Staff Signal and Power Integrity Engineer
Our team serves as the center of excellence for Signal and Power Integrity (SIPI) within the Pixel hardware organization. We drive technical innovation and sign-off methodologies for pixel platform design, supporting multiple concurrent product generations (Pixel 27, 28, and beyond). We own the end-to-end SIPI process, from initial architecture and stackup definition to complex PDN modeling and HSIO validation. By leveraging cutting-edge automation and academic research collaborations, we solve critical hardware challenges to ensure the performance and robustness of Google's flagship devices.
As a Staff Signal and Power Integrity Engineer team, you will lead the design and validation of signal and power integrity for our flagship mobile devices. You will define technical sign-off methodologies, drive simulation automation, and collaborate with engineers to push the boundaries of hardware performance and reliability.
