Senior System Power and Performance Architect, Silicon

Join Google's innovative hardware team as a Senior System Power and Performance Architect, where you'll be at the forefront of developing custom silicon solutions for Google's direct-to-consumer products. This role combines hardware expertise with software optimization, focusing on creating efficient and powerful systems for Google Tensor mobile SoCs. You'll work specifically on optimizing Power-Performance-Area (PPA) under battery life and thermal constraints, with special attention to camera and GenAI use cases.

The position requires deep technical knowledge in SoC architecture, performance analysis, and power optimization. You'll be responsible for creating complex workload models, defining key performance indicators, and driving architectural decisions that impact system performance and power consumption. The role involves collaboration with cross-functional teams to achieve power and thermal targets in production.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong technical skills in hardware architecture and system optimization who wants to impact millions of users through Google's hardware products. You'll be part of a team that combines Google's strengths in AI, Software, and Hardware to create revolutionary computing experiences.

The ideal candidate should have extensive experience with SoC architectures, performance analysis, and power optimization, along with strong programming skills in Python or C++. Knowledge of camera and GenAI workloads, post-silicon power productization, and system-level optimization would be particularly valuable.
