We are seeking an exceptional Director of AI Software to lead the full AI software stack that powers our next-generation accelerator platform. This executive-level role owns the strategy, architecture, and execution of all AI software components- including frameworks, compilers, runtime, kernels, developer tools, and end-to-end AI workloads.
You will lead multiple teams responsible for running state-of-the-art models (LLaMA, DeepSeek, diffusion, MoE and future generations of AI), building high-performance kernels, integrating industry frameworks, and delivering a developer-friendly stack to customers, which showcases and materializes the full potential of our hardware.
Responsibilities
Own the vision, roadmap, and execution of the full AI software stack (frameworks, compilers, runtime, kernels, tools).
Lead teams responsible for running and optimizing AI workloads
Deliver first-class support for PyTorch, Triton, IREE, CUDA-compatible flows, and emerging AI frameworks.
Oversee development of high-performance kernels (GEMM, attention, memory ops) and compiler optimizations.
Drive HW/SW co-design with silicon, architecture, and runtime teams to maximize performance and efficiency.
Ensure end-to-end product delivery, including SDKs, toolchains, developer experience, and documentation.
Own benchmarking, performance targets, and competitive analysis
Build, mentor, and scale a multi-disciplinary AI software organization.
Support bring-up, validation, and tuning of new hardware accelerator generations (pre-silicon and post-silicon).
