Together, we can help shape the endless possibilities of AI.  Location: Hybrid, working onsite at our Santa Clara, Ca headquarters 3-5 days per week. About d-Matrix d-Matrix builds AI inference compute platforms purpose-built for generative AI at scale. Our digital in-memory compute architecture is shipping in the Corsair PCIe accelerator, with multi-chip-module accelerator cards and scale-up rack platforms on the near-term roadmap. We work directly with hyperscalers and ecosystem leaders to bring breakthrough inference economics to production. The Role We're hiring a Director, Systems NPI Engineering to lead the team that takes our next generation of AI accelerator hardware from concept through mass production. You'll own cross-functional execution across board, tray, thermal, power delivery, SI/PI, FW bring-up, and validation — on spec, on cost, and on schedule — reporting to the Sr. Director, Systems Engineering. This is a build role. You'll inherit an in-flight portfolio of accelerator cards, an AI-fabric NIC, and scale-up rack programs, and you'll shape the NPI engineering organization that delivers them. What You'll Do • Drive end-to-end NPI execution from Concept through EVT, DVT, PVT, and MP across multiple concurrent programs. • Own systems-level architectural sign-off and engineering change control for cards, trays, and rack platforms. • Build and lead the NPI engineering org — board / system HW design, FPGA design, NPI lab opera
