Network Systems Architect

As a Network Systems Architect, you will define the scale out, and particularly scale-up network architecture for current and future Cerebras platforms, including proprietary accelerator interconnects, protocols, and switching. Requirements will not arrive as a finished bandwidth and latency specification. Working with application, compiler, runtime, and systems teams, you will study communication patterns, workload partitioning and placement, data and memory movement, synchronization, locality, and failure behavior, then translate them into measurable fabric requirements.

Your primary focus is low-latency scale-up and system fabrics, with enough breadth across scale-out and customer-facing networks to define clean boundaries. You will decide when standards-based or routable technology is right and when a simpler custom protocol or switching design produces a better system result.

Hands-on here means that architectural judgment is grounded in prior low-level implementation, modeling, bring-up, or debugging. You will write specifications, guide models and prototypes, make technical decisions, and stay engaged through implementation and qualification.
