Finance Operations

Etched is building hardware for frontier intelligence. We co-design chips, racks, software, and manufacturing to deliver best-in-class throughput and latency across both prefill and decode workloads. Our first products are heavily focused on inference. 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. Finance Operations is the team that keeps the rails of Etched's finance machine running as the company scales -- the policies, processes, systems, and reporting that let everyone spend, buy, pay, and see the numbers cleanly and fast. Right now that work outpaces the people doing it. You'll join as one of the first members of our Finance Operations team, partnering directly with our Finance Operations Lead to build the systems, processes, and capabilities that power the company. This is a true generalist role, with exposure to nearly every operational function in Finance and the opportunity to grow alongside the business.
