About the job

Our computational challenges are so big, complex and unique we can't just purchase off-the-shelf hardware, we've got to make it ourselves. Your team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google's services. As a Hardware Engineer, you design and build the systems that are the heart of the world's largest and most powerful computing infrastructure. You develop from the lowest levels of circuit design to large system design and see those systems all the way through to high volume manufacturing. Your work has the potential to shape the machinery that goes into our cutting-edge data centers affecting millions of Google users.

In this role, you will be responsible for overseeing the design and development of cutting-edge chip for our innovative products. You will be responsible for leading the design and development of our silicon chip, from architecture requirements up to tape-out.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of our silicon chip, from architecture requirements to design and tape-out and production. 

• Collaborate with the cross-functional teams of verification, DFT, physical design, and program management to make design decisions and drive the development process.

• Deal with issues as they arise through design and implementation.

• Develop and implement design methodologies and best practices to ensure quality and improve efficiency of the chip development processes.
