Full Job Description

What MatX Is Building MatX is on a mission to be the compute platform for AGI. We are developing vertically integrated full-stack solutions from silicon to systems including hardware and software to train and run the largest ML workloads for AGI. MatX is seeking silicon micro-architects and design engineers to join our team as we create best-in-class silicon for high-performance and sustainable GenAI. Successful candidates for these roles will be responsible for delivering performant and functionally accurate silicon for MatX products across compute, memory management. High-speed connectivity and other key technologies. About the Role MatX is building next-generation AI infrastructure systems for high-performance datacenter workloads. We are looking for a Senior Platform TPM, Rack-Scale AI Systems to drive design-phase execution for our rack-scale platform. This role will coordinate cross-functional execution across rack architecture, accelerator board design, power delivery, thermal and liquid cooling, high-speed interconnect, firmware, diagnostics, test vehicles, system validation, and external CM/JDM partner engagement. You will work closely with Systems Engineering, hardware engineering, firmware, validation, supply chain, and external CM/JDM partners. What You'll Do Here Drive the integrated execution plan for rack and board design from architecture through design release. Own and maintain the design-phase master schedule across rack, board, power, thermal, interconnect, mechanical, firmware, diagnostics, validation, and supply-chain dependencies. Coordinate execution across key platform workstreams, including board electrical/SI/PI readiness, rack power, liquid cooling, cable/optical interconnect, BMC/telemetry, diagnostics, test vehicles, PLM/BOM/ECO readiness, and external CM/JDM design reviews. Partner with Systems Engineering to define design gates, risks, dependencies, decision points, and exit criteria. Track critical path items, schedule risks, owners,
