Finance Systems Architect

Etched • San Jose, CA

13d • Onsite

About The Position

Etched is building AI chips that are hard-coded for individual model architectures. Our first product (Sohu) only supports transformers, but has an order of magnitude more throughput and lower 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.
As Etched scales from R&D into global manufacturing and deployment, the complexity of our financial and operational systems is increasing rapidly. We are hiring a hands-on engineer to own and evolve the technical backbone of our financial systems. Starting with ERP and expanding into data infrastructure that connects finance with manufacturing, logistics, and operations, this is a critical role that will enable Etched to scale.
You will be the primary technical owner of our ERP and financial data flows, responsible for architecture, implementation, and long-term scalability. In the short term, this role is heavily ERP-focused; over time, it expands into broader data engineering and infrastructure ownership.
This is not a consulting or governance role. You will own these systems end to end—designing them, building them, and ensuring scalability.
