As Sr. Director of Applications in the Performance Computing Power division, you will build and lead an organization that turns Renesas silicon into design wins at the world’s most demanding AI and compute customers — owning the technical relationship from first architecture conversation through production ramp, and serving as the voice of the customer inside our NPI process.
