Job Description:
About Etched Etched is building the world’s first AI inference
system purpose-built for transformers - delivering over 10x higher
performance and dramatically lower cost and latency than a B200.
With Etched ASICs, you can build products that would be impossible
with GPUs, like real-time video generation models and extremely
deep & parallel chain-of-thought reasoning agents. Backed by
hundreds of millions from top-tier investors and staffed by leading
engineers, Etched is redefining the infrastructure layer for the
fastest growing industry in history. Job Summary Our fall
electrical engineering interns will work on both hands-on product
design and the development of design and validation infrastructure
to design boards that will support bleeding edge systems and
silicon. Our Platform Team is building the full-stack system that
supports Etched Silicon from PCB to Rack. . We are seeking interns
to work across all aspects of mechanical and electrical engineering
to design the future of high power ASIC systems. You may be a good
fit if you have Progress towards a Bachelor’s or Master’s in
Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
Experience building real mechanical systems, boards, or other
hands-on projects. Knowledge of board design cycle, high-speed
interconnects, power delivery, and system integration. We encourage

Opportunity to work on one of the most important problems of our
time For any questions, contact internships@etched.com How we’re
different Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson . We think most of
the progress in the AI field has come from using more FLOPs to
train and run models, and the best way to get more FLOPs is to
build model-specific hardware. Larger and larger training runs
encourage companies to consolidate around fewer model
architectures, which creates a market for single-model ASICs. We
are a fully in-person team in San Jose (Santana Row), and greatly
value engineering skills. We do not have boundaries between
engineering and research, and we expect all of our technical staff
to contribute to both as needed.
