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.

Join us to manage complex security challenges at the hardware-software interface, contributing to the security foundation of Google's flagship mobile devices, and making a tangible impact by developing novel security features for millions of users.

As a Systems Software Engineer, you will design and implement hardware-software interface systems for Google's Tensor SoC and Pixel devices. You will develop low-level system code that powers the mobile and Generative AI applications for millions of users. In this role, you will bridge the gap between hardware architecture and system software to maximize platform stability, performance, and power efficiency.
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.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, test, and maintain low-level software utilizing C, C++, or Rust for the Tensor SoC and Pixel ecosystem.
  • Develop prototypes and proof-of-concepts, iterating to evaluate the viability and feasibility of solutions proposed by the architecture team across simulation, emulation, and physical silicon goals.
  • Refine system architecture by participating in hardware/software design discussions and collaborate cross-functionally with Hardware, Software, Product, and Architecture teams to enable hardware/software co-design and implement system-level solutions.
  • Drive performance modeling, simulation, and analysis to predict system behavior and guide architectural trade-offs, focusing on metrics such as throughput, latency, and power consumption.
  • Analyze, optimize, and debug complex low-level system behaviors, operating system interactions, memory management, and hardware-software interfaces.
