CScale is building the interconnect for gigawatt-scale AI. As AI scale-up moves toward deployments spanning thousands of accelerators and dozens of racks, the network needs to deliver high bandwidth, predictable low latency, and continuous communication. CScale is building integrated optical interconnect designed for this new scale, enabling accelerators to work together like a single, much larger computer. But at this scale, performance is only part of the challenge. Optical failures are inevitable, and the system needs to keep running. CScale is designing the interconnect for continuity. Lasers will fail. Compute shouldn’t. The ambition is simple: Build AI interconnect you can take for granted. CScale came out of stealth in September 2026 with $145 million in Series C funding, bringing total funding to $188 million.

The Role

A build role spanning three intertwined domains: design infrastructure (the CAD, compute, and EDA environment our silicon depends on), corporate IT (identity, endpoints, connectivity, and SaaS globally, and the security program that spans both.



You will operate an EDA setting, a three-zone infrastructure model (Corporate, Design/CAD, Lab/OT) governed by export-control classification. CAD and IT carry equal weight, and security is required within both. And we expect aggression on AI: this role drives aggressive AI use and adoption across the company rather than waiting to be asked.

What You Will Own

• Design infrastructure & CAD. Design compute (batch scheduling, cloud burst), EDA licensing operations — license servers, utilization telemetry, denial-rate and cost-per-seat reporting; contract and IP negotiation stays with company leadership — the access-controlled PDK enclave, design data management, and storage engineered for EDA workloads.
• Corporate IT. Identity as a system (single IdP, SAML/SCIM, conditional access, hardware-key MFA), the global Windows/macOS/Linux endpoint fleet under unified MDM, WAN globally, the SaaS portfolio a
