Job description

Be part of a 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. In this role, you will contribute to all phases of complex designs of CPU subsystems from design specification to productization, including integration into target SOCs. You will lead a front-end design team, collaborate with members of architecture, software, verification, power, DFT, physical design teams to define the microarchitecture and schedule in delivering high quality RTL that meets project goals. You'll help your team grow and solve technical problems with innovative micro-architecture and practical logic solutions. You will be responsible for evaluating and deciding on the best design options with complexity, performance, power and area and schedule in mind. 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. Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
