Embedded Hardware Engineer ( PCB)

Efficient is developing the world’s most energy-efficient general-purpose computer processor.

Efficient’s patented technology uses 100x less energy than state of the art commercially available ultra-low-power processors and is programmable using standard high-level programming languages and AI/ML frameworks.

This level of efficiency makes perpetual, pervasive intelligence possible: run AI/ML continuously on a AA battery for 5-10 years.

Our platform’s unprecedented level of efficiency enables IoT devices to intelligently capture and curate first-party data to drive the next major computing revolution

Efficient’s Embedded Hardware Engineer will design and implement complete systems that feature the world’s most energy-efficient programmable processor.

Your primary role will be to develop PCB designs and accompanying system software to test and showcase our revolutionary processors.

Specifically, you will be tasked with creating bring-up test hardware and customer evaluation development kits (EDKs), and assist with customer hardware reviews.

You will develop the requisite software to operate our bring-up test hardware and EDKs, as well as develop our customer-facing SDK.

Additionally, you will be involved in pre-silicon activities such as validating our processors using RTL simulators and FPGA emulators, and developing secure boot ROMs.

This position is a unique opportunity to develop cutting-edge hardware and software as part of a highly interdisciplinary team, helping to demonstrate the value of Efficient’s breakthrough technology.

If you are an engineer who wants to be part of an intensely skilled team and wants to have an immediate impact building the next generation of energy-efficient embedded applications, this is for you!

• Develop bring-up test hardware and customer EDKs
• Engage with PCBA vendors, and manage relationships
• Perform board bring-up
• Perform pre-silicon validation activities for our processors
• Develop boot ROM and firmware for our processors
• Perform first-silicon bring-up and checkout activities
