Role

Who you are

Highly organized and experienced in supporting senior executives in fast-paced environments
A natural problem-solver who can anticipate needs, juggle multiple priorities, and act with discretion
A confident communicator and collaborator, skilled in working across teams and time zones

What the job involves

We’re looking for an Executive Assistant to support our engineering executives. In this role, you’ll be a strategic partner to multiple VPs, helping them stay focused on what matters most. You’ll manage their calendars, communications, meetings, and travel logistics, playing a critical role in enabling leadership efficiency and alignment across key engineering initiatives
How to operate at the heart of a cutting-edge engineering organization
How to prioritize and support leadership in a dynamic and high-growth environment
How to drive clarity and focus for executives by optimizing how they spend their time
How to influence communication and coordination across a globally distributed tea

Our take

Advances in artificial intelligence apps, combined with a global chip shortage, are strong tailwinds for chip processor Tenstorrent. The semi-conducter developer is designing specialized chips for running artificial intelligence applications, building chips for what it calls "software 2.0".

The company’s unique approach is to build for this future software, which it believes will be written at a higher level. Combining this with conditional computing, Tenstorrent supports a scalable distributed network approach that is analogous to a human brain.

While the market for specialised AI hardware is destined to be gigantic, the company has to compete with a plethora of hopeful startups (as well as major tech companies like NVIDIA and Qualcomm). That said, Tenstorrent boasts an excellent trajectory so far, with its latest moves including unveiling its high-end Wormhole AI processors, and a partnership with LG which will see the development of chips for "Affectionate Intelligence".
