About the Role

Efficient is developing the world’s most energy-efficient general-purpose computer processor. This role is critical to customer adoption and long-term ecosystem growth, translating Efficient’s hardware capabilities into a scalable, developer-ready platform that enables customers to build, optimize, and deploy applications efficiently.

Responsibilities

  • Define the product roadmap for the compiler, SDK, runtime, model conversion and enablement tooling, and developer platform.
  • Set priorities based on customer requirements, competitive positioning, and strategic platform needs.
  • Lead framework and model enablement strategy across PyTorch, ONNX, ExecuTorch, LiteRT, and future runtimes.
  • Drive reduction in time-to-first-working-application (TTFWA) across customer segments.
  • Establish SDK governance: surface area, versioning, API stability commitments, and deprecation policy.
  • Define release quality criteria, validation expectations, and backward compatibility standards.
  • Drive developer confidence through reproducible benchmarking, deterministic tooling behavior, clear diagnostics, and strong documentation.
  • Participate in customer engagements to understand workflow friction, deployment blockers, and framework requirements.
  • Represent software platform strategy in technical customer discussions and ecosystem partnerships.
  • Gather and prioritize developer feedback across evaluation, onboarding, optimization, and deployment phases.
  • Maintain structured mechanisms to feed developer feedback directly into roadmap decisions.
  • Partner with Applications Engineering to define software platform capabilities for production-quality reference applications and customer evaluation flows.
  • Define requirements for profiling, debugging, and performance analysis workflows.
  • Balance long-term platform investments against near-term customer enablement and revenue-driving requirements.
  • Influence silicon decisions based on software needs and constraints.
  • Partner with the Hardware PM and architecture team when compiler or runtime requirements have silicon implications.
  • Establish and own developer success metrics and developer workflow metrics and diagnostics.
  • Define and own the SDK release cadence, packaging, distribution, and support lifecycle.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of product management experience for developer-facing software platforms - SDKs, compilers, runtimes, APIs, ML tooling, or embedded developer ecosystems
  • Experience shipping tools and platforms used directly by external developers, including operating through the customer-zero phase
  • Demonstrated ownership of developer adoption, onboarding success, workflow completion, or related developer productivity metrics
  • Strong understanding of modern ML inference and deployment pipelines (PyTorch, ONNX, ExecuTorch, LiteRT (formerly TensorFlow Lite), TensorRT, or equivalent)
  • Experience translating customer workflows and technical constraints into actionable product requirements that engineering can build from without ambiguity
  • Familiarity with software performance tradeoffs involving memory, latency, throughput, power, and hardware utilization
  • Ability to work effectively with compiler, runtime, systems software, and silicon architecture teams and to influence without authority across all of them
  • Ability to establish credibility with highly technical developers, compiler engineers, and ML practitioners through clear thinking, technical depth, and strong customer empathy.
  • Experience with compiler toolchains, IRs, and deployment flows (LLVM, MLIR, TOSA, XLA, or equivalent)
  • Experience with embedded AI deployment pipelines and edge inference workflows
  • Experience at a semiconductor or AI hardware company building developer tools for a novel architecture
  • Familiarity with embedded software ecosystems (FreeRTOS, CMSIS-NN, MCU SDK patterns) and Linux-based embedded development environments and cross-compilation workflows
  • Experience with performance profiling tools, compiler traces, and benchmark-driven optimization workflows
  • Experience with benchmarking methodologies (MLPerf or equivalent)
  • Experience operating in early-stage environments with incomplete requirements and rapidly evolving architectures
  • Experience in startup environments with hybrid PM + DevRel responsibilities
