About the job

Be part of a diverse team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's direct-to-consumer products. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide. Your expertise will shape the next generation of hardware experiences, delivering unparalleled performance, efficiency, and integration.

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 physical design of the CPU to tape-out while working with multiple team members.
• Evaluate and develop physical design methodologies and decide on the System on a Chip (SoC) flow.
• Work with architects and logic designers to drive architectural feasibility studies, develop timing, power and area design goals, and explore Register-Transfer Level (RTL)/design tradeoffs for physical design closure.
• Participate in design reviews and track issue resolution, and engage in technical and schedule tradeoff discussions. Create execution plans for projects and manage team efforts from concept to working silicon in volume.
• Understand architecture and design specifications with the team, and define physical design strategies and tactics to meet quality and schedule goals.
