About the job
Our computational challenges are so big, complex and unique we can't just purchase off-the-shelf hardware, we've got to make it ourselves. Your team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google's services. As a Hardware Engineer, you design and build the systems that are the heart of the world's largest and most powerful computing infrastructure. You develop from the lowest levels of circuit design to large system design and see those systems all the way through to high volume manufacturing. Your work has the potential to shape the machinery that goes into our cutting-edge data centers affecting millions of Google users.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
Responsibilities
Implement the architecture for system solutions for consumer electronics. Lead system architecture design and implementation, including power architecture, charging system, radios, sensors, audio, display, and other subsystems.
Work with stakeholders to deliver solutions that optimize system parameters (performance, efficiency, size, and cost). Analyze impact of design decisions, production variance, and changes.
Partner to create module and system-level verification test protocols. Execute plans with internal and vendor-based teams. Compile results into findings, recommendations, and next steps.
Identify issues for production and implement corrective action. Interface with cross-functional teams to meet technical needs and product schedule.
Bring up and validate platform and form-factor hardware and collaborate with product integration teams with design analysis, risk assessments and mitigation plans, technical support for production issue debug and resolution. Perform rigorous design reviews with silicon vendors and internal teams.
