What We Do

Normal is rethinking semiconductors from the ground up.

The infrastructure powering AI models was never designed with today’s scale, complexity, or energy demands in mind. Today's general-purpose architectures underutilize the physical potential of the hardware itself.

By aligning hardware design with the intrinsic properties of physical systems, we can transform efficiency. We believe that exploring the limits of new and custom silicon, including those which optimize their own physics, requires the help of AI, better EDA software, and ultimately the realization of a virtuous cycle of self-improving AI hardware.

We deliver our software and hardware with the largest semiconductor design and manufacturing institutions, a responsibility which entails individual ownership and deep partnership. We are a diverse, lean team of the world's best engineers, scientists, and operators, with offices in New York City, San Francisco, London, and Copenhagen.

Why Work With Us

We understand that our technology is only as powerful as the people behind it. Every employee drives significant impact within our products, often working directly with customers and embedding across our tightly-knit team. Our team members are driven by curiosity and passion for solving some of the most challenging problems in the world of atoms.
