Etched was founded on the belief that new hardware will be needed to run human- and superhuman-level artificial intelligence. Our ASIC systems deliver orders of magnitude higher performance than conventional AI chips. Etched is actively developing Sohu, an ASIC exclusively for transformers, which will enable products that would be impossible with GPUs, like real-time video generation models and extremely deep chain-of-thought reasoning. And we're bringing this technology to market in months, not years. Sohu is hard-coded for individual model architectures and only supports transformers, but has an order of magnitude more throughput and lower latency than a B200. 

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Co-Develop cutting-edge software optimized across hardware and software driving the full potential of very large transformer models.
• Solve challenging problems across the full stack, from low-level drivers and APIs to high-level applications and frameworks.
• Contribute to the development of AI solutions that will revolutionize industries like natural language processing, chain of reasoning automation, generative media.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
• 3 years of experience in software development, and with data structures/algorithms.
• 3 years of experience developing and testing software on launching products.
• 3 years of experience with firmware design, implementation, and troubleshooting.
• 3 years of experience with embedded architectures, IO technologies (I2C, SPI, PCIe, DRAM etc.), as well as concepts like scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency.

Preferred qualifications:

• Master’s degree Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• Experience resolving customer-related issues.
• Experience solving ambiguous problems.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
