Google welcomes people with disabilities.

Due to the current health crisis related to COVID-19 and the escalating visa/travel restrictions in place, we’re currently unable to extend offers to anyone who cannot work from Taiwan due to lockdown visa/travel restrictions, or other restrictive measures until further notice. Consequently, we will be prioritizing candidates who can start in this location by set date as expected. We’re keeping the situation under review and would adjust our position should the restrictive measures be removed later on.

Minimum qualifications:

• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
• 3 years of relevant industry experience.
• Experience in functional verification, performance validation, developing test plans and diagnostic codes of modern processors.
• Experience with modern processor micro architecture (and related technologies and algorithms), as well as functional verification and emulation tools.

Preferred qualifications:

• 7 years of directly relevant industry experience.
• Experience in building CPU functional verification infrastructures.
• Experience in formal verification tools and be able to write assertions.
• Deep understanding of ARM Instruction Set Architecture.
• Familiarity with ARM Instruction Set Architecture.
• Knowledge of general purpose operating systems such as Linux and Android.

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.

As a CPU Verification Engineer you will own functional verification for part of a CPU design. You’ll develop functional verification infrastructure as well as writing diagnostic codes to ensure functional correctness of a design and will develop test plans for functional units and subsystems.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to work with front-end design, architecture, and performance teams to ensure architectural compliance, functional correctness, as well as meeting IPC performance goals. You’ll analyze coverage from various dimensions and develop monitors and checkers for better quality assurance. When necessary you will utilize formal verification tools and write assertions, and will help port designs to emulation platforms and run functional verification and performance validation using emulation platforms.

Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people’s lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

• Design verification and emulation for future CPU developments.
• Build functional verification infrastructure (unit, multi-unit, core, and subsystem level verification environments).
• Produce diagnostic code repositories that sufficiently enable production quality CPUs.
• Lead functional verification and performance validation for both pre-silicon and post-silicon.
• Port designs onto emulation platforms and perform functional verification and performance validation on the platforms.
