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.
Overview: This posting includes 3 unique teams on Tenstorrent's AI software stack - Training, Model and Ops/Kernels. These teams contribute to production software where correctness, scalability, and performance all matter.
This is a full-time, on-site internship for a minimum of 13 weeks; 6 months is preferred. Training and Models teams will be based out of Warsaw. Ops/Kernels team may be based in Gdańsk or Warsaw_._ Final team placements are matched based on candidate skill sets and current team priorities closer to your start date.
What you might work on:
- Training: Develops and profiles distributed LLM training workflows, optimizing training engines, scaling behavior, and diagnostic tools across multi-device systems.
- Models: Optimizes ML models (LLMs, vision models, video and image generation, and other architectures) for our hardware
- Kernels/Ops: Develops high performance kernels on Tenstorrent hardware
