About this role

Kernel Driver Software Engineer San Jose, CA, United States 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. Key Responsibilities - Design, develop, and maintain kernel-mode drivers ensuring high reliability, informative debug, and optimal performance. - Analyze and optimize driver performance for demanding AI workloads, focusing on minimizing latency and maximizing throughput. - Collaborate closely with hardware engineers throughout the ASIC design process.. - Implement driver support for device virtualization technologies, including SR-IOV, VFIO, and para-virtualization. - Implement efficient memory management strategies considering kernel memory mapping, page tables configuration, NUMA awareness for device data caching, and IOMMU configuration. - Build kernel drivers fundamentally designed to support and maintain security across host processes, physical memory spaces, and device attestation. - Diagnose and resolve complex driver-related issues, using common kernel debugging tools and techniques (ftrace, dmesg, etc.) to identify and fix bugs. - Design and implement synchronization mechanisms to handle concurrent access to multiple accelerators. - Develop and execute comprehensive test plans to validate driver functionality, stability, and performance in manufacturing and in general production environments. - Collaborate with software
