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.

We're searching for passionate software engineers to join our fast growing team. You'll have the opportunity to:

  • Strong programming skills in C++, Rust, and/or Python

  • Experience with embedded systems, high-performance computing or distributed systems.

  • Deep understanding of computer architecture and operating systems

  • Passion for AI and a desire to make a real-world impact

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.

  • 8 years of experience in software development, and with data structures/algorithms.

  • 5 years of experience testing, and launching software products, and 3 years of experience with software design and architecture.

  • 5 years of experience with firmware design, implementation, and troubleshooting.

  • 5 years of experience with embedded architectures, IO technologies (I2C, SPI, PCIe, DRAM etc.), as well as concepts like scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency.

  • Master’s degree or PhD in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.

What We Offer

~1 min read
  • 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 Taipei, 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.
