AI Inference Core - SDET Technical Lead, Release Integration Testing

Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services. This order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation. Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership https://openai.com/index/cerebras-partnership/ with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference. ABOUT THE ROLE We are looking for a hands-on SDET Technical Lead to establish and lead Release Integration Testing within Release & Feature Qualification for AI Inference Core. The Production Engine for Inference Core — turning integrated features into reliable production releases. You will define the quality strategy across the pre-release and release cycle, from feature and model integration through branch stability, release qualification, deployment, and post-release learning. You will work across AI frameworks, runtime, compiler, kernels, distributed systems, infrastructure, and hardware to make release risk visible and actionable. This is a technical-leadership role, not a coordination-only position. You will design test architecture, lead difficult debugging and release decisions, mentor engineers, and write software and automation alongside the team. Release Integration Testing (RIT) is the bridge between feature qualification and release qualification. Feature teams retain ownership of feature design, feature-level qualification, and feature regression. Release Integration Testing owns inference-core integration strategy, inference-path readiness approval, integrated cross-stack validation, and first-pass rollout triage. WHAT
