About the job

Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.

In this role, you will work on the core optimization and scheduling algorithms of the next-generation compiler featuring a Multi-Level Intermediate Representation (MLIR) based compiler framework serving both production and hardware/software code sign needs for Edge Tensor Processing Unit (TPU), the core algorithms are critical to deliver the best Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) performance of the silicon to our end users. You will design and implement optimization algorithms and compiler transformation frameworks to enable production-quality compilation and optimization of workloads. You will be able to make an impact on hardware/software co-optimization of AI/ML use cases for current and future generations of Google devices, including the latest Generative AI (GenAI) models.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people's lives better through technology.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $141,000-$202,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location.

Responsibilities

  • Work as part of the Edge Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) compiler team, including analyzing and improving the compiler quality and performance on optimization decisions, correctness, and compilation time.
  • Develop operator fusions, parallelization, and scheduling algorithms to optimize compute and data movement costs to execute Machine Learning workloads on the Edge Tensor Processing Unit (TPU).
  • Work on efficient mapping of generative AI models and other key workloads into Edge Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) instructions through the compiler.
  • Collaborate with Machine Learning model developers, researchers, and Edge Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) hardware/software teams to accelerate the transition from research ideas to exceptional user experiences running on the Edge Tensor Processing Unit (TPU).
