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 role SambaNova Systems is looking for a talented and motivated ASIC Network Architect to help us solve the most challenging and impactful problems in machine learning and artificial intelligence. Responsibilities Conduct research and development in state of the art networking solutions Define and own networking architecture specifications for performant, robust, and efficient communications on the next generation super-pod scale ML hardware Define and own the ML networking roadmap, leading a cross-functional effort across software, systems, and silicon Work with executive leadership to align network initiatives with product competitiveness requirements Track and contribute to industry standards, representing SambaNova Required Qualifications B.S.
