About OLIX AI is growing faster than any technology in history and the explosion in demand has created a massive infrastructure gap; we can no longer build chips or power stations fast enough to keep up. The industry is still leaning on a ten-year-old hardware blueprint that has reached its limit. A new paradigm that is faster and more efficient will be the biggest economic opportunity of the next century and create the most important company of the next decade. The OLIX Decode Accelerator 1 (DX-1) is the first accelerator architected specifically for decode. Rack-scale co-design of logic, data movement, packaging, optics and interconnect enables a step change in system level performance. The Role Quality at OLIX is not a support function, it is a strategic pillar. As we drive toward tape-out and the transition from development to production, we need a Director of Quality who will build the quality infrastructure that OLIX's technology deserves: rigorous enough to satisfy world-class customers and partners, and lean enough to move at the pace our mission demands.
