Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Design and implement complete systems featuring energy-efficient processors, including PCB designs and customer evaluation development kits. Develop accompanying system software, boot ROMs, and a customer-facing SDK to showcase processor capabilities.
Requires over 8 years of experience in PCB design and embedded software development, with proficiency in C/C++. Candidates must have deep knowledge of embedded platforms and experience debugging new silicon and hardware prototypes.
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!
We offer a competitive salary for this role, generally ranging from $160,000 to $210,000, along with meaningful equity and comprehensive benefits. The final compensation package will be based on your experience and location, with some flexibility to ensure we align with the right candidate.
Efficient offers a competitive compensation and benefits package, including 401K match, company-paid benefits, equity program, paid parental leave, and flexibility. We are committed to personal and professional development and strive to grow together as people and as a company.
The most energy-efficient general purpose processors ever made.
Efficient is building the world’s most energy-efficient general-purpose processor by combining ultra-efficient hardware with an intuitive, developer-friendly compiler and software stack that unlocks 10–100× efficiency gains across every part of an application, including AI. Efficient was founded in 2022 to commercialize a breakthrough in efficient computation developed over nearly a decade by a team of world-leading computer architects. Efficient's world-class team has produced two silicon implementations of the Fabric architecture: the Electron E0, a prototype system-on-chip, and the Electron E1, the first silicon product. With Efficient's cutting-edge effcc Compiler and software stack, the Electron E1 processor has been delivered to customers as of mid-2025, ramping to large-scale volume and distribution in 2026. Efficient already has customer traction in areas such as physical AI for infrastructure and automation, space and defense, automotive, and consumer products. Efficient's technology scales from tiny “beyond the edge” devices to large-scale robotics, autonomy, edge cloud, and datacenter applications—enabling widespread adoption across multiple industries and positioning Efficient as the solution to the energy problem across all of computing.
