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.

Tenstorrent is seeking a senior High Speed Interconnect / Signal Integrity Engineer to design and validate high-bandwidth links for large-scale AI systems. You will define, model, and qualify interconnect solutions across copper and optical technologies for next-generation AI inference and training clusters. This role is on-site in Santa Clara, CA, Austin, TX, or Toronto, Canada.

An experienced electrical engineer with a Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering. ~Comfortable building and owning link and channel budgets and making transparent tradeoffs between reach, loss, BER, and margin. ~ Familiar with cable specification and testing, as well as accelerated life testing, mating life, and failure analysis. ~ Define and specify high-speed interconnect architectures between systems within large AI clusters. Develop requirements, validation plans, and test strategies for passive and active copper cables and optical transceivers at 100G, 400G, 800G, and 1.6T. Document topologies, routing assumptions,



and cable requirements for internal and customer-facing clusters.

Perform link and channel budget analysis, including loss, jitter, eye margin, and BER considerations across PVT and aging. Lead and execute qualification and reliability testing, including accelerated life testing, mating life, and failure analysis for interconnect components. How to design and validate interconnects for large-scale AI training and inference clusters, spanning multiple generations of Tenstorrent silicon and systems.

How to translate supplier roadmaps and standards into concrete system requirements and deployment constraints for real customer workloads. End-to-end exposure to AI system architecture, from rack-level topology choices down to connector, cable, and transceiver details, in collaboration with world-class AI hardware and systems teams. S. export-controlled technology.

S. export laws, including those codified in the U.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).
