Be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of our company'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.
As a Power Architect, you will not just design chips; you will define the energy efficiency of the infrastructure that powers our company services worldwide.
In this role, you will be at the intersection of architecture, logic design, physical implementation, and system software. You will own the power architecture for next-generation custom SoCs (System on Chips), making critical trade-offs between performance, thermal constraints, and power delivery to build the most efficient computing platforms on the planet.
The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining whats possible. We empower our company customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers, our company Cloud customers, and billions of our company users worldwide.
We're the driving force behind our company's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for our company Cloud, our company Global Networking, Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.
Responsibilities
Define and own the SoC power architecture, including complex power domains, clocking structures, and Power Delivery Network (PDN) solutions to achieve optimal Performance-per-Watt.
Architect sophisticated power management policies, including Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS), power gating, and state strategies. Define the hardware/software interface for the Power Management Unit (PMU) and provide power management specifications.
Lead collaboration across architecture, RTL, physical design, packaging and validation teams to establish power budgets and specifications. Ensure power requirements are met from concept to tape-out.
Develop high-fidelity power and performance models to evaluate architectural features early in the design cycle. Drive pre-silicon power estimation and analysis to guide design decisions.
Lead post-silicon power analysis, correlating lab measurements with pre-silicon models to close the loop and improve future methodologies.
