Network Solutions Architect

SambaNova is a leader in next-generation AI infrastructure, delivering a full-stack inference platform for customers worldwide. At the core of SambaNova's technology is the RDU (Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit) — a chip built on a dataflow architecture rather than the traditional GPU model. Its decode performance is especially strong for agentic workloads like multi-turn agents, code generation, and long-running applications. RDUs are packaged into SambaRack, rack-scale hardware that lets customers deploy state-of-the-art models with better performance, greater energy efficiency, and faster time to value.

We are looking for a Network Solutions Architect to join the Sambanova team focused on supporting Sambanova Customers as they build the next-generation infrastructure. As a part of the Sambanova solutions architecture team dedicated to Sambanova Customers, you will be driving end-to-end technology solution integration with some of Sambanova's most strategic customers as well as offering recommendations for business and engineering teams based on customer feedback on product strategy.
