Key Responsibilities

• Market research & strategy

• build a sharp understanding of the AI inference and LLM market (buyer needs, adoption patterns, evaluation criteria, and emerging trends)

• identify high-value segments and use cases where we can win (cost, performance, latency, throughput, energy, deployment model, etc.)

• Competitive & ecosystem analysis

• maintain an up-to-date view of competitors and alternatives (chips, systems, cloud offerings, and inference stacks)

• translate competitive insights into positioning, requirements, and roadmap priorities

• Requirements & roadmap ownership
