Job description

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. 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.

The roles

Our chip simulation and tooling role will co-design, develop, and test simulations of our custom hardware and tools that engineers use to analyze those systems. You will be working at the cutting edge of hardware innovation, closely coordinating with both software and hardware teams across their whole development path. We are looking for Fall '26, Spring '27, and Summer '27 interns.

  • Progress towards a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.

  • Proficiency in C/C++ or Rust

  • Strong fundamentals in data structures and algorithms

  • Strong understanding of low-level software engineering

  • Strong understanding of hardware/software co-design

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Strong candidates may also have (Nice to have qualifications)

  • Experience with Linux internals, kernel development, or driver debugging

  • Experience with hardware diagnostics or interpreting hardware logs

  • Exposure to server virtualization or CI/CD pipelines

  • Experience with Rust or embedded development

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every qualification.

Program details

  • 12-week paid internship

  • Generous housing support for those relocating

  • Daily lunch and dinner in our office

  • Based at our office in San Jose, CA

  • Direct mentorship from industry leaders and world-class engineers

  • Opportunity to work on one of the most important problems of our time

How we’re different

Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson. We are the first inference-focused frontier AI system, betting early on transformer and transformer-like architectures and on increasing model sizes. Our addressable market is the entirety of inference, unlike many of our competitors.


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 and work across disciplines as needed.
