About The Position

Efficient Computer is seeking a Technical Content Writer with an engineering background who wants to focus on writing and explaining how technology works. The writer will help engineers, product managers, and technology leaders understand how Efficient Computer’s processor architecture could enable product features, more on-device processing, or longer battery life. The role translates customer applications, benchmarks, and reference designs into useful content for people evaluating the technology, while also involving hands-on work with evaluation hardware, the effcc Compiler, and measurement tools. Published results should include enough detail to be reproduced and verified.

The writer will collaborate with product, applications, and engineering teams to develop and produce technical and business-facing content across written, visual, and presentation formats. This includes explaining the Fabric architecture, compiler behavior, workloads, application design, and use cases in autonomy, critical infrastructure observability, space and defense, and wearables. The role also supports sales and field teams, webinars, conference talks, workshops, and partner briefings.

The position includes bringing up evaluation hardware, building and porting applications, measuring energy use and performance, analyzing data, creating figures, reviewing technical accuracy with engineers, and developing small demos and reference projects. The writer will monitor content performance and update materials as the product, toolchain, and positioning evolve. Efficient Computer emphasizes useful, reliable content grounded in reproducible measurements and transparent testing conditions. The role offers a stated base salary range of $120,000–$180,000, a 10% annual bonus, meaningful equity, and comprehensive benefits; final compensation depends on experience, level, and location.

Requirements

• A degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or computer science, or equivalent professional experience.
• At least three years of experience in semiconductors, embedded systems, or processor and compiler tools, in engineering, marketing, or a combination of the two.
• Examples of writing for a technical audience, such as blog posts, application notes, white papers, documentation, or conference papers.
• Fluency in C or C++, with the ability to work through an unfamiliar codebase, get it building, and make changes independently.
• Experience working with development hardware, including bringing up an evaluation board, connecting a sensor, reading a serial console, and debugging a toolchain or unexpected measurement.
• Working knowledge of Python or a similar language for analyzing data, plotting results, and building small internal tools.
• Ability to discuss an engineer’s work, understand its details, and explain why it matters to a customer.
• Clear writing and willingness to edit your own work.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with low-power or battery-powered system design, energy measurement, or power profiling tools.
• Knowledge of compilers, instruction set architectures, or dataflow and spatial architectures.
• Work with drones and autonomy, industrial monitoring, space and defense, or wearable devices.
• Experience with embedded machine learning, digital signal processing, or real-time control.
• HTML, CSS, and JavaScript skills for interactive demos and technical web content.
• Experience creating figures, diagrams, and data visualizations that explain technical results.
• Experience speaking at conferences, leading workshops, or building an audience for your work.

Responsibilities

• Work with product, applications, and engineering teams to identify target audiences, their questions, and content needs.
• Turn customer work, benchmarks, and reference designs into clear examples of what products can do with the Electron E1.
• Write technical blog posts, application notes, white papers, and benchmark reports about the Fabric architecture, compiler behavior, workloads, and application design.
• Produce developer and industry newsletters.
• Tailor explanations for engineers evaluating the toolchain, product managers considering features, and executives making investment decisions.
• Write website and solution pages for autonomy, critical infrastructure observability, space and defense, and wearables.
• Script product walkthroughs, demo videos, and short technical explainers, including on-screen content and explanations of hardware behavior.
• Develop technical stories and content for sales presentations, conference talks, and partner briefings, using editable, easy-to-follow slides.
• Bring up evaluation hardware, port and build applications with the effcc Compiler, and set up instrumentation for measurements.
• Measure energy use and performance independently and with the applications team, analyze data, and create explanatory figures.
• Review content with the engineers responsible for the work to verify accuracy before publication.
• Build small demos, sample applications, and reference projects that developers can clone and run.
• Ensure every published number can be traced to the workload and hardware used for measurement.
• Create solution briefs, competitive one-pagers, demo scripts, and trade show content for sales and field teams.
• Run technical webinars and support conference talks and workshops.
• Follow other approaches to energy-efficient computing and explain how Efficient Computer’s technology fits and compares.
• Track traffic, search rankings, engagement, and qualified inbound interest, and use findings to plan future content.
• Update published content as the product, toolchain, and positioning evolve.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary, generally ranging from $120,000 to $180,000.
• 10% annual bonus.
