Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Infrastructure Hardware Technical Program Manager (Server and Network Systems) - **Company:** Cerebras Systems - **Location:** United States - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, BIOS, Computer Engineering, Distributed Systems, Firmware, Networking Hardware, Linux Servers, Networking Basics, PCI Express, Management of Software Versions, Computer Networking Systems, Information Technology - **Published:** July 24, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=a2d9994a5b69acf8 ## About the Role * B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience. * 8+ years in Technical Program Management (or similar delivery leadership) for server, network, or infrastructure platforms from concept through production. * Experience coordinating complex server and/or datacenter network programs across OEM/ODMs, switch vendors, and internal engineering teams. * Working knowledge of server architecture (CPU/NUMA, memory bandwidth, PCIe, NIC and storage IO) and enough networking fundamentals (leaf-spine fabrics, switch platforms, high-performance interconnects) to run effective technical reviews. * Familiarity with Linux server fleet management (provisioning, firmware/BIOS, drivers, field triage). * Strong multi-team program execution skills: integrated plans, risk management, dependency tracking, and executive-level communication. * Ability to operate in ambiguity and keep parallel server and network workstreams aligned. * Experience with AI/ML, HPC, or performance-sensitive distributed infrastructure is a plus. ## Description This role is intentionally technical: you must understand server, network, and system-level trade-offs well enough to run effective technical reviews, keep programs grounded in real constraints, and maintain a crisp decision trail - while partnering closely with the Compute / Server / Network Platform Architects for detailed technical direction and sign-off. You will also build shared understanding with our rack/elevations and physical datacenter design partners so that server and network changes land smoothly in real deployments (without owning physical DC design)., * Own end-to-end program execution for server systems and network equipment in Cerebras clusters, including new platforms, refreshes, and major component/config changes. * Drive requirements gathering and convert inputs into executable plans with clear milestones, readiness gates, and cross-functional deliverables. * Represent Cluster Architecture in executive reviews, OKR cycles, and leadership/customer forums as needed. * Build and manage integrated schedules across vendors and internal teams, track dependencies, critical path, and risks. * Manage OEM/ODM and switch/vendor engagements (RFI/RFP, samples, escalations, roadmap alignment). * Partner with Compute / Server Platform / Network Architects to turn architectural decisions into qualification plans, acceptance criteria, and rollout strategies. * Lead qualification and release readiness (lab/staging validation, regression tracking, go/no-go decisions). * Own risk and change management into production, including versioning, rollout sequencing, and stakeholder communication. * Ensure operational readiness with deployment and fleet teams and maintain alignment with rack/physical DC owners on power, cooling, space, and cabling constraints. ## Related Videos - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [10M Data Records Lost, Underwater Computing, and Psychedelic Fish - Matthias Geniar](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1908-10m-data-records-lost-underwater-computing-and-psychedelic-fish-matthias-geniar) - [Playing Pong on a shoulder press machine](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100140-playing-pong-on-a-shoulder-press-machine) - [Building the Nervous System of AI - Michael Kagan (NVIDIA)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2133-building-the-nervous-system-of-ai-michael-kagan-nvidia) - [How to Submit CFPs and Get into Public Speaking - Moran Weber](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2112-how-to-submit-cfps-and-get-into-public-speaking-moran-weber) - [Agent Smith Gets Hardware: Autonomous IoT Hacking From Debug Port to Cloud API](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100258-agent-smith-gets-hardware-autonomous-iot-hacking-from-debug-port-to-cloud-api) ## Related Articles - [Everything a Developer Needs to Know About MCP with Neo4j](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/604-everything-a-developer-needs-to-know-about-mcp-with-neo4j) - [Best US AI Conferences for CTOs in 2026: Build vs. Buy, Vendor Evaluation, and Peer Intelligence](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/736-best-us-ai-conferences-for-ctos-in-2026-build-vs-buy-vendor-evaluation-and-peer-intelligence) - [7 Cloud Computing Trends Coming in 2025 for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/412-7-cloud-computing-trends-coming-in-2025-for-developers) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [6 Emerging Technologies We’ll Learn About in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/381-6-emerging-technologies-we-ll-learn-about-in-2025) - [From developer to manager – what does it take to become an engineering manager?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/42-from-developer-to-manager-what-does-it-take-to-become-an-engineering-manager)
