New Media, Special Projects

We’re building a small team of multi-disciplinary creatives with the ambition to create the most consequential brand of the 21st century.

Our mission is to run the world’s inference. Your work will define how the wider world understands who we are, what we’re building, and why it matters – all during the most important inflection in the company’s history.

• You’ve created at least one “banger” across mediums (e.g. video, brand design, tweet, manifesto)

• Your brain can’t stop generating ideas

• You have a maniacal attention to detail

• You’re curious

• You’re looking for your magnum opus

• You have extreme agency

• →

  Create a brand that becomes synonymous with AI and its promise

• →

  Translate the founders’ vision into multi-media creative artifacts

• A large X following

• A defined viewpoint on the future of AI

Etched is building hardware for frontier intelligence. We co-design chips, racks, software, and manufacturing to deliver best-in-class throughput and latency across both prefill and decode workloads. Our first products are heavily focused on inference. Backed by hundreds of millions from top-tier investors and staffed by leading engineers, Etched is redefining the infrastructure layer for the fastest growing industry in history.

Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson. We are the first inference-focused frontier AI system, betting early on transformer and transformer-like architectures and on increasing model sizes. Our addressable market is the entirety of inference, unlike many of our competitors.

We are a fully in-person team in San Jose (Santana Row), and greatly value engineering skills. We do not have boundaries between engineering and research, and we expect all of our technical staff to contribute to both and work across disciplines as needed.
