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.

In this role, you will be part of Google's Consumer Hardware Silicon team, developing high performance and low power hardware to enable Google's continuous innovations in this space. You will lead the cross-functional team to bring-up, debug, and validate SoC silicon. As part of your role, you will work with architects and logic designers to plan pre-silicon platform to enable software development prior to silicon arrival, and then post arrival lead power-on and overall silicon validation effort to deliver quality silicon to internal customers.

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

• Build scalable and low-overhead C++ based runtime and firmware for high-performance compute on the Tensor SoC.
• Define stable, backward-compatible APIs that allow applications to leverage compute acceleration efficiently. Work closely with first-party app developers on Google devices to ensure a good user experience on device.
• Develop unit tests and end-to-end tests that comprehensively validate the software stack.
• Develop tools and infrastructure that enables customers to easily integrate and test their code.
• Help set the direction for new system architectures to support future applications such as heterogeneous compute.
