About The Position

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.

Etched is scaling faster than any other company in the AI hardware space. To match that pace, our internal operations and decision-making systems need to be as innovative as our chips. We’re looking for a Business Automation Engineer to design and build the automation infrastructure that unifies our business intelligence, streamlines cross-functional workflows, and powers data-driven decision-making across GTM, talent, legal, and production operations.

This is a hands-on, full-stack engineering role with a business lens. You’ll scope problems directly with stakeholders, architect and ship automation systems end-to-end, and own adoption so your work has immediate impact.

Requirements

• Have strong full-stack development skills and experience shipping end-to-end business applications with clean, maintainable code.
• Are comfortable integrating disparate systems and designing resilient, low-maintenance automations that scale with growth.
• Think like a business operator: you understand how GTM, production, talent, and legal workflows intersect with company strategy and scope projects for maximum leverage.
• Thrive under pressure and can deliver high-impact systems quickly without sacrificing quality.
• Operate with high EQ and low ego: you partner effectively across functions, incorporate feedback, and elevate others’ workflows.
• Bring intensity and persistence: you treat blockers as puzzles to solve and dive deep into any system or dataset to find leverage.

Responsibilities

• Build Full-Stack Automation Systems: Design, develop, and deploy robust internal applications and integrations across front-end, back-end, and data pipelines to eliminate manual workflows.
• Unify Business Intelligence: Create a single source of truth by integrating metrics from GTM, production, talent, and legal ops into role-specific dashboards with ≤2-click access.
• Automate Cross-Functional Workflows: Implement alerting and reporting systems for recruiter pipelines, offer risks, GTM performance, contract tracking, and production forecasting.
• Integrate Disparate Systems: Connect tools and data sources (Slack, CRM, HRIS, manufacturing tools, etc.) via APIs and middleware to ensure seamless information flow and real-time visibility.
• Deliver Under Pressure: Prioritize aggressively and ship complete, stable systems on fast timelines without sacrificing maintainability.

Benefits

• Full medical, dental, and vision packages with generous premium coverage
• Housing subsidy of $2,000/month for those living within walking distance of the office
• Daily lunch and dinner in our office
• Relocation support for those moving to San Jose (Santana Row)
