Job Description:
Minimum qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical
Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related
field, or equivalent practical experience. 4 years of experience in
test engineering or product engineering. Experience in ASIC or SoC
test development, bring-up, or debug for prototypes or High Volume
Manufacturing (HVM). Experience with Automatic Test Equipment (ATE)
(e.g., Advantest or Teradyne platforms). Preferred qualifications:
Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical
Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science, with an
emphasis on computer architecture. 7 years of experience in test
engineering or product engineering. Experience with Scan/ATPG test
development, especially with Streaming Scan Network (SSN)/Streaming
Fabric techniques, or memory BIST test development and repair
scheme implementation, including BISR/BIRA. Experience in testing
Intellectual Property (IP) such as Phase-locked Loops (PLL),
Process Voltage Temperature (PVT) sensors, thermal diodes, Process
Monitor Ring Oscillator (PMRO), droop detector, aging sensor, and
eFuse. Experience with PCIE, Double Data Rate (DDR) and HBM
testing. About the job In this role, you’ll work to shape the
future of AI/ML hardware acceleration. You will have an opportunity
to drive cutting-edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) technology that
powers Google's most demanding AI/ML applications. You’ll be part
of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon
solutions that power the future of Google's TPU. You'll contribute
to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide, and
leverage your design and verification expertise to verify complex
digital designs, with a specific focus on TPU architecture and its
integration within AI/ML-driven systems. In this role, you will
help build System on a Chips (SoC) that power the data centers by
developing and deploying comprehensive test solutions with
Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) for New Product Introduction (NPI)
and High Volume Manufacturing (HVM) at wafer fabs and Outsourced
Assembly and Tests (OSAT). You will have an opportunity to create
silicon and follow it into the field to close the loop back to
design and test for the next generations of chips. You will help to
integrate SoC technologies into devices and drive ATE manufacturing
testing to validate performance and screen devices. You will own
all aspects of testing and work with cross-functional teams to
ensure the optimal test coverage in production and high quality
SoCs. You will work with various groups to develop tests,
automation methodologies, develop/support internal tools for test
program generation, vector tracking, test program release, etc. You
will also work on releasing cost effective production test
solutions into mass production. The AI and Infrastructure team is
redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with
breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and
Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and
velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers,
and billions of Google users worldwide. We're the driving force
behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the
development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled
computing power to global services, and providing the essential
platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software
to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading
hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of
our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking,
Data Center operations, systems research, and much more. The US
