About the role

  • In this role, you will focus on validating the functionality of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and ensuring adequate power margins across all interfaces.
  • How we're different: Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson.
  • We do not have boundaries between engineering and research, and we expect all of our technical staff to contribute to both as needed.

Responsibilities

  • Etched is building AI chips that are hard-coded for individual model architectures.
  • Our first product (Sohu) only supports transformers, but has an order of magnitude more throughput and lower latency than a B200.
  • You will play a critical role in collecting and analyzing data in the lab to validate hardware performance, support post-silicon characterization, and ensure robust operation across multiple subsystems, including PCIe and I2C.
  • Relocation support for those moving to Cupertino

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • Proven experience in hardware validation, lab testing, and PCB-level debugging
  • Strong understanding of power and signal integrity principles, including measurement and analysis techniques
  • Familiarity with PCI-E, I2C, and other relevant hardware interfaces and protocols
  • Experience with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and power supplies
  • Hands-on experience in debugging hardware issues and conducting root cause analysis
  • Knowledge of power sequencing and microcontroller (uC) systems

Skills

  • Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson.

Benefits

  • Full medical, dental, and vision packages, with 100% of premium covered, 90% for dependents
