Staff Mixed Signal Design Engineer, Silicon Validation

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 seeking an experienced Silicon Validation Engineer to validate and qualify our cutting-edge die-to-die (D2D) subsystem, AI, and Processor IP testchips for the rapidly growing chiplet ecosystem. You'll develop hardware infrastructure for validation platforms, perform comprehensive electrical characterization, and support customer silicon bring-up. If you’re passionate about hands-on silicon testing and want to help usher in the chiplet era of semiconductor products, join us.

This role is hybrid, based out of Santa Clara, CA; or Toronto, Canada.

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

  • A hands-on engineer with 5+ years of silicon test and characterization experience in lab environments.
  • Expert with oscilloscopes, BERTs, and test equipment who can independently debug complex validation challenges.
  • Self-driven problem solver with strong EE fundamentals in both digital and analog circuit design.
  • Excellent communicator who collaborates effectively with design teams and tracks progress meticulously.

What We Need

  • BS / MS in Electrical Engineering with 5+ years of hands-on silicon validation using Keysight / Tektronix equipment.
  • Proven experience with high-speed measurements (Tx jitter, Rx JTOL) and test automation scripting (Python, Perl, LabVIEW).
  • Strong understanding of datacomm circuits (amplifiers, PLLs, equalizers) and signal integrity concepts.
  • Track record of independently running validation tests and driving issue resolution with design teams.
  • What You Will Learn

  • How to build and evolve hardware infrastructure for advanced D2D validation and demo platforms.
  • Customer-facing silicon bring-up techniques and product qualification best practices.
  • The opportunity to shape validation standards in the emerging chiplet ecosystem at a fast-moving startup.
  • 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.
