Staff Software Engineer, Inference Cloud

Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; 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.

Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.

About the Role

We're hiring a Staff Engineer to own major areas of the architecture of our Inference Cloud Platform. This team owns the cloud layer behind our Inference Service, with responsibility for availability, latency, reliability, and global scale.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role for an engineer who wants to work on the hardest distributed systems problems in the stack: multi-region traffic architecture, graceful degradation under bursty AI workloads, performance at high QPS, and the operating model f
