About the job

The Google Augmented Reality Team’s mission is to make information instantly and intuitively accessible. The Product Engineering and Core Tech team is responsible for architecting, designing, and developing system hardware and enablers. We work at the intersection of hardware and software to enable novel perception experiences meanwhile overcoming the tight mechanical and energy constraints that are unique to Augmented Reality devices.

The Google Augmented Reality team is a diverse group of experts tasked with building the foundations for great immersive computing and building helpful, delightful user experiences. We're focused on making immersive computing accessible to billions of people through mobile devices, and our scope continues to grow and evolve.

Responsibilities

• Lead a team of architects to define overall silicon requirements and definition for the next generation of Augmented Reality devices custom architecture. Provide system requirements for next-generation phone system architectures and features. 
• Collaborate across numerous teams (i.e., System Engineering, Perception, Display, Core Software, Platform Engineering, System Architecture, and Research) to architect and implement features and solutions into Augmented Reality device system designs.  
• Analyze the workloads on silicon architectures and leverage that deep understanding to influence the design of both hardware and software systems.  
• Quantify product system goals, design concepts, key performance indices and their implementation in future Augmented Reality products.
• Advocate for new features and solutions while demonstrating the merits of new ideas, features, or user experiences. Prototype new or unique solutions through hardware, software, emulation, control algorithms, or machine learning.
