• Knowledge of high performance and low power design techniques.
• Proficiency in a procedural programming language (e.g., C++, Python, Go).

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.

In this role, you will be part of a team developing Artificial Intelligence (AI) accelerators in data centers and have dynamic, multi-faceted responsibilities in areas such as project definition, design, and implementation. You will participate in the design, architecture, documentation, and implementation of the next generation of data center accelerators.

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

• Evaluate different silicon solutions for executing Google’s data center Artificial Intelligence (AI) accelerator roadmap: off-the-shelf components, vendor co-developments, custom designs, and chiplets.
• Create high performance hardware/software interfaces.
• Collaborate with software, verification, emulation, physical design, packaging, and silicon validation stakeholders to ensure that designs are complete, correct, and performant.
• Own microarchitecture of compute intensive Internet Protocols (IP) and subsystems.
• Identify and drive power, performance, and area improvements for the modules owned.
