Job summary

Responsibilities

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…

• How Tenstorrent designs and validates high-performance RISC-V CPU cores and clusters.
• Techniques for building scalable CPU testbench infrastructure across core, cluster, and chip-level environments.
• Ways to apply CVM methodology to complex CPU verification and debug workflows.
• Techniques for spanning pre-silicon, emulation, and post-silicon verification with shared stimulus.
• How to scale coverage, debug, and infrastructure across multiple CPU programs within Tenstorrent’s broader compute roadmap.

What they're looking for

• You bring 8+ years in CPU verification, CPU testbench development, or closely related digital design.
• You have deep hands-on experience building and owning CPU core-level testbenches, not just using existing environments.
• You know high-performance out-of-order CPU microarchitecture in depth.
• You are comfortable developing testbench infrastructure in CVM methodology, with UVM experience as a strong plus.
• You work comfortably across RTL, waveforms, logs, regressions, and cross-functional debug with design, DV, emulation, and post-silicon teams.
