Performance Modeling Engineer

Etched was founded on the belief that new hardware will be needed to run human- and superhuman-level artificial intelligence. Our ASIC systems deliver orders of magnitude higher performance than conventional AI chips. Etched is actively developing Sohu , an ASIC exclusively for transformers, which will enable products that would be impossible with GPUs, like real-time video generation models and extremely deep chain-of-thought reasoning. And we're bringing this technology to market in months, not years. Sohu is hard-coded for individual model architectures and only supports transformers, but has an order of magnitude more throughput and lower latency than a B200.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Develop and own SoC functional models from architecture to deployment, including integration with infrastructure, thorough testing, and debugging.
• Collaborate closely with architecture, RTL design, design verification, emulation, and software teams to ensure alignment and performance.
• Innovate tooling and infrastructure to enhance usability and effectiveness for internal and external partners.
• Optimize model and infrastructure performance, ensuring scalability for real-world AI workloads.
• Create software that is well-documented, maintainable, and reusable , ensuring longevity and ease of future development.
• Simulate performance of existing and upcoming state-of-the-art (SOTA) Transformer models on our ASIC architecture vs other alternatives (GPUs, TPUs etc)
