Full Job Description

Lead competitive assessments of AI accelerators, CPUs, memory, networking, storage, and rack-scale infrastructure supporting Azure's Maia, Cobalt, and AI systems roadmaps. Evaluate competitor and industry roadmaps across architecture, process technology, performance, power, memory, system configuration, deployment timing, and supply-chain dependencies. Develop analytical models that connect product specifications, workload performance, power, cost, and utilization to assess platform competitiveness and total cost of ownership. Synthesize inputs from engineering teams, performance measurements, financial models, suppliers, market research, and public information into a consistent, decision-ready view of the competitive landscape. Identify key technology and product decision points across silicon architecture, memory, packaging, networking, and system design, and assess their implications for future Azure products. Partner with architecture, engineering, workload, performance, finance, sourcing, and product-planning teams to evaluate tradeoffs and align assumptions across organizations. Translate complex and incomplete information into clear insights, scenarios, and recommendations for product teams and senior leaders. Establish repeatable analyses, dashboards, and review mechanisms that improve the consistency, transparency, and reuse of competitive, performance, and cost information.
