About the job
Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.
With your extensive technical expertise you take initiative to independently design and implement new systems, designing, implementing, and testing multiple features with little or no direction from tech lead or manager. You collaborate with key stakeholders to determine future direction of work.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
Responsibilities
- Lead and grow a high-performing software engineering team responsible for optimizing the software stack for Google's Tensor SoC, directly impacting the performance, power efficiency, and user experience of Pixel devices.
- Drive the measurement and analysis of performance and power bottlenecks on the device. Oversee and contribute technically to the optimization of critical computation kernels across processing units (CPU, GPU, TPU, DSP) within the Tensor SoC.
- Partner closely with Pixel software teams to integrate optimizations to enable cutting-edge features.
- Influence the future direction of Google's silicon and software by contributing to the architectural design of next-generation SoCs and platform capabilities.
- Foster a culture of technical excellence, innovation, and collaborative problem-solving within the team.
