Etched, a company based in San Jose, is seeking a skilled Emulation Engineer to join their team. Etched is at the forefront of developing AI chips that are specifically designed for individual model architectures, with their first product, Sohu, boasting an impressive order of magnitude more throughput and lower latency than a B200. This innovative technology has the potential to enable the creation of products that would be impossible to achieve with traditional GPUs, such as real-time video generation models and extremely deep and parallel chain-of-thought reasoning agents.
As an Emulation Engineer at Etched, the successful candidate will be responsible for overseeing the bring-up of System-on-Chip (SoC) on emulation platforms, diagnosing and resolving any issues that may arise during SoC or processor tests. Additionally, the Emulation Engineer will develop and maintain automated build and regression flows to accelerate pre-silicon validation and software development. The role will also involve providing support across emulation environments using advanced techniques, including C/C++ DPI transactors, coverage analysis, and in-circuit emulation for high-speed protocols.
The ideal candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate closely with various teams, including Design, DV, Silicon Validation, Performance, and Software, as well as partner with leading emulation vendors to enhance platform capabilities and resolve complex issues. The Emulation Engineer will also be responsible for developing high-performance infrastructure to capture debugging signals and surface actionable insights for users. Furthermore, the role will involve implementing hybrid emulation environments using custom DPI-based streaming transactors, creating highly configurable chip-to-chip network models using emulation-efficient primitives, and building and maintaining CI pipelines and git-based workflows for emulation build reproducibility and regression tracking.
To be considered for this position, candidates should have hands-on experience with emulation platforms, which is not fully specified in the provided information, but it is implied that relevant experience is necessary. The company offers a unique opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology and collaborate with a talented team. The position is based in San Jose and follows an OnSite work model, providing a chance to work closely with the team and contribute to the development of innovative AI chips. Etched offers a range of benefits, although they are not specified in the provided information, it is clear that the company is committed to supporting the growth and development of its employees.
