About this role

Tenstorrent is hiring a Sr. Engineer, PCB Power Design for a hybrid role located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This professional will shape advanced power distribution systems for next-generation artificial intelligence hardware platforms.

Role Overview

As a PCB Power Design Engineer at Tenstorrent, the individual will create and optimize power distribution networks for upcoming artificial intelligence accelerator cards. The position focuses on balancing electrical performance, board area, financial cost, and reliability across the entire product lifecycle. The professional will navigate all phases from initial component selection and simulation through to physical board bring-up, validation, debugging, and production readiness. This hybrid position operates out of the Toronto office, and candidates across different experience levels are welcome to apply.

Key Responsibilities

Design and optimize power distribution systems for next-generation artificial intelligence accelerator cards.
Manage the full power design lifecycle, including component selection, simulation, lab bring-up, validation, debugging, and production preparation.
Collaborate closely with hardware, firmware, software, thermal, mechanical, and validation teams to deliver robust power architectures.
Perform voltage regulator module bring-up, power consumption analysis, prototyping, testing, and post-silicon troubleshooting.

Requirements

Experience designing, analyzing, and debugging power distribution systems for high-performance or high-power electronics.
Practical background using end-to-end power design and analysis software such as Simplis, PSim, PowerDC, PowerSI, or equivalent tools, along with enterprise eCAD systems.
Deep familiarity with power architectures and topologies including multi-phase buck, boost, STC, TLVR, magnetics, control theory, voltage regulator tuning, power integrity, and power distribution network analysis.
Understanding of printed circuit board design, electromagnetic interference and compatibility compliance, thermal management, and standards like PCIe CEM, PMBus, and AVSBus.
Strong laboratory skills for prototyping, testing, and post-silicon troubleshooting.
