Chiplet Design Architect

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.

As a CPU Chiplet Architect at Tenstorrent you will define the architecture for next-generation chiplet-based compute platforms enabling high-performance RISC-V CPUs within scalable System-in-Package (SiP) solutions. You will own key platform subsystemsincluding PCIe die-to-die connectivity system management and confidential computingand work closely with architecture hardware software and external IP partners to deliver robust production-ready chiplet architectures.

This role is remote based out of The United States.

We welcome candidates at various experience levels for this role. 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.

Wh You Are

• An experienced SoC or chiplet architect with a passion for defining scalable platform architectures.
• A collaborative technical leader who can build alignment across architecture hardware software and external partners.
• Comfortable making architectural decisions in complex fast-moving environments with evolving requirements.
• A proactive learner who enjoys mastering new technologies across hardware firmware and system software.
• An excellent communicator who can clearly articulate architectural trade-offs and drive execution.

What We Need

• Bachelors Masters or Ph.D. in Computer Engineering Electrical Engineering Computer Science or a related field.
• 10 years of experience in SoC CPU or chiplet architecture for high-performance computing or server-class systems.
• Strong expertise in PCI Express Root Complex RCiEP coherent fabrics (including CHI-C2C) IOMMU ATS/PRI MSI and confidential computing technologies such as TEE-I/O.
• Deep understanding of system management including boot reset debug and power management for high-performance CPUs.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional architecture efforts influence technical direction and communicate effectively across engineering organizations.

What You Will Learn

• How next-generation chiplet-based AI and CPU platforms are architected and integrated into scalable systems.
• Advanced techniques for confidential computing coherent fabrics PCIe and die-to-die communication in high-performance compute systems.
• How hardware firmware operating systems and virtualization technologies come together to enable modern server platforms.
• Best practices for integrating third-party IP into complex SoCs while maintaining performance security and reliability.
• How Tenstorrent develops industry-leading RISC-V platforms through close collaboration across global engineering teams.

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.
