About the job
Be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's direct-to-consumer products. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide. Your expertise will shape the next generation of hardware experiences, delivering unparalleled performance, efficiency, and integration.In this role, you will design and build the systems that are important for computing infrastructure. You will develop from the lowest levels of circuit design to large system design and see those systems all the way through to high volume manufacturing. You will be the part of Google’s Silicon team, developing hardware and software to enable Google’s innovations in working with Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC). You will drive the complete design constraints development, its validation, working on sign-off timing convergence for designs including deciding the initial timing goals, setting up the timing analysis flows and methodology, and working with the implementation engineers to achieve the timing goals.The Platforms and Devices team encompasses Google's various computing software platforms across environments (desktop, mobile, applications), as well as our first party devices and services that combine the best of Google AI, software, and hardware. Teams across this area research, design, and develop new technologies to make our user's interaction with computing faster and more seamless, building innovative experiences for our users around the world.
Responsibilities
- Design constraints creation from architecture/microarchitecture documents with an understanding of various external Input Output (IO) protocols.
- Design constraints validation across multiple corners/modes using Fishtail/Timevision.
- Run Primetime and validate constraints post synthesis runs. Set up timing constraints, defining the overall static timing analysis (STA) methodology.
- Work with the design team and block owners throughout the project for sign-off timing convergence. Work on constraints promotion and demotion flow using fishtail, timevision.
- Evaluate multiple timing methodologies/tools on different designs and technology nodes. Work on automation scripts within STA or tools for methodology development.
