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.
