MatX
MatX is seeking a senior-level engineer to lead the design, qualification, and productization of next‑generation optical interconnect technologies for AI scale‑up and scale‑out networks. The role covers the full lifecycle from component characterization and link‑budget analysis to system‑level bring‑up and data‑center deployment, focusing on pluggable, NPO, and CPO integration approaches.
MatX designs high-throughput chips and systems purpose-built for large transformer AI models, with their MatX One chip delivering leading FLOPS/mm2, low-latency decode, and the most scale-up interconnect of any announced product. Supporting clusters of hundreds of thousands of chips, MatX targets training, RL, and inference workloads for large dense and MoE models with no upper limit on model size, serving the large model needs of frontier labs. MatX provides a programming model that gives users direct hardware control, with weights typically in SRAM for low latency and KVs in HBM for long-context support.
