## About the role

We’re looking for a Staff Forward Deployed Engineer who’s excited to build with the engineers using the AI computers Tenstorrent makes. You will create continuity between customers, engineering, and AI inference service products. This is an engineering role first: you contribute production code, operate deployments, and you can explain a trade-off to customer leadership as clearly as to core engineering teams. This is a high-autonomy role with direct customer impact.

## What they're looking for

- You understand how accelerator compute, memory, and networking topology constrain AI workloads, and don't treat hardware as a black box
- You're an early adopter of AI for your work from coding to building agentic workflows that multiply your impact
- You work directly with customers to understand their challenges and provide effective solutions
- You are comfortable debugging across the full inference stack: from failing requests, through the serving layer, down to OOMs or kernel dispatch if need be
- You bring feedback in the form of pull requests, reproducible code, benchmarks, and telemetry data
