Job Description

This role involves designing and implementing Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) to accelerate data center networking. Responsibilities include participating in ASIC design evaluations, collaborating on new data center networking protocols, defining hardware/software interfaces, and creating micro-architecture and design specifications. The engineer will be responsible for performance analysis of the end-to-end networking stack, leveraging expertise in RDMA-based transports. The work contributes to Google's direct-to-consumer products and involves close collaboration with software teams.

Must have:

10+ years ASIC architecture experience
RTL development for ASIC subsystems
RDMA and packet processing expertise
Experience with low latency, high throughput designs
Cross-functional team collaboration

Good to have:

Experience optimizing hardware/software interfaces
Networking switch/endpoint architecture experience
TCP/IP, Ethernet, PCIe, DRAM, NoC knowledge
C++, Python, or Go programming
Performance analysis, modeling, and simulation skills

Minimum qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in BSC, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
10 years of experience architecting networking ASICs from specification to production.
Experience working with design networking like: RDMA and or packet processing and system design principles for low latency, high throughput, security, and reliability.
Experience developing RTL for ASIC subsystems.
Experience in Cross-functional, micro-architecture, design, verification, logic synthesis, and timing closure.

Preferred qualifications:

Experience working with software teams optimizing the hardware/software interface.
Experience architecting networking switches, end points, and hardware offloads.
Experience in Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), IP, Ethernet, PCIE and Dynamic random-access memory (DRAM), Network on Chip (NoC) principles and protocols.
Experience in a procedural programming language (e.g. C++, Python, Go.).
Experience in estimating performance by analysis, modeling, and network simulation. Skilled in defining and driving performance test plans.
Understanding of packet classification, processing, queueing, scheduling, switching, routing, traffic conditioning, and telemetry.
