Tenstorrent is a Canadian semiconductor company founded in 2016 that designs artificial intelligence accelerators and RISC-V processors, and it is unusual in the field for licensing its designs as intellectual property as well as selling hardware. It is led by Jim Keller, the chip architect behind AMD's Zen and Apple's early mobile processors, and its argument against Nvidia is openness: an open instruction set, open source software stack and licensable designs rather than a closed platform. Headquartered in Toronto and backed by investors including Samsung, Hyundai and Bezos Expeditions, it competes in a market where software maturity matters as much as silicon.

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.

Tenstorrent is building high-performance AI compute systems that scale from developer desktops to data centers. Developer cards and systems are a developer’s first encounter with Tenstorrent, a gateway to our open source software stack and silicon. To developers, it has to feel programmable, powerful, and fun. You’ll work closely with Hardware, Software, Customer Success, and Sales teams to enable a variety of use cases. We’re looking for someone to support the work needed to deliver the best experience possible with our developer-focused hardware.

This role is hybrid, based out of Toronto, Canada or Santa Clara, CA (preferred).

Who You Are

  • You think like a developer: curious, detail-obsessed, unwilling to accept friction.
  • You’re a systems thinker who sees how hardware, firmware, and software connect.
  • You want to define, build, and prove a product in the market, not hand it off once it’s live.
  • You’d rather fix a problem than talk about it twice.

What We Need

  • Comfort with hardware systems and the software that drives them.
  • A track record of shipping technical products, preferably hardware or close to it.
  • Ability to balance engineering realities with customer impact and market adoption.
  • A strong product evangelist, guiding teams through tradeoffs with the developer in mind.
  • Clear, direct communication, leading with “why” as well as “what.”
  • A strong commitment to supporting the product throughout its entire lifecycle.

What You Will Learn

  • Turn hardware, software, docs, and UX into one product developers love.
  • Prove adoption and shape a product that earns its place in the portfolio.
  • Move fast without cutting corners, shipping state of the art systems on time.
  • Work directly with developers in the wild and make their feedback count.

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.
