Tetrahedral.

Si can [and will naturally try to] create four bonds with its electrons to fill its valence shell. The other four atoms in this molecule have a charge of -1 each, so all four of these atoms will bond directly with Si and space themselves out to maximum distance of each other. Four electron domains = tetrahedral.
