About the jobAs an ECAD Librarian, you will manage the Digital Network Architecture (DNA) of our hardware, building and organizing the libraries that allow our engineers to design the world's most powerful computing infrastructure. From large Ball Grid Array (BGA) packages to interconnects, you will ensure that every component is built for precision, manufacturability, and global scale.
In this role, you will bridge the gap between Electrical Engineering, Printed Circuit Board Layout, and Manufacturing. You will architect a library system that supports seamless routing and hardware lifecycles. Your work ensures that Google's custom-built servers move from concept to high-volume manufacturing, directly impacting the infrastructure that powers services for millions of users.
