etched

Etched builds custom chips, racks, software, and manufacturing methods designed specifically for frontier AI inference. The company serves AI companies, cloud providers, and hyperscalers by developing hardware that runs models—such as many-trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts and agentic workloads—with high throughput, low latency, and improved power efficiency. Its technological approach includes Low Voltage Inference and Cluster Scale Memory to address memory and thermal bottlenecks found in standard processors.

Open roles at Etched indicate that the company is building specialized engineering teams focused on agent research, hardware engineering, and RTL design. The current open positions include roles such as MTS in Agent Research, Applied Engineer in Hardware, and an RTL Intern. These positions are based out of the company's San Jose, California office, where it maintains a data center, test house, and prototyping lab to support vertically integrated hardware development.
