BRN Discussion Ongoing

Bravo

If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
I'd like to see the best person for the job. Genitalia is irrelevant...

Ahhh, the old myth of merit...💤

Sure pal. Having worked in sales and sales management for 30 years and having employed and trained numerous reps in that time, my opinion is that the right female in a largely male dominated field can be exceedingly effective. But that's just my lived experience.
You are of course entitled to your own opinion.

Maybe Chris' role has been made redundant....just another thought.

Went checking if could see it advertised and would suspect if normal notice period given, the replacement search would be on, unless they are keeping in house and head hunting quietly or not replacing :unsure:

Anyway, I like that we are looking for a Production Mgr though, as that indicates to me something physical and / or IP related required from the sales process starting to be required nearer term, otherwise why required.

Key word is 'right', not 'female'.

Hi IloveLamp, I just posted an article with Tata and Renesas. The overlap is there however not sure how the big boy of tech NVIDIA will be using any IP of Brainchip's and until an announcement is made, all we can do is research any connection here 🤔
I would imagine our ip would flow through to nvidia via megachips based on my previous posts

Pure speculation of course but.....but..

I'm not sure about the US but in Australia security clearances are required for ridiculous positions. Overclassification is abundant in the job market.

For instance, I needed an NV1 clearance for the army. Understandable. I also had to get an NV1 clearance for a low level customer service role for a data centre. There was no chance I was ever getting my hands on classified documents/info in that position.

So it really could be required for work with a very broad range of companies or government agencies.
