Etched is building the first transformer-specific AI chip. By trading flexibility for performance, one Etched server has >20x more throughput (tokens per second) than an NVIDIA 8xH100 GPU. We’ve raised >$125M and are a 50-person team in Cupertino, CA.

From discussing recent ML papers with customers to demo’ing performance models for how our chip will run their workloads, you will be the technical lead with customers as we ramp to $100M in pre-orders. You’ll work closely with Robert to execute on a wide variety of operational projects.
