Job Description

This role involves leading the physical design of CPUs for Google Cloud's custom silicon solutions. Responsibilities include leading the physical design to tape-out, collaborating with multiple team members, and developing physical design methodologies. The position requires working with architects and logic designers to conduct feasibility studies and define design targets. This role also involves participation in design reviews, issue resolution, and technical/schedule tradeoff discussions. The candidate will create execution plans and manage team efforts from concept to volume production. A strong understanding of architecture and design specifications is essential, along with the ability to define physical design strategies to meet quality and schedule goals. The work contributes directly to the development of custom silicon solutions for Google's direct-to-consumer products.

Must have:

Bachelor's degree in EE or equivalent
SoC cycle experience
Advanced design experience (clock/voltage, DFT, low power)
High-performance, high-frequency, low-power design expertise
Lead physical design to tape-out

Good to have:

VLSI design experience in SoC or ASIC
System Verilog and TCL scripting experience
Layout verification and design rule experience

Minimum qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent practical experience.
Experience with System on a Chip (SoC) cycles.
Experience with advanced design, including clock/voltage domain crossing, DFT, and low power designs.
Experience in high-performance, high-frequency, and low-power designs.

Preferred qualifications:

Experience in Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) design in SoC or with multiple-cycles of SoC in ASIC design.
Experience coding with System Verilog and scripting with Transaction Control Language (TCL).
Experience with layout verification and design rules.

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.

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

Lead physical design of the CPU to tape-out while working with multiple team members.
Evaluate and develop physical design methodologies and decide on the System on a Chip (SoC) flow.
Work with architects and logic designers to drive architectural feasibility studies, develop timing, power and area design targets, and explore Register-Transfer Level (RTL)/design tradeoffs for physical design closure.
Participate in design reviews and track issue resolution, and engage in technical and schedule tradeoff discussions. Create execution plans for projects and manage team efforts from concept to working silicon in volume.
Understand architecture and design specifications with the team, and define physical design strategies and tactics to meet quality and schedule goals.
