About the job

Our computational challenges are so big, complex and unique we can't just purchase off-the-shelf hardware, we've got to make it ourselves. Your team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google's services. As a Hardware Engineer, you design and build the systems that are the heart of the world's largest and most powerful computing infrastructure. You develop from the lowest levels of circuit design to large system design and see those systems all the way through to high volume manufacturing. Your work has the potential to shape the machinery that goes into our cutting-edge data centers affecting millions of Google users.

With your technical expertise, you lead projects in multiple areas of expertise (i.e., engineering domains or systems) within a data center facility, including construction and equipment installation/troubleshooting/debugging with vendors.

Responsibilities

• Own and drive several activities related to architecture energy modeling, competitive performance and power analysis, power optimization, simulation and rollups. 
  
• Collaborate with the SoC Power Team in Taiwan on various power projections and requirements for our CPU, including silicon power capture of competitor CPUs for benchmarks and other daily workloads.
  
• Perform data mining analysis at the RTL and gate-level to define relevant micro-architectural transactions for high-level power estimation.
