Key Responsibilities

  • •Define the RIT strategy, engagement criteria, ownership boundaries, entry/exit criteria, coverage expectations, and escalation thresholds for AI Inference Core.
  • •Engage early on high-risk inference changes and manage dependencies/interaction risks across runtime, host, device programming, memory, scheduling, model execution, infrastructure, and hardware.
  • •Own the inference-path readiness gate by reviewing evidence across unit, simulation, benchmark, feature-test, and integration, documenting gaps, and approving integration readiness.
  • •Lead integrated inference E2E validation across features and the cloud-to-wafer stack, promoting durable tests and adding risk-based scenarios to release regression.
  • •Improve master and release-branch stability using health metrics, failure classification, release-quality reporting, dashboards, qualification workflows, and release pipelines, and lead first-pass regression/rollout triage.

Key Requirements

  • •Strong software-engineering fundamentals and programming ability in Python, C++, Go, or a similar language.
  • •Demonstrated technical leadership in software quality, test infrastructure, systems validation, release engineering, or complex software integration.
  • •Experience designing automation and test architecture for distributed, systems-level, infrastructure, or AI software.
  • •Proven ability to break down ambiguous cross-stack failures, form hypotheses, gather evidence, and drive issues to resolution.
  • •Strong understanding of risk-based testing, release readiness, regression strategy, failure analysis, and quality metrics.
