About Etched

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.

We are an in-person team in San Jose, CA, and are on-site 5 days a week.

The Role

As we scale our company, we will face a handful of strategic and finance operational challenges. From deciding pricing, SKUs, and unit economics to accounting, financing strategies, and cash flow and supply chain management, we are looking for a Finance intern to tackle strategic financial challenges and execute on our day-to-day finance operations.

You will work closely with the executive team to maintain our finance plan, assist with purchase orders and accounts payable, and learn about key strategic issues across the organization, from supply chain to product. You’ll get hands‑on experience across FP&A, accounting operations, vendor payments, and pricing/unit economics modeling.

You may be a good fit if you:

• Have previous internship experience in consulting, banking, or early startup environments
• Understand cash flow management, bank reconciliation, and bookkeeping
• Track record of excellent project management and data analysis skills
• Are willing to do a broad set of finance, accounting, and operations work
• Comfort with Excel/Sheets or basic financial modeling

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every qualification.

Strong candidates may also have experience with:

• Technical Curiosity: experience, education, or interest in computer science, electrical engineering, artificial Intelligence, or a related field.
• Industry interest: Deep curiosity about the AI ecosystem, including emerging trends, cutting‑edge technologies, and industry innovations.
• Startup Acumen: Interest in startup finance (equity, cap tables, fundraising)

Program Details:

• 12-week paid internship (June - August 2026)
• Generous housing support for those relocating
• Daily lunch and dinner in our office
• Based at our office in San Jose, CA
• Direct mentorship from industry leaders and world‑class engineers
• Opportunity to work on one of the most important problems of our time

How we’re different

Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson. We think most of the progress in the AI field has come from using more FLOPs to train and run models, and the best way to get more FLOPs is to build model‑specific hardware. Larger and larger training runs encourage companies to consolidate around fewer model architectures, which creates a market for single‑model ASICs.

We are a fully in‑person team in West San Jose, and greatly value engineering skills. We do not have boundaries between engineering and research, and we expect all of our technical staff to contribute to both as needed.

Etched is an equal opportunity employer. We value diversity and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
