Senior RTL Design Engineer, Google Cloud

About the job

In this role, you will use Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) design to be part of a team that creates the System on a Chip (SoC) design cycle from start to finish. You will collaborate with design and verification engineers in projects, creating architecture definitions with Register-Transfer Level (RTL) coding, and running block level simulations. You will contribute in ASIC designs from design specification to production. You will collaborate with members of architecture, software, verification, power, timing, synthesis and more to specify and deliver high quality SoC/RTL. You will also solve technical problems with innovative micro-architecture and practical logic solutions, and evaluate design options with performance, power, and area in mind.Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

Responsibilities

• Lead a complex ASIC subsystem.
• Understand how the subsystem interacts with software and other ASIC subsystems to implement groundbreaking data center.
• Define high-performance hardware/software interfaces. Write micro architecture and design specifications.
• Define efficient micro-architecture and block partitioning/interfaces and flows.
• Collaborate closely with software, verification, and physical design stakeholders to ensure the designs are complete, correct, and performant.

Qualifications

Minimum qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent practical experience.
• 5 years of experience with RTL development for ASIC subsystems using Verilog.
• Experience with speed interfaces such as PCIe, InfiniBand, and their low latency, security, and reliability principles.
• Experience with micro architecture, design, verification, logic synthesis, and timing closure.

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Python or Perl).
• Knowledge of arithmetic units, bus architectures, processor design, accelerators, or memory hierarchies.
• Knowledge of high performance and low power design techniques.
• Knowledge of FPGA, emulation platforms, and SoC architecture.
• Knowledge of assertion-based formal verification.
