The Software Engineer will work closely with ML and SoC architecture teams to understand ML IP instruction sets and architecture. Responsibilities include studying ML IP architecture, developing functional and performance models, integrating models with the Cloud TPU SoC model, deploying models into validation flows (pre-silicon and post-silicon), and collaborating with compiler and software teams. The goal is to contribute to the development of high-quality designs for next-generation data center accelerators that power Google's AI/ML applications.
Must have:
  • Bachelor's degree in CS or related field
  • 2 years experience developing simulators/reference models for hardware
  • C/C++ and scripting (Python/Perl) experience
  • Develop functional/performance models for ML IPs
  • Integrate models with Cloud TPU SoC model
Good to have:
  • Master's degree in CS/EE
  • Experience modeling ML IPs (compute IPs)
  • IP model integration with SoC model experience
  • Familiarity with AI/ML topologies (ResNet, BERT)

Job Details

Minimum qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2 years of experience with developing simulators or reference models for hardware.
  • Experience with programming in C/C++ and scripting (e.g., Python/Perl).

Preferred qualifications:

  • Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience in modeling Machine Learning IPs, specifically compute IPs.
  • Experience in integrating IP models with the SoC model.
  • Familiarity with industry standard AI/ML topologies such as RESNET, BERT, etc.

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.

In this role, you will be responsible for developing functional and/or performance models for ML compute IPs and integrating them with the Cloud TPU SoC model. You will be working closely with ML and SoC architecture teams to understand the instruction set and architecture of ML IPs in good detail. You will be working closely with pre-silicon (e.g., DV, emulation), post-silicon, and Software teams who will be using these models as a part of their validation flow and aid in delivering high quality designs for next generation data center accelerators.

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

  • Study the instruction set and architecture of the ML IPs and drive discussions on the delta features from the previous generation.
  • Develop functional and/or performance models for the ML IPs. Integrate the functional models with the Cloud TPU SoC model and deliver the single source of truth architectural reference.
  • Work with pre-silicon verification and post-silicon validation teams to deploy the models into their validation flows.
  • Work with compiler and software teams to enable them to left-shift their development activity.
