Efficient Computer is rethinking computing from the ground up to solve one of AI's biggest challenges: energy. Our Fabric architecture delivers a 10–100x improvement in energy efficiency for general-purpose computation, including AI, while supporting familiar programming languages and software frameworks—unlocking new possibilities for autonomous machines, intelligent infrastructure, wearables, and space systems. With our first processor, Electron E1, now shipping in volume and more than $97 million in Series B financing recently announced, we're accelerating customer deployments and scaling our architecture to data center performance. Join us to build the hardware and software that bring intelligence wherever it's needed and help shape the next generation of computing.
The Senior Product Manager - Software owns the strategy and direction for Efficient Computer’s developer platform - including the compiler, SDK, runtime integrations, model enablement stack, and overall developer experience. 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.
Success in this role requires thinking beyond individual features and approaching the platform as a complete developer ecosystem. The Software PM is responsible for defining product direction, prioritization, customer requirements, and developer experience outcomes, while partnering closely with software engineering, silicon architecture, applications engineering, marketing, and customer-facing teams.
This is a highly cross-functional product leadership role focused on strategy, platform evolution, and business impact — not project management or sprint administration. The Software PM defines what should be built, why it matters, how success is measured, and how priorities align with customer and company goals, while engineering teams own implementation and execution.
Success looks like:
- Developers achieve production-ready applications quickly, without white-glove engineering support
- The compiler and SDK become a competitive advantage, not an adoption bottleneck
- Framework support and tooling reduce evaluation friction and accelerate customer design-ins
- Software capabilities directly influence customer wins and silicon roadmap decisions
Key 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, including compatibility, validation coverage, performance expectations, and support commitments.
