About the jobBe 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.

Application Instructions: In most instances, this position requires in-person interviews as part of the hiring process.

As a Physical Design Engineer, you will contribute to improving Design Power, Performance, and Area (PPA) using various techniques. You will use your experience of physical design and machine learning to solve hard technical problems, collaborate with Register-Transfer Level/Design Verification/Design for Testability (RTL/DV/DFT) teams, and improve on Power, Performance, Area and Schedule. You will directly impact logic design and optimizations, floorplan, place and route, clock and power planning, timing analysis, Power Distribution Network (PDN) analysis and beyond. You will collaborate across Alphabet working with design, CAD and machine learning teams.The Platforms and Devices team encompasses Google's various computing software platforms across environments (desktop, mobile, applications), as well as our first party devices and services that combine the best of Google AI, software, and hardware. Teams across this area research, design, and develop new technologies to make our user's interaction with computing faster and more seamless, building innovative experiences for our users around the world.

Responsibilities

Take end-to-end ownership of synthesis-to-Graphic Data System (GDS) implementation of complex physical partitions/subsystems.
Collaborate with sign-off teams and own the convergence of Electromigration (EM)/IR, power, timing and physical verification.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams RTL, DFT, CAD to improve Power/Performance/Area in physical design.
Use and improve CAD recipes for PPA benefits.
