Sr Engineer, Server Inference

Tenstorrent is leading the industry on cutting-edge AI technology, revolutionizing performance expectations, ease of use, and cost efficiency. With AI redefining the computing paradigm, solutions must evolve to unify innovations in software models, compilers, platforms, networking, and semiconductors. Our diverse team of technologists have developed a high performance RISC-V CPU from scratch, and share a passion for AI and a deep desire to build the best AI platform possible. We value collaboration, curiosity, and a commitment to solving hard problems. We are growing our team and looking for contributors of all seniorities.

Join our Inference Server Technologies team, where we develop software that powers state-of-the-art AI inferencing on Tenstorrent’s cutting-edge hardware. Our team builds the layer that works on top of the Tenstorrent ML libraries - designing APIs, deploying workloads, and benchmarking end-to-end inference speed. You’ll help us shape how developers consume and scale model execution on Tenstorrent’s stack.

This role is hybrid based in Belgrade, Serbia.
