About the job
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 use Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) design to be part of a team that creates the System on a Chip (SoC) design cycle from start to finish. You will collaborate with design and verification engineers in projects, creating architecture definitions with Register-Transfer Level (RTL) coding, and running block level simulations. You will contribute in ASIC designs from design specification to production. You will collaborate with members of architecture, software, verification, power, timing, synthesis and more to specify and deliver high quality SoC/RTL. You will also solve technical problems with micro-architecture and solutions, and evaluate design options with performance, power, and area.The ML, Systems, & Cloud AI (MSCA) organization at Google designs, implements, and manages the hardware, software, machine learning, and systems infrastructure for all Google services (Search, YouTube, etc.) and Google Cloud. Our end users are Googlers, Cloud customers and the billions of people who use Google services around the world.
We prioritize security, efficiency, and reliability across everything we do - from developing our latest TPUs to running a global network, while driving towards shaping the future of hyperscale computing. Our global impact spans software and hardware, including Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, the leading AI platform for bringing Gemini models to enterprise customers.
Responsibilities
- Define the SoC/block level design document such as interface protocol, block diagram, transaction flow, pipeline, etc.
- Perform Register-Transfer Level (RTL) development (e.g., coding and debug in Verilog, System Verilog), function/performance simulation debug and Lint/Cyber Defense Center/Formal Verification/Unified Power Format checks.
- Participate in synthesis, timing/power closure, and Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) silicon bring-up.
- Participate in test plan and coverage analysis of the block and SOC-level verification.
- Communicate and work with multi-disciplined and multi-site teams.
