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.
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
- Influence product design by providing thermal engineering insight into the technology roadmap, identify and scope innovation opportunities and technology risks, and contribute to overall system architecture.
- Design thermal management hardware, material selection, heat sinks, air movers, pumps, and supporting equipment, and work with internal manufacturing teams and external fabrication vendors during the product development cycle.
- Contribute to overall system architecture and make interdisciplinary tradeoffs to optimize TCO of overall compute infrastructure.
- Develop specifications and test procedures to ensure desired reliability and performance of electronic equipment, collaborate, supervise, and motivate suppliers to design and develop products.
