About the job

In 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 diverse 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.

Google’s data centers are the most advanced in the world. In this role you will help build System on a Chips (SoC) that power these data centers by developing and deploying comprehensive test solutions with Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) for New Product Introduction (NPI) and High Volume Manufacturing (HVM) at wafer fabs and Outsourced Assembly and Tests (OSAT). This is an opportunity to create silicon and follow it into the field to close the loop back to design and test for the next generations of chips.

You will help to integrate SoC technologies into devices and drive ATE manufacturing testing to validate performance and screen devices. You will own all aspects of testing and work with cross functional teams to ensure the optimal test coverage in production and high quality SoCs.

You will work with various groups to develop tests, automation methodologies, develop/support internal tools for test program generation, vector tracking, test program release, etc. You will also work on releasing cost effective production test solutions into mass production.

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.
