About The Job

Google’s custom-designed machines make up one of the largest and most powerful computing infrastructures in the world. The Hardware Testing Engineering team ensures that this cutting-edge equipment is reliable. In the R&D lab, you design test equipment for prototypes of our machinery and develop the protocols used to scale these tests for the entire global team. Working closely with design engineers, you give input on designs to improve our hardware until you’re sure it meets Google’s standards of quality and reliability.

With your technical expertise, you create test plans for highly complex platforms (e.g., validating the interaction of multiple pieces of equipment at the networking and subsystem levels), and using your deep knowledge of component design characteristics, you diagnose highly complex hardware or software issues.

As a Reliability Engineer, you will be responsible for leading the reliability development within a design team working on a product.

Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Consumer Hardware team researches, designs, and develops new technologies and hardware to make our user’s interaction with computing faster, more powerful, and seamless. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, our Consumer Hardware team is making people’s lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

• Lead and document Failure Mode and Effective Analysis (FMEA). Develop and implement reliability test procedures/specifications and prepare testing procedure documents.
• Work with contract manufacturer (CM) on alignment of reliability specifications, audit of reliability test setup/procedures, execution of reliability tests as planned, and report of test results in a timely manner.
• Drive detailed failure analysis with cross-functional teams to identify the root cause.
• Provide design recommendations to improve product reliability.
• Interact with cross-functional teams to align on product reliability expectations, communicate reliability test results, and implement mitigations of reliability risks. Conduct statistical data analysis for risk assessments for observed failures and make recommendations to management.
