About the jobGoogle's custom-designed machines make up one of the largest and most powerful computing infrastructures in the world. The Hardware Testing Engineering team ensures that this cutting-edge equipment is reliable. In the R&D lab, you design test equipment for prototypes of our machinery and develop the protocols used to scale these tests for the entire global team. Working closely with design engineers, you give input on designs to improve our hardware until you're sure it meets Google's standards of quality and reliability.

As a Silicon Validation Engineer at Google Cloud, you will play a pivotal role in the validation of Google's custom silicon solutions that power our cloud infrastructure bringing it to the highest quality level. With your expertise in post-silicon validation, you will be identifying and resolving issues before they impact our customers, ensuring a seamless and high-performance cloud experience.

The ML, Systems, and 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, develop and execute post-silicon validation content on both pre-silicon setups and real silicon platforms in the lab.
• Drive silicon from being a chip towards becoming a product.
• Debug and investigate issues along cross-functional teams such as Firmware, Software, Design, Design Verification, Architecture and multiple production teams.
• Provide a quality functional coverage for Google designs.
