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.

As a Power-Integrity engineer in the Packaging team, you will work with other packaging team members and cross-functional teams to define power delivery architecture and design and optimize the package for power integrity.

You will ensure efficient and high-quality power delivery through the package. You will support feasibility studies, product design, and future technology evaluation to enable Tenstorrent’s chiplet-based products.

This role is hybrid, based out or Toronto.

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:

  • Work with layout engineers on power delivery network planning and build simulation models for the package and chiplet complexes.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams from Silicon Architecture to PCB and System Integration
  • Utilize industry-standard simulation tools (Ansys SI-Wave and HFSS-3D-layout) to perform power Integrity Analysis, including DC IR, frequency domain and time domain analysis and optimize distribution networks and high-speed channels between chiplets
  • Develop automation routines for pre-layout design and simulation
  • Explore new technologies, evaluate them, and enable the proper technologies on Tenstorrent products
