X In most instances, this position requires in-person interviews as part of the hiring process.
Minimum qualifications: - Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 8 years of experience with hardware engineering, ASIC digital design, design validation, test planning, and test design.
Preferred qualifications: - Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
- Experience with silicon validation, New Product Introduction (NPI), and the bring-up, characterization, and qualification of custom silicon.
- Experience collaborating with cross-functional systems, hardware, manufacturing, and vendor teams to drive the bring-up, qualification, and deployment of custom silicon.
- Experience with platform accelerators, high-speed ASIC interfaces, compute, memory systems (e.g. HBM), Design for Testing, and power system features for high-power SoCs.
About the jobIn this role, you'll work to shape the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration. You will have an opportunity to drive cutting-edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) technology that powers Google's most demanding AI/ML applications. You'll be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's TPU. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide, and leverage your design and verification expertise to verify complex digital designs, with a specific focus on TPU architecture and its integration within AI/ML-driven systems.
CI2 Platform Enablement is charged with helping bring our custom ASIC's from concept through to production.
In pre-silicon, we support integration and test on our hardware emulation platforms, and in post-silicon we help develop tests, operate bringup and validation efforts, and ensure our custom ASIC systems are qualified and sustainable.
We own and deliver the Silicon Validation effort of our overall silicon product development lifecycle. Efforts may center on power features, interfaces, HBM memory, compute functionality, and/or various aspects of system performance.
You will develop and execute test plans, characterize and enable silicon, and investigate and resolve chip and system issues.
Responsibilities - Own the bringup and New Product Introduction (NPI) phases to enable custom silicon products, validating ASIC subsystems such as boot, PCIe, memory (e.g., HBM, SRAM), compute cores, and power.
- Design, develop, operate, and maintain detailed validation tests and test plans in coordination with cross-functional architecture, design, and software teams.
- Perform system characterization, qualification, and debugging to root-cause failures across both pre-silicon prototyping platforms and post-silicon production.
- Provide feedback to improve critical features like power management quality, performance, and reliability through successive generations of designs.
- Partner with customers, systems, manufacturing, diagnostics, and vendor teams to resolve issues and eliminate failures by "shifting left" in the production and deployment lifecycle.
Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
