ByteDance, Baidu, Alibaba Cloud and MiniMax are among the firms now actively recruiting fresh talent in the US
The overseas hiring spree underscores these “big tech” firms’ growing ambitions to build up their skilled workforce in AI systems development and semiconductor design amid increased competition in their home market.
Baidu, meanwhile, had its Sunnyvale, California-based operation post 10 job vacancies focused exclusively on semiconductor design, with roles for central processing unit development, system-on-a-chip architecture and design verification.
That focus signalled Baidu’s intent to achieve greater tech hardware self-reliance amid increased demand for high-end AI chips in global supply chains.
