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.

The AI and Infrastructure team works on the world’s toughest problems, redefining what’s possible and the possible easy. We empower Google customers by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Googler Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide. We’re at the center of amazing work at Google by being the “flywheel” that enables our advanced AI models, delivers computing power across global services, and offers platforms that developers use to build services.

In AI and Infrastructure, we shape the future of hyperscale computing by inventing and creating world-leading future technology, and drive global impact by contributing to Google infrastructure, from software to hardware (including building Vertex AI for Google Cloud). We work on complex technologies at a global scale with key players in the AI and systems space. Join a team of talented individuals who not only work together to keep data centers operating efficiently but also create a legacy of driving innovation by building some of the most complex systems technologies.

Responsibilities

• Develop and optimize the overall layout of the chip, including partitioning, macro and IP placement, and pin placement.
• Design and implement efficient power delivery networks (power grids) to ensure stable power to all parts of the chip.
• Develop and validate high-performance, low-power clock networks (Clock Tree Synthesis - CTS) to ensure proper synchronization across the entire chip.
• Develop, enhance, and maintain custom scripts (e.g., Tcl, Perl, Python) for automation and improved efficiency.
• Conduct extensive design rule checks (DRC) to ensure the layout adheres to manufacturing rules, performing layout versus schematic (LVS) checks to verify that the physical layout matches the logical design.
