About the job

As a Chip Package Designer on the Silicon Integration team, your role is to develop package substrate designs of advanced (2.5D/3.5D) packaging technologies for ML chips. This involves collaborating with SI/PI, Thermal/Mechanical, Assembly, and PCB engineers to create complex, high-performance substrate designs, where your goal is to optimize package substrate design for electrical performance, reliability, and assembly.

You will manage all phases of the design process, including routing feasibility, test vehicle creation, product designs, conducting design reviews, artwork export, DFM process and generating final documentation. Additionally, you will be instrumental in identifying and incorporating advanced chip packaging technologies into the Google chip product design pipeline, which contributes to successful chip deployment in data centers, ensuring the best optimized PPA (Power, Performance, Area) designs and enhancing system performance relative to TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) and power.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

US: $163000 - $237000 (USD) 15% bonus target equity benefits
