Firmware Engineer Lead,
Bangalore / Hyderabad
We are actively seeking a Firmware Engineer Lead, based in Hyderabad / Bangalore
we are redefining the economics of AI infrastructure. Our mission is to democratise AI by significantly reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of hardware systems — a critical barrier to scalable adoption.
Our proprietary MIMO-over-copper technology powers a high-performance, chiplet-based AI memory fabric that is both scalable and energy-efficient. Unlike traditional interconnects, our solution reduces power consumption significantly while preserving high bandwidth and ultra-low latency — unlocking unprecedented efficiency for AI training and inference at scale.
our architecture is not just an incremental improvement — it's a foundational shift in how AI hardware is built for the future.
