About Etched

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.

You'll work directly with the hardware, platform, and software teams to bring our systems online faster, keep them running harder, and push the limits of what dense, high-power AI inference design and manufacturing infrastructure can do.

This is not a traditional data center operations role. We expect you to treat data center engineering with the same rigor and craftsmanship we apply to our chip de
