Opportunities from Cerebras Systems Opportunities

Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services. This order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation. Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership https://openai.com/index/cerebras-partnership/ with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference. Scope: Enterprise business processes and systems across BIS-supported functions Role Overview We are looking for a Staff Business Systems Analyst who can connect business strategy, process design, enterprise systems, and technology delivery across the functions supported by Business Intelligence & Systems (BIS). This role serves as a senior functional partner to business teams and translates complex needs into clear business cases, process designs, functional specifications, and sprint-ready work. The role partners closely with functional leaders, BIS Architecture, Engineering, Data, Production Support, and external vendors to deliver scalable, well-controlled, and supportable business capabilities. Key Responsibilities • Partner with the functional leaders to shape executive roadmaps, business cases, intake, prioritization, and measurable business outcomes. • Lead discovery, current-state and future-state process mapping, root-cause analysis, and gap assessment across Finance, Supply Chain and Distribution Center Operations, People and Legal, and emerging business areas as needed. • Translate business needs into functional requirements, process and data flows, user stories, acceptance criteria, product specifications, and sprint-ready backlog items. • Develop functional depth in the applications and processes within assigned domains, including ERP and other enterprise platforms, integrations, reporting, controls, and downstream data dependencies. • Facilitate cross-functional design sessions with Technical Architecture and Engineering, evaluate solution tradeoffs, drive decisions, and ensure designs align with enterprise standards, integration strategy, and long-term scalability. • Maintain requirements traceability and lead functional validation, user acceptance testing, defect triage, release readiness, training, and adoption activities. • Embed compliance, segregation-of-duties, auditability, security, data quality, and operational controls into process and system designs, particularly in a public-company environment. • Analyze production issues as needed and business-process KPIs, define durable improvements, and coordinate clear handoffs to Engineering and Production Support. • Lead or support vendor evaluations and contribute functional leadership throughout solution selection, implementation, and post-launch stabilization. • Identify practical opportunities for workflow automation and AI-enabled capabilities while maintaining appropriate controls, transparency, and business ownership. • Raise the quality of business analysis across BIS by establishing reusable standards, coaching peers, and modeling structured, outcome-oriented problem solving across multiple domains. Background We're Looking For • Proven experience in a senior Business Systems Analyst, Business Process, Product, Program, or comparable enterprise-systems role. • Demonstrated success leading end-to-end business transformations across process, technology, data, controls, and change adoption. • Strong functional depth in one or more enterprise domains such as Finance, Supply Chain and Distribution Center Operations, People, Legal, or other corporate functions, with the ability to learn additional domains quickly. • Strong hands-on experience with enterprise applications such as ERP and adjacent business platforms; experience with integrations, analytics, reporting, and workflow automation is highly valued. • Strong command of business-analysis practices, including process modeling, requirements elicitation, functional specifications, user stories, acceptance criteria, UAT, and release readiness. • Technical fluency sufficient to work effectively with architects, engineers, integration teams, data teams, and vendors; an engineering or technical background is a plus. • Experience operating in public-company environments with SOX, compliance, controls, governance, and audit requirements. • Track record of influencing senior stakeholders, resolving ambiguity, driving decisions without formal authority, and building structure in a fast-scaling environment. • Ability to maintain a hybrid presence in the Bay Area. Core Strengths • Enterprise systems and process thinker who can connect strategy, operating models, controls, data, and technology. • Structured analyst who can turn ambiguous problems into clear decisions and executable work. • Excellent facilitator and stakeholder manager who communicates across business and technology audiences, builds alignment, and constructively challenges assumptions. • Detail-oriented operator who balances delivery speed with scalability, controls, and long-term maintainability. • Self-directed learner who adopts new technologies quickly and helps others raise their capability. Success in This Role Looks Like • Clear, prioritized business-systems roadmaps and backlogs aligned with enterprise strategy, functional outcomes, and BIS capacity. • High-quality, sprint-ready requirements that reduce rework and enable predictable delivery across Architecture and Engineering. • Simpler, better-controlled processes with measurable gains in efficiency, data quality, automation, and user experience. • Strong system adoption, sustained business ownership, and reliable applications with fewer recurring production issues. • Trusted partnership among business functions, BIS, vendors, and other stakeholders, supported by reusable analysis and process standards.
