The posting

SambaNova is a leader in next-generation AI infrastructure, delivering a full-stack inference platform for customers worldwide. At the core of SambaNova's technology is the RDU (Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit) — a chip built on a dataflow architecture rather than the traditional GPU model. Its decode performance is especially strong for agentic workloads like multi-turn agents, code generation, and long-running applications. RDUs are packaged into SambaRack, rack-scale hardware that lets customers deploy state-of-the-art models with better performance, greater energy efficiency, and faster time to value.

About the team

Join the company that's building the future of AI infrastructure. SambaNova is developing advanced AI systems powered by our RDU (Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit) architecture, combining hardware and software into an integrated platform for large-scale AI deployments.

Our products include SambaRack, a rack-scale AI infrastructure system, and SambaStack, our inference serving platform. Together, they enable customers to deploy and operate production AI environments with performance, reliability, and control.

We are a team of engineers and innovators building next-generation AI infrastructure systems designed for enterprise-scale deployments.

  • Identify and help resolve performance bottlenecks, reliability gaps, and scaling constraints within owned components
  • Collaborate with Hardware Engineering, DevOps, QA, and Product teams to implement infrastructure requirements as sound technical solutions
  • Apply and help refine architectural standards, patterns, and best practices within the infrastructure software team
  • Partner with senior engineers and architects on technical designs, and share knowledge with peers to support engineering excellence
  • Stay current on emerging technologies and industry trends relevant to the platform and assigned work
  • Build new systems, components, and capabilities to solve new and interesting problems in the AI inference space

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
