The posting

Efficient Computer is rethinking computing from the ground up to solve one of AI's biggest challenges: energy. Our Fabric architecture delivers a 10–100x improvement in energy efficiency for general-purpose computation, including AI, while supporting familiar programming languages and software frameworks—unlocking new possibilities for autonomous machines, intelligent infrastructure, wearables, and space systems. With our first processor, Electron E1, now shipping in volume and more than $97 million in Series B financing recently announced, we're accelerating customer deployments and scaling our architecture to data center performance. Join us to build the hardware and software that bring intelligence wherever it's needed and help shape the next generation of computing.

We are seeking a Field Application Engineer to join our growing Sales Support team. Efficient's Field Application Engineers are the technical bridge between our customers and our engineering team, guiding customers from first evaluation through design-in and production. This position is a unique opportunity to shape how a new processor architecture is adopted in the market as part of a highly interdisciplinary team, helping to demonstrate the value of Efficient's breakthrough technology. You'll work directly with customers and help write the playbook: building reference designs, demos and application notes, and feeding what you hear from customers straight back to our Product and Engineering teams.

If you have experience as a Field Application Engineer who wants to be part of an intensely skilled team and wants to have an immediate impact on the growth of our Sales organization, we want to talk with you!

  • Respond quickly and accurately to technical inquiries, RFQs and customer escalations, coordinating with internal engineering as needed
  • Author reference designs, application notes and training materials for customers and channel partners
  • Serve as the voice of the customer, feeding requirements and competitive insights back to Product and Engineering
  • Build and maintain strong technical relationships with key customer engineering teams

  • Minimum 4 years of embedded software development experience with an understanding of embedded hardware including digital and analog circuits.

  • Experience at a semiconductor company or MCU vendor supporting design-wins
  • Background in target markets such as industrial IoT, wearables, smart home, medical or defense
  • Willingness to travel to customer sites, up to 25% of time.

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
  • Ability to take ownership of assigned tasks and work with minimal supervision.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
