Tenstorrent is hiring a senior staff engineer to lead front-end RTL physical implementation for a high-performance RISC-V CPU and CPU subsystem, based in Austin or Santa Clara. The work covers PPA definition, floorplans, early area, power and frequency estimates, CAD flows across process nodes, and standardizing methodology with the physical design organization. The posting asks for deep physical design experience, Verilog or VHDL skills, synthesis and place-and-route tooling, and CPU microarchitecture background. Distinctive: the role bridges physical design and design teams as an "IP PD" specialist, and candidates are levelled during interviews.
