Tenstorrent is leading the industry on cutting-edge AI technology,
revolutionizing performance expectations, ease of use, and cost efficiency. With
AI redefining the computing paradigm, solutions must evolve to unify innovations
in software models, compilers, platforms, networking, and semiconductors. Our
diverse team of technologists have developed a high performance RISC-V CPU from
scratch, and share a passion for AI and a deep desire to build the best AI
platform possible. We value collaboration, curiosity, and a commitment to
solving hard problems. We are growing our team and looking for contributors of
all seniorities.
We are hiring a System Integration Lead to unify and optimize the full stack of
our next-generation AI hardware. This is a rare opportunity to build a team from
scratch and drive the integration of our most advanced silicon into a cohesive,
high-performance system. You’ll own the interfaces, performance flow, and
architectural coordination that make Tensix run at its peak.
This role is hybrid, based out of Toronto, ON or Austin, TX.
We welcome candidates at various experience levels. During the interview
process, candidates will be assessed for the appropriate level, and offers will
align with that level, which may differ from the one in this posting.
Who You Are
- Skilled in SoC or system-level integration, with a keen ability to identify
and resolve bottlenecks in complex IP interactions.
- Technical leader who fosters high-performing teams, cuts through ambiguity,
and drives structured execution.
- Confident navigating data formats, CPU-hardware boundaries, and cross-IP
dependencies.
- Comfortable switching between hands-on debugging and high-level collaboration
across orgs.
What We Need
- Build and lead a system integration team from the ground up, setting
direction and standards.
- Align all pieces of the Tensix architecture into a unified, high-performance
AI core.
- Own integration schedules, technical coordination, and system-level planning
across DV, PD, and software.
- Debug performance issues across chip boundaries and optimize integration
workflows.
What You Will Learn
- How to maximize AI hardware performance through tight integration across the
system stack.
- Techniques for shift-left enablement that connect software, emulation, and
hardware readiness.
- What it takes to drive PPA optimization through smart design and early
performance insights.
- How next-gen AI chips are architected, validated, and brought together at
scale.
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.
