Efficient Computer builds the world's most energy-efficient general-purpose AI chips, delivering up to 100× better efficiency than low-power CPUs. Backed by USV.
About the role
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. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 7+ years in information security, including time as the founding or sole security owner at a company—or as the person who built a program that didn’t exist before you arrived
- Genuine hands-on depth. You can configure the control, not just specify it, including on developer workstations and build infrastructure that don’t look like a standard corporate fleet
- Practical experience securing source code and developer infrastructure: source control platforms, CI/CD, secrets management, and cloud infrastructure
- Working knowledge of NIST SP 800-171, CMMC, or a comparable federal framework—ideally having taken a company through an assessment—and the judgment to know what matters and what’s ceremony
- Enough IT operations depth to run it well on your own for a while: MDM, identity providers and SSO, automated user lifecycle management, and multi-site networking
- Comfort with identity and access architecture: SSO, MFA, least privilege, and access reviews at a pace that doesn’t exhaust people
More about this role
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.
Efficient Computer is looking for its first dedicated security leader. You’ll decide what good security looks like here, and then build it. That means owning how we protect our intellectual property, how we meet the security standards our defense and government customers require, how we handle export-controlled technology, and how our engineering environment is designed and hardened.
At the start, you’ll be a team...
