About the Role

Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. Our novel wafer-scale architecture provides the AI compute power of dozens of GPUs on a single chip, with the programming simplicity of a single device. This approach allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds and empowers machine learning users to effortlessly run large-scale ML applications, without the hassle of managing hundreds of GPUs or TPUs.

Cerebras' current customers include top model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.

Thanks to the groundbreaking wafer-scale architecture, Cerebras Inference offers the fastest Generative AI inference solution in the world, 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.

As an Infrastructure Hardware Technical Program Manager (Server and Network Systems) on the Cluster Architecture Team, you will drive end-to-end delivery of server and network platform programs across Cerebras CS-3–based AI clusters — from requirements and vendor selection through lab bring-up, qualification, and production rollout. You will be the execution owner for multi-team programs spanning OEM/ODM partners, component vendors, internal software/runtime teams and architects, validation/QA, and deployment/operations.

This role is intentionally technical: you must understand server, network, and system-level trade-offs well enough to run effective technical reviews, keep programs grounded in real constraints, and maintain a crisp decision trail - while partnering closely with the Compute / Server / Network Platform Architects for detailed technical direction and sign-off. You will also build shared understanding with our rack/elevations and physical datacenter design partners so that server and network changes land smoothly in real deployments (without owning physical DC design).
