Job description

The Senior TPU RTL Design Engineer will work on shaping the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration by designing and developing core components of Google's next-generation Tensor Processing Units (TPUs). This role focuses on high-speed interconnect subsystems for ASIC/SoC hardware, specifically for AI and networking accelerators. The engineer will collaborate with various teams to ensure alignment between system and IP requirements while driving innovation in TPU technology. This position offers the opportunity to solve complex technical problems in a dynamic and collaborative environment.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5 years of experience in high-performance ASIC design.
  • Experience architecting or designing RTL solutions for digital systems.
  • Experience with high-speed interconnects.
  • Experience developing networking IP across one or more layers, such as the media access control (MAC), link (L2), or physical (PHY) layers.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the microarchitecture and RTL execution to deliver high-performance network design components that meet strict power, performance, and area goals.
  • Collaborate with system architects and software/firmware teams to ensure alignment between system and IP requirements.
  • Own the complete RTL lifecycle from initial microarchitecture, coding, and documentation to ensuring sign-off readiness for Lint, CDC, and synthesis.
  • Collaborate with the Verification team to develop test plans, debug RTL, and ensure functional correctness.
  • Work closely with the Physical Design team to meet timing, area, power, and manufacturability requirements.

Benefits

  • Employees at Google are often offered benefits like comprehensive health insurance, 401(k) matching, and flexible work arrangements, among other benefits.
