Job Description

Google is seeking a Senior Network Design Engineer to contribute to the development of custom silicon solutions for its direct-to-consumer products. This role involves designing and implementing ASICs to accelerate data center networking. Responsibilities include participating in ASIC design evaluation, developing new layer protocols, understanding hardware/software interactions, defining performance interfaces, and writing micro-architecture and design specifications. The engineer will be responsible for performance analysis of the end-to-end networking stack, focusing on RDMA-based transports. The role requires deep expertise in networking ASICs, RDMA, packet processing, and low-latency, high-throughput system design. The ideal candidate will possess experience in RTL development, micro-architecture, verification, and timing closure.

Must have:

8+ years architecting networking ASICs
RDMA and packet processing experience
RTL development for ASIC subsystems
Cross-functional experience (design, verification, synthesis)
Performance analysis and testing

Good to have:

TCP/IP, Ethernet, PCIe, DRAM, NoC knowledge
Network simulation and modeling skills
Hardware/software interface optimization
Experience with networking switches and endpoints
C++, Python, or Go programming skills
Understanding of packet classification, processing, queueing, scheduling, switching, routing, traffic conditioning, and telemetry
