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.
With your technical expertise, you lead projects in multiple areas of expertise (i.e., engineering domains or systems) within a data center facility, including construction and equipment installation/troubleshooting/debugging with vendors.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people's lives better through technology.
Responsibilities
- Develop, support, and execute implementation flows from RTL through GDS including some or all of the following: Synthesis, Floorplanning, Place and Route, Power/Clock Distribution, Extraction, etc.
- Collaborate with the central cad team to implement flows and methodologies to improve Performance, Power and Area (PPA) and Turn-Around-Time (TAT).
- Work with EDA vendors to resolve tool issues and bugs.
- Own and drive execution of Place and Route block during execution phase.
- Remove roadblocks for engineers in Auto Place and Route (APR) activities.
