<div>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.</div>We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Physical Design Engineer with expertise in high-speed CPU core design to join our team. This role will be working closely with our Architects to develop the next generation of CPU. 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.   Responsibilities: <ul> <li>Hands-on experience with synthesis and place and route using industry standard tools for next generation high speed CPU core design.</li> <li>Perform all aspects of design flow from feasibility analysis, logic synthesis, place and route, FEV, power, timing, quality checks, and design closure.</li> <li>Develop and recommend better design method practices to enable better synthesis convergence.</li> <li>Plan out resources, schedule, project PPA</li> <li>The ideal candidate will exhibit behavioral traits that demonstrate:</li> <li>Willingness to work with others in a highly complex decision space.</li> <li>Skills at developing an implementation plan monitoring key indicators and communicating resource needs and scoping risk to deliver value on schedule.</li> <li>Excellent verbal and written communication and collaboration skills.</li> </ul>   Experience &amp; Qualifications: <ul> <li>Bachelors in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering with 10+ years of relevant work experience or M.S. in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering (or higher degree) with 10+ years of relevant work experience</li> <li>Experience with integrated circuit design tools (ex: Synopsys/Cadence), including logic synthesis, place and route, static timing analysis and design closure.</li> <li>PV convergence (including static timing and power analysis).</li> <li>Chip physical design verification including formal equivalence, timing, electrical rules, DRC/LVS, Noise and electro-migration checks.</li> <li>Hands-on experience with synthesis, block and chip level implementation with industry standard PnR flows and tools.</li> <li>Strong experience in SOC/ASIC/GPU/CPU design flows on taped out designs, expertise in timing closure at block/chip levels and ECO flows.</li> <li>Scripting in an interpreted language (Python, TCL)</li> </ul>   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.<div>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.</div>
