RTL Design Engineer, TPU

Qualifications Minimum qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. Experience with scripting languages. Preferred qualifications: Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science, with an emphasis on computer architecture. 8 years of experience in ASIC design. Experience interacting with software, system hardware, and other cross‑functional teams. Experience with chip management, clocking, reset, and peripherals like I2C, SPI, UART, etc. Understanding of digital design fundamentals, including synchronous and asynchronous logic, state machines and bus protocols. Job Summary In this role, you’ll work to shape the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration. You will have an opportunity to drive cutting‑edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) technology that powers Google's most demanding AI/ML applications. You’ll be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's TPU. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide, and leverage your design and verification expertise to verify complex digital designs, with a specific focus on TPU architecture and its integration within AI/ML‑driven systems. In this role, you will join a team working on SoC‑level Register‑Transfer Level (RTL) design for our data center accelerators. You will design RTL Intellectual Property (IP) with the focus on management and control subsystem, also participate in developing infrastructure and methodology that form the foundation of our SoCs (i.e., clocking, reset, error handling, debug, chip management and SOC chassis etc.). You will build a global understanding of how our accelerators are built from concept to production. This is a highly cross‑functional role that will require you to coordinate and co‑design with our software and system hardware counterparts. You will utilize a background in RTL design, and the ability to lead to multi‑faceted efforts involving many stakeholders. Compensation US: $163,000 - $237,000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits. Responsibilities Work separately to create and review management and control subsystem's design microarchitecture specifications. Develop SystemVerilog RTL to implement logic for ASIC products according to established coding and quality guidelines. Work with architecture and power teams to evaluate features and their impact. Work with design validation (DV) teams to create test plans to verify, and debug design RTL. Work with physical design teams to ensure design meets physical requirements and timing closure.
