about this role

Positron AI is looking for a technical product planning leader to own the definition of our silicon and systems product line, from accelerator architecture through to full rack scale inference systems. This is the person who decides what we build, why we build it, and how we explain that decision to engineering, to our go-to-market teams, and to our customers.

You will write the PRDs that anchor our hardware roadmap, translate customer and market signals into concrete engineering requirements, and maintain the analytical backbone (performance modeling, competitive landscaping, cost and efficiency math) that makes those requirements defensible. The role sits at the intersection of deep silicon detail and cloud scale deployment reality, and it carries real influence over the direction of the product.

  • Be the leader in Positron for all aspects of Silicon & Systems Technical Product Planning.
  • Write PRDs for our inference servers, and inference rack systems spanning silicon architecture, CPU & memory, through to rack scale systems.
  • Work with engineering and GTM on communicating a roadmap.
  • Work closely with GTM teams to understand customer and market needs.
  • Define and manage...
