Applications Engineer
Description For Applications Engineer
Efficient Computer is at the forefront of energy-efficient computing, developing revolutionary processor technology that consumes 100x less energy than current ultra-low-power processors. This breakthrough enables continuous AI/ML operation on a single AA battery for 5-10 years, perfect for IoT applications. As an Applications Engineer, you'll be instrumental in designing and implementing applications for their innovative "Fabric" processor. This role offers a unique opportunity to work with cutting-edge hardware technology while making an immediate impact in embedded applications development. The position involves close collaboration with the compiler team, debugging complex systems, and optimizing applications for extreme energy efficiency. With a competitive salary range of $150,000-$180,000, plus equity and comprehensive benefits, this role is perfect for an experienced embedded systems engineer who wants to shape the future of energy-efficient computing. The company culture emphasizes impact over hierarchy, offering high trust and autonomy to its team members. Located in either San Jose, CA or Pittsburgh, PA, you'll be part of a dynamic team pushing the boundaries of what's possible in computer processor technology.
