Job Description

Tenstorrent is seeking a Digital Verification Engineer on a contract basis to contribute to their verification efforts. The role is flexible, with candidates able to be based in the US or Canada, and remote work is an option. The candidate will lead the verification of Tenstorrent’s digital IP and SoC logic, leveraging advanced verification methodologies. They will collaborate with architects, RTL designers, and post-silicon teams to ensure verification closure.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the verification of Tenstorrent’s digital IP and SoC logic, leveraging advanced verification methodologies.
• Develop and execute test plans to validate functionality, performance, and power efficiency.
• Design and implement UVM-based testbenches, checkers, models, assertions, and coverage metrics.
• Develop C/C++/Python-based tests and simulation environments to validate hardware designs.
• Drive FPGA prototyping and emulation to accelerate pre-silicon validation.
• Analyze and improve verification coverage while optimizing execution for tape-out readiness.
• Collaborate with architects, RTL designers, and post-silicon teams to ensure verification closure.

Requirements:

• Substantial experience in digital verification, with a strong understanding of SoC and IP verification methodologies.
• Experience with Ethernet, PCIe, and AXI verification.
• Expertise in SystemVerilog (UVM), SystemC, and coverage-driven constrained random verification.
• Strong programming skills in C/C++ and scripting languages (Python, Perl, Tcl, Bash, Make).
• Experience with functional coverage, assertions, and formal verification techniques.
• Hands-on experience with FPGA prototyping, emulation, or hardware acceleration is a plus.
• Deep knowledge of computer architecture, power/performance verification, and SoC validation.
• Ability to work independently in a remote or hybrid environment.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

Tenstorrent offers:

• A highly competitive compensation package and benefits.
