Technical Program Manager, Product Software

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 on a quest to find a strong Technical Program Manager to lead the end-to-end software development of our next-generation Chiplet based SiP. The scope spans from architecture to tape-out silicon debug and software productization - across AI CPU Memory and I/O Chiplet domains. If you bring strong expertise in silicon development and exceptional Program Management skills - you will thrive in this role. Youll drive end-to-end software across pre-silicon and post silicon stages - building complex programs defining program metrics pushing boundaries and innovating in the AI Supercomputers space

This role is Hybrid based out of Santa Clara CA Austin TX or Toronto ON.

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.

Who You Are

• 10 years of experience in technical program management or chip-level engineering with 2 years in multi-chip/chiplet systems.
• Familiar with heterogeneous compute architectures (AI CPU memory networking) and early software phases (architecture pre-/post-silicon).
• Proven ability to manage 40 engineer programs external vendors (PCIe D2D Ethernet) and full software stacks from bare-metal to ML frameworks.
• Strong understanding of hardware-software codesign at chiplet package and system levels.
• Highly organized adaptable and expert in tools like JIRA Confluence and fast-paced decision making

What We Need

• Devise and manage multi-year software roadmaps and coordinate across silicon firmware and runtime teams.
• Define success metrics drive work breakdown structures and track progress with strong risk management and alignment strategies.
• Own shift-left strategies to de-risk bring-up and accelerate time-to-market.
• Manage vendor software integrations (PCIe D2D Ethernet) and set up robust CI/CD and testing frameworks.
• Communicate clearly with executives engineers and stakeholders balancing transparency with thoughtful tradeoff discussions.

What You Will Learn

• Deep experience with chiplet integration across AI CPU Memory and I/O - and how these technologies drive system performance.
• Hands-on with Tenstorrents open-source compiler runtime and firmware stack.
• Exposure to pre-/post-silicon methodologies and industry-leading shift-left program strategies.
• Collaborate with top-tier vendors and engage in real-world open-source vs. licensed IP tradeoffs.
• Learn how program strategy evolves at the cutting edge of RISC-V AI and HPC chiplet ecosystems

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.
