Physical Design CPU Lead, Google Cloud

The Physical Design CPU Lead at Google Cloud will lead the physical design of the CPU to tape-out, collaborating with multiple team members. Responsibilities encompass evaluating and developing physical design methodologies, defining SoC flows, working with architects and logic designers on feasibility studies, and establishing design targets (timing, power, area). The role includes participation in design reviews, issue resolution, and technical/schedule tradeoff discussions. The successful candidate will create execution plans, manage team efforts from concept to production silicon, and define physical design strategies to meet quality and schedule goals. This role requires deep expertise in advanced design techniques, including clock/voltage domain crossing, DFT, and low-power designs within a high-performance, high-frequency environment.
