Etched designs and manufactures custom silicon for AI workloads, built on Rust, C/C++, Verilog, and in-house ASIC tooling. The hiring profile is heavily skewed toward interns and senior engineers (95 of 126 roles), with manufacturing and ops teams ramping alongside a 67-person intake in the last 30 days — a pattern typical of hardware companies transitioning from design to volume production. Active projects span silicon bring-up, chip simulation, and manufacturing optimization, while internal friction points around iteration speed and production scaling suggest they're navigating the engineering-to-manufacturing boundary.
