Tenstorrent is seeking a Staff Technical Program Manager to join the Data Center Deployment and SRE team. In this role, you will drive complex programs spanning hardware, software, infrastructure, and data center operations. You will connect technical dependencies, operational data, and engineering workflows to improve how systems are deployed and scaled at scale. This position combines deep technical understanding with hands-on program leadership, using automation and data to improve execution, visibility, and decision-making across teams. You will be a self-directed technical leader capable of taking ambiguous, cross-functional problems and turning them into structured, executable programs. You will serve as a systems thinker with strong understanding of computer architecture, operating systems, runtime systems, and hardware-software dependencies. Working hands-on with data, tooling, and automation, you will connect systems and improve the quality and accessibility of program information. You will be an effective technical partner working deeply with engineering teams while communicating risks, tradeoffs, and decisions clearly to senior leadership. In this role, you will learn how Tenstorrent deploys and operates complex AI hardware and software systems across large-scale data center environments, how architecture, firmware, compilers, software, infrastructure, and deployment interact throughout the lifecycle of an AI system, and how to apply automation and AI-enabled tooling to improve technical program execution, operational visibility, and decision-making. You will also shape the tooling, processes, and operating model used to scale deployment and SRE programs across Tenstorrent. Tenstorrent is leading the industry on cutting-edge AI technology, revolutionizing performance expectations, ease of use, and cost efficiency. The company has developed a high-performance RISC-V CPU from scratch and is building the best AI platform possible through innovations in software models, compilers, platforms, networking, and semiconductors. REQUIREMENTS: - Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field - 5+ years leading complex technical programs, tooling initiatives, or data-driven engineering operations as a TPM, technical lead, or cross-functional owner - Strong understanding of computer architecture and systems, including processors, memory hierarchies, interconnects, operating systems, runtimes, and hardware-software interfaces - Technical depth to identify dependencies, evaluate tradeoffs, and drive execution across hardware, firmware, compilers, software, infrastructure, and deployment teams - Experience building scalable workflows and automation using APIs, telemetry, data pipelines, dashboards, CI/CD, SQL, Python, scripting, and engineering management platforms, with ability to translate technical signals, metrics, risks, and dependencies into clear executive-level reporting
