The posting

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.

To support our next-generation, high-performance RISC-V CPU architectures and advanced chiplet solutions, Tenstorrent is looking for a hands-on, experienced Post-Silicon Lab Manager. In this role, you will own the post-silicon lab infrastructure and manage operational workflows supporting bring-up, system validation, and customer enablement. You will scale the lab infrastructure to support multiple programs with varied requirements. You will direct post silicon validation engineers on cost building cost effective validation and debug infrastructure.

This role is hybrid, based out of Santa Clara, CA.

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

  • You hold a B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a similar technical field, and you have 8–12+ years in semiconductor hardware, including 3+ years leading a post-silicon validation, characterization, or hardware lab team focused on CPUs.
  • You know high-speed interfaces (PCIe, DDR/GDDR/HBM, SerDes) and fabric links in depth, and you're hands-on with board-level debug tools.
  • You bring a startup mindset. You stay calm and quick when troubleshooting physical hardware under tight tape-out and silicon-arrival deadlines.
  • You communicate clearly across functions and keep remote, multi-site teams aligned from the Santa Clara hub.

What We Need

  • Run day-to-day lab operations for CPU post-silicon validation, power/performance assessment, and debug, with lab infrastructure aligned to tape-out and bring-up schedules.
  • Lead the lab environment for first-silicon power-on, system bring-up, and platform validation, including board-level fixes to salvage eval boards or meet new validation needs.
  • Deploy and maintain server racks, data acquisition, power telemetry rigs, and automated test benches for multi-core CPU and chiplet-based systems. Manage the CapEx budget for scopes, logic/protocol analyzers, and traffic generators.
  • Own inventory, calibration cycles, silicon allocation tracking, and lab safety compliance using JIRA, Confluence, and lab scheduling tools.

What You Will Learn

  • How to bring up first silicon on advanced multi-core CPU and chiplet architectures, from power-on to full platform validation.
  • How to build and scale a world-class post-silicon lab at a fast-moving company.
  • How to debug critical post-silicon issues alongside the Emulation, Silicon Design, Software, and Architecture teams.
  • How your lab's capacity planning and infrastructure decisions shape silicon schedules and product success.

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.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
