Summary
Google is seeking a Physical Design Engineer, AI Methodologies and Acceleration to join their team in Sunnyvale, CA. The role involves shaping the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration and driving TPU technology for Google's applications.
About the Role
As a Physical Design Engineer, you will own physical design blocks from RTL-to-GDSII, driving all aspects of the flow including floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, and physical verification. You will collaborate with Google DeepMind to incorporate AI-driven tools into the production flow and evaluate the physical design life-cycle to distinguish between traditional engineering heuristics and AI acceleration opportunities.
About You
Required:
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 2 years of experience in Physical Design (RTL-to-Graphic Data System II) and with closing blocks on advanced technology nodes.
- Experience with both Place and Route (P&R) and Signoff tools.
Preferred:
- Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science, with an emphasis on computer architecture.
- Experience piloting and deploying new methodologies (machine learning based or otherwise) to improve engineering efficiency or block-count throughput.
- Experience providing feedback to tool developers and with the concepts of ML-driven EDA.
- Ability to identify and articulate which parts of the physical design flow are repetitive or pattern-based versus those requiring specific architectural intuition.
- Ability to translate the clean versus dirty design data to software and research teams.
Benefits
- Competitive base salary ranging from $138k–$198k.
- Bonus and equity opportunities.
- Comprehensive benefits package.
