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 designing AI hardware that pushes the limits of performance, power efficiency, and scalability. This role focuses on architecture and micro-architecture of Tensix AI cores, optimizing for performance, power, and area. You’ll collaborate with architects, designers, and software teams to deliver high-performance AI IP. 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. What We Need Good understanding of AI workload characteristics, in particular LLMs. Extensive experience in RTL design and micro-architecture of caches and/or scratch-pad memories. Experience developing and/or working with performance models for architecture exploration.
