Bring the best available components and engineering partners into one coherent personal-computing product.
Not open yet: Pilot expansion
This work starts when that stage arrives, so there is no application to submit today and we will not pretend otherwise. What is written below is what the role is for and what would make somebody right for it, published early on purpose so you can decide whether it is worth watching.
The work
Develop technical relationships with chip, computer, memory, networking and manufacturing companies. Align roadmaps, evaluation access, support and commercial terms with the hardware team. Turn promising discussions into scoped engineering work with owners and acceptance criteria.
The milestone
In your first 90 days, deliver a partner map, two substantive technical evaluations and one decision-ready collaboration proposal.
Evidence
Bring technical partnership experience and enough systems fluency to understand real integration limits. Show outcomes from relationships you helped build, not only the names of companies you know.
Evidence, not credentials. We are describing work you can point at, in whatever form it exists.
The exercise
Structure a reference-device collaboration where responsibilities for firmware, security patches, warranty and repair must be explicit.
