Engineering Jobs at Etched

Etched designs and builds AI hardware, including chips, racks, and software, for running frontier AI models. Its first product, Sohu, is an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) hard-coded for transformer model architectures, offering higher throughput and lower latency than an NVIDIA B200 GPU. The company targets inference workloads such as many-trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts models, long-context processing, and agentic workloads.

Etched is also hiring in finance and legal (2), data and AI (1), hardware and science (1) and operations (1).

Its roles are in Cupertino, CA, US (25).

You own whole parts of the product rather than one service inside a large system. Expect to write the code, deploy it, and get paged when it breaks. Reviews are quick and the codebase is small, so a decision made on Tuesday can ship on Thursday.
