Test Technician
Cooling performance limits high-power computing, semi-conductorfab, cell networks, photonics, power electronics, and most of our digital world. Alloy Enterprises enables customers to break through these constraints with novel complex metal components that dramatically improve heat dissipation in high-performance systems. Alloy’s patented Stack Forging™ process enables complex micro-geometries, resulting in single-piece, leak-tight parts that deliver superior cooling performance, lower pressure drops, and exceptional reliability. Founded in 2020, Alloy is a 45-personhardtechstartup that has raised over $50M in capital and is shipping components tocustomersmanufacturing servers, lasers, semiconductor equipment, and defense systems.
