$150,000.00/yr - $300,000.00/yr We're Building the Next Generation of Chips to Power AI. Join Us.
At Exa, we're building the next NVIDIA. Our novel polymorphic chips are a generation ahead of anything on the market.
We're essentially building the substrate that will power all future knowledge and scientific discovery.
Our XPU chips are state-of-the-art AI compute engines
capable of reconfiguring themselves to optimize the dataflow of each model (training & inference!) to be fast and efficient enough to support
AGI
, and eventually
ASI
, without requiring massive power infrastructure. Through our
novel polymorphic architecture , we're achieving
unprecedented performance gains over current SOTA GPUs
while dramatically reducing energy consumption.
The team consists of exceptional engineers
obsessed
with pushing the boundaries of what's possible in computing and AI,
and we're now seeking our next technical member!
You Are
Ready to go all-in and do the work of your life Willing to be hardcore when pushing technical boundaries A technical powerhouse who loves working across the hardware-software boundary Deeply passionate and obsessed with computing and AI Hungry to build something that actually matters
Your Background (important in bold)
Background in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent field Strong foundation in digital design, RTL, and chip design Experience with semiconductor physical design (PD) and chip tapeout (through research, projects, or industry) Experience with PCB design and bring-up
Huge Plus If
Exposure to (Sci)ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch/TinyGrad/JAX/Lux.jl) Experience with mixed-signal design Autodidactic polymath with a strong mathematical background Someone who doesn't fret when faced with near-impossible technical challenges
The Opportunity
Be one of the first employees shaping a revolutionary technology Work directly with the founding team of exceptional engineers at our San Francisco HQ Own critical decisions that will influence the future of AI compute Grow into a technical leader as we scale Highly competitive compensation + significant equity
This is THE chance to do the work of your life.
The chance to build something that will be remembered.
To go hardcore on a technical moonshot that will actually matter for over 100 to 1,000 years. Seniority level
