About the job
Be part of a diverse 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.
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
- Generate high quality PnR/APR results for one or more digital blocks, including DRC and LVS signoff, working closely with front end designers and back end physical design integration engineers.
- Close timing on blocks using modern STA tools and techniques while suggesting improvements to the design when issues arise.
- Analyze power integrity (EMIR) of blocks and implement fixes once issues are identified.
- Optimize designs based on key metrics, including power, area, and performance trade-off analyses.
- Apply engineering best practices (e.g., code review, testing, refactoring) to the design and implementation of ASIC blocks.
