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.
Tenstorrent builds AI and RISC-V compute hardware and licenses its technology to partners worldwide. The Corporate Development Manager leads work streams across the full range of the team’s work: fundraising and investor relations, mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnerships, licensing, and commercial transactions. Managers own the evaluation, structuring, negotiation, and execution of transactions, lead the analysis behind them, and represent Tenstorrent directly with partners, customers, investors, and the executive team.
The role suits someone who takes on responsibility quickly, operates independently, manages and develops junior team members, and is credible in front of the C-suite.
Corporate Development is responsible for the transactions that shape Tenstorrent as a company: raising capital, acquiring or partnering with other businesses, and structuring the commercial and licensing agreements that extend the reach of its technology. The team runs Tenstorrent’s equity and debt financings and its investor relations, evaluates and executes buy-side and sell-side M&A, negotiates strategic partnerships and joint development agreements, supports licensing and strategic sales, and develops government and sovereign AI programs.
Counter parties include semiconductor and systems companies, data center operators, institutional and strategic investors, and government bodies in North America, Asia, and Europe.
The team reports directly to Tenstorrent’s Chief Strategy Officer and works day to day with the CEO and the executive team. It is small, and every member carries real responsibility from the start.
This role is hybrid or remote, based out of Santa Clara, CA;
Austin, TX;
Boston, MA;
Toronto, ON or New York, NY.

- Analytically strong, with sound commercial judgment and the ability to turn analysis into decisions. Serious about the work and good company while doing it. You can take a joke and make one, then put your head down and finish the job.
- Knowledgeable about, or eager to learn, the semiconductor, data…
