About VSORA

VSORA is a French fabless semiconductor company delivering ultra-high-performance AI inference solutions for both data centers and edge deployments. Our proprietary architecture achieves exceptional implementation efficiency, ultra-low latency, and minimal power draw - dramatically cutting inference costs across any workload. Fully programmable and agnostic to both algorithms and host processors, our chips serve as versatile companion platforms.

A rich instruction set lets them seamlessly handle pure AI, pure DSP, or any hybrid of the two, all without burdening developers with extra complexity. To streamline development and shorten time-to-market, VSORA embraces industry standards: our toolchain is built on LLVM and supports common frameworks like ONNX and PyTorch, minimizing integration effort and customer cost.

Based in the outskirts of Paris (Headquarted in Meudon - France), the company was founded in 2015 by a team of highly qualified and accomplished AI/DSP experts and entrepreneurs (with one subsidiary in the US and rep offices around the world), validated its core technology end of 2025 and is about to initiate its commercial ramp up with a view to reach €500m+ in the next 2 years.

About the role

As our company enters a decisive phase of growth — doubling in headcount and expanding its commercial footprint — we are looking for a Deputy Chief of Staff to sit at the heart of the organization and amplify the CEO's impact.

This is a high-exposure, high-responsibility role that combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution.

This role is ideal for a sharp, intellectually curious profile who thrives in fast-paced environments, is comfortable navigating ambiguity, and wants to build a deep understanding of how a deep-tech company scales. We see this role as a point of entry in the organization before evolving towards a leadership position based on the person’s skills & preferences.
