Solutions Architect - US
About FuriosaAI
FuriosaAI builds high-performance, high-efficiency AI compute for the Inference Era. Founded in 2017 by veteran semiconductor and AI algorithm engineers, Furiosa operates globally with offices in Korea and Silicon Valley, along with a compiler-focused R&D lab in Lisbon.
Our vision is to make AI computing sustainable, enabling access to powerful AI for everyone on Earth. We solve the AI hardware energy and operational cost crisis at the architectural level, rather than through brute force, building the world's first truly AI-native compute platform to unlock the full potential of artificial intelligence for every enterprise.
About the Role
FuriosaAI is looking for a Solutions Architect to bring the full potential of our powerful RNGD chips/servers to our customers by acting as the primary technical authority in AI/LLM model deployments. From running POCs to benchmarking and debugging, you will translate RNGD’s powerful system to real-world deployments of customers’ models, empowering customers with FuriosaAI’s powerful solutions.
If you are interested in providing the technical expertise in challenging the current status-quo of AI infrastructure in real-world environments, join us in our path to a sustainable future of AI.
