About the job

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

• Define the SoC/block level design document such as interface protocol, block diagram, transaction flow, pipeline etc.
  
• Perform Register-Transfer Level (RTL) development (e.g., coding and debug in Verilog, SystemVerilog), function/performance simulation debug and Lint/CDC/FV/UPF checks.
  
• Participate in synthesis, timing/power closure and ASIC silicon bring-up.
  
• Participate in test plan and coverage analysis of the block and SoC level verification.
  
• Communicate and work with multi-disciplined and multi-site teams.
