About the Role

Tenstorrent is seeking a Physical Design Engineer to help converge multi-million-gate designs on advanced process nodes and partner with cross-functional teams through final signoff and tapeout. This role is crucial in advancing our cutting-edge AI technology.

Responsibilities

  • Drive timing convergence across blocks, partitions, sections, and top-level designs.
  • Generate and validate timing models and publish results.
  • Analyze timing violations, develop and propagate fixes, and debug timing-flow issues.
  • Keep execution progressing through tapeout.
  • Develop and validate bottom-up constraints.
  • Partner with Design and DFT teams on methodology updates and closure requirements.
  • Use Python, Perl, and Tcl for automation and flow development.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in STA, timing closure, and advanced-node design implementation.
  • Experience with timing flows, constraints, clocking, CDC, RDC, derates, uncertainties, guardbanding, and final signoff.
  • Skilled in writing and debugging SDC constraints, creating ECOs, developing closure strategies, and analyzing worst-case corners.
  • Strong collaborator and communicator who can drive results across distributed, cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Position requires access to technology that requires a U.S. export license for persons whose most recent country of citizenship or permanent residence is a U.S. EAR Country Groups D:1, E1, or E2 country.
  • Offer of employment is contingent upon the applicant being eligible to access U.S. export-controlled technology.
