SambaNova is the #1 platform for business AI.
The Role
Create technical messaging, demos, collateral, and enablement for AI infrastructure and inference use cases. Translate hardware and architecture details into customer- and field-facing materials, support launches and benchmarking, and partner with product, engineering, sales, and field teams to refine positioning and technical proof points.
Summary Generated by Built In

The era of pervasive AI has arrived. In this era, organizations will use generative AI to unlock hidden value in their data, accelerate processes, reduce costs, drive efficiency and innovation to fundamentally transform their businesses and operations at scale.

SambaNova Suite™ is the first full-stack, generative AI platform, from chip to model, optimized for enterprise and government organizations. Powered by the intelligent SN40L chip, the SambaNova Suite is a fully integrated platform, delivered on-premises or in the cloud, combined with state-of-the-art open-source models that can be easily and securely fine-tuned using customer data for greater accuracy. Once adapted with customer data, customers retain model ownership in perpetuity, so they can turn generative AI into one of their most valuable assets.

About the Role

This role sits at the intersection of product, engineering, and go-to-market. You will help shape how SambaNova explains its technology to the market by turning complex technical ideas into usable narratives, content, and enablement. The right candidate is not a pure marketer — they are a technical translator and builder who is comfortable getting deep on AI inference, accelerators, workloads, and customer-facing technical storytelling.


Responsibilities

  • Build technical messaging, presentations, demos, collateral, and enablement content for AI infrastructure and inference use cases
  • Explain complex hardware and inference concepts clearly, including memory bandwidth, interconnect, quantization, throughput vs. latency, and cost-per-token tradeoffs
  • Partner closely with product, engineering, developer relations, sales, solutions, and field teams to develop narratives that are both technically accurate and commercially useful
  • Support launches, customer conversations, benchmarking discussions, and technical field enablement
  • Translate product and architecture details into materials that help customers, partners, and sellers understand why the platform matters
  • Collect market and field feedback to sharpen positioning, proof points, and educational content over time

What We’re Looking For

  • 3–8 years of experience in technical product marketing, technical marketing engineering, solutions architecture, field applications engineering, developer marketing, or a closely related role
  • Strong technical fluency in semiconductors, accelerators, AI infrastructure, datacenter systems, or inference workloads
  • Ability to understand and communicate hardware tradeoffs for large-model inference in a technically credible way
  • Proven ability to create customer-facing or field-facing technical content, demos, presentations, training materials, or educational assets
  • Strong cross-functional instincts and the ability to work effectively with engineering, product, sales, and customer-facing teams
  • Scrappy, startup-oriented mindset with comfort operating in ambiguity and high-ownership environments

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in AI/ML infrastructure, GPU or accelerator ecosystems, datacenter hardware, or performance-sensitive systems
  • Hands-on familiarity with benchmarking, workload optimization, proof-of-concepts, or technical competitive positioning
  • Public teaching signal such as blog posts, talks, demos, documentation, LinkedIn content, or other technical communication
  • Experience supporting sales enablement, partner enablement, or developer and community education
  • Bay Area-based or excited to work closely with a Bay Area team
