About the role
<div class="content-intro"><p><span data-contrast="none">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. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559685":0,"335559737":240,"335559738":240,"335559739":240,"335559740":279}"> </span></p>
<p>Cerebras' current customers include top model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. <a href="https://openai.com/index/cerebras-partnership/">OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras</a>, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference. </p>
<p>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.</p></div><p><strong><em><span data-contrast="none"><span data-ccp-parastyle="heading 4">Key </span><span data-ccp-parastyle="heading 4">Responsibilities</span></span></em></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"134245418":true,"134245529":true,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559738":319,"335559739":319}"> </span></p>
