Google's software engineers develop next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information. Our products handle information at massive scale and extend well beyond web search. We seek engineers who bring fresh ideas from areas such as information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design, and mobile. As a software engineer, you will work on a project critical to Google’s needs, with opportunities to switch teams and projects as our business evolves. We value versatility, leadership qualities, and enthusiasm for tackling new problems across the full-stack.
Your tasks
- Utilise Digital Signal Processors (DSP) and Hexagon Tensor Processors (HTP) architectures to accelerate ML models while minimizing thermal impact.
- Conduct rigorous power profiling and implement hardware-specific optimizations to maintain consistent feature performance across all use cases.
- Own the end-to-end performance optimization of models to operate within a strict power budget.
- Define efficiency standards on next-generation hardware at the intersection of ML and system architecture.
What you bring
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
- 2 years of experience with software development in C++ or Python programming languages, or 1 year of experience with an advanced degree.
- 1 year of experience with ML infrastructure (e.g., model deployment, model evaluation, data processing, debugging).
- Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science or related technical fields (preferred).
- Experience developing accessible technologies (preferred).
- Deep understanding of machine learning principles to ensure algorithms perform within strict power limits (preferred).
- Maintaining a current and thorough understanding of the latest developments in Digital Signal Processors (DSP), Hexagon Tensor Processors (HTP), and system-on-chip (SoC) architectures to leverage hardware-specific features for maximum efficiency and thermal management (preferred).
