Role
Who you are
- 7-10 years of experience in public relations, media relations, or corporate communications—ideally in semiconductors, AI, cloud infrastructure, or enterprise technology
- Proven experience managing external PR agencies and holding them accountable for results
- Strong, existing relationships with technology reporters at major business and trade publications
- Excellent writing and editing skills with ability to draft a press release, a CEO LinkedIn post, and an interview prep doc all in the same morning
- Experience supporting C-suite executives with communications materials and media preparation
- Comfort working in a fast-paced startup environment where priorities shift quickly and resourcefulness matters more than process
- Strong news judgment, i.e., you know what's a story, what's not, and how to frame the difference
- Familiarity with AI, semiconductor, or data center markets is strongly preferred
What the job involves
- The senior manager of public relations is the first dedicated PR hire at d-Matrix, joining a corporate communications function that reports directly to the CEO.

- This is a rare opportunity to join a company at the exact moment its narrative is breaking through with major media outlets, including CNBC, Reuters, and Bloomberg, as well as major trade press already covering the story
- This is a hands-on role. You'll be pitching reporters, writing press releases, prepping the CEO for interviews, and managing agency output, all while helping build the PR function to its full potential. If you want to be the person who shapes how the world discovers a category-defining AI infrastructure company, this is the job

- Arrange spokesperson opportunities, including deskside briefings, conference 1:1 interviews, media tours, podcast appearances, and analyst days
- Monitor coverage, track sentiment, and report on media impact
- Agency Management
- Manage day-to-day relationships with Aircover Communications, d-Matrix's external PR agency
- Set priorities, review agency deliverables, and ensure agency output aligns with corporate messaging and brand voice
- Collaborate with the VP on agency strategy, scope, and performance evaluation
- Executive Communications Support
- Support the VP in preparing CEO and executive communications: interview prep documents, briefing materials, talking points, and speech drafts
- Help develop and maintain messaging frameworks aligned with the company’s narrative
- Draft and edit CEO social media posts for LinkedIn in coordination with the VP
- Industry Analyst & Influencer Relations (Scaling Over Time)
- Begin building relationships with key industry analysts covering AI infrastructure and semiconductors
- Identify and engage with targeted industry influencers and creators, equipping them with content and access to d-Matrix spokespeople
- Over time, develop and manage contractual arrangements with analysts and influencers for third-party content, market intelligence, and positioning guidance
- Awards & Recognition
- Identify and manage award submissions across industry programs (TIME Best Inventions, Fast Company Next Big Things, GSA Startup to Watch, AI Breakthrough Awards, etc.)
- Track deadlines, draft applications, and coordinate with cross-functional teams for supporting materials
Our take
d-Matrix is redesigning how AI gets done, tackling the limit f traditional chips with its Corsair platform. Using digital in-memory computing and a chiplet-based design, it delivers fast, power-efficient AI interface that's built for today's data-heavy models, without the energy overload.
Recently, the company has been making some serious moves. Its secured substantial funding, with backing from Microsoft, and partnering with HTEC to boost its software capabilities. With Corsair already showing serious speed gains over GPUs like Nvidia's H100, d-Matrix is proving it can deliver real-world performance at scale.
But instead of competing head-on with GPU giants, d-Matrix is focusing on where AI meets people. And with AI growing fast, especially for interactive and generative applications, d-Matrix is building the hardware that helps AI keep up with this demand.
