We value collaboration, curiosity, and a commitment to solving hard problems. We are growing our team and looking for contributors of all seniorities.
- You are an experienced Physical Design Engineer with 10+ years of ASIC/SoC/CPU experience, ideally focused on high-performance CPUs or similarly complex digital designs.
- You bring deep expertise across RTL-to-GDS implementation and signoff, including timing closure, power optimization, SI, EM/IR, extraction, and physical verification.
- You have built or owned physical design methodology, automation, or CAD flows and are highly skilled in Tcl, Python, Perl, or similar scripting languages.
- You are a technical leader who can influence across teams, mentor engineers, and drive standards across geographically distributed organizations.
- Define and own scalable CPU physical design methodology spanning synthesis, floorplanning, power planning, place and route, CTS, extraction, STA, SI, EM/IR, and physical verification.
- Explore AI/ML-enabled PD tooling, begin synthesis and PnR of CPU partitions, and start developing the new program RM flow.
- Drive automation, constraints, quality metrics, signoff criteria, dashboards, checkers, and debug workflows that improve predictability, turnaround time, and PPA.
- Partner with architecture, RTL, circuit, DFT, CAD, program, data, and EDA vendor teams to enable advanced nodes and productize AI/ML across physical design.
- How to apply AI/ML to physical design for hotspot prediction, congestion forecasting, timing-risk classification, ECO prioritization, IR-drop screening, and flow tuning.
- How to build reliable, explainable, production-ready data infrastructure, including feature collection, validation, and signoff integration.
- How to evaluate AI-enabled EDA capabilities and determine where data-driven optimization delivers measurable value over conventional heuristics.
- How to scale CPU methodology, automation, and AI/ML deployment across advanced-node programs, foundries, teams, and the broader organization.
Compensation for all engineers at Tenstorrent ranges from $100k - $500k including base and variable compensation targets. Experience, skills, education, background and location all impact the actual offer made.
Tenstorrent offers a highly competitive compensation package and benefits, and we are an equal opportunity employer.
This offer of employment is contingent upon the applicant being eligible to access U.S. export-controlled technology. Due to U.S. export laws, including those codified in the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (EAR), the Company is required to ensure compliance with these laws when transferring technology to nationals of certain countries (such as EAR Country Groups D:1, E1, and E2). These requirements apply to persons located in the U.S. and all countries outside the U.S. As the position offered will have direct and/or indirect access to information, systems, or technologies subject to these laws, the offer may be contingent upon your citizenship/permanent residency status or ability to obtain prior license approval from the U.S. Commerce Department or applicable federal agency. If employment is not possible due to U.S. export laws, any offer of employment will be rescinded.
