Our computational challenges are so big and unique we can't just buy our hardware, we've got to make it ourselves. Our Platforms Team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google's services. As a Mechanical Engineer you design and evaluate our data center systems, identifying product requirements and contributing to research and project planning. From the chip to chiller, you are responsible for designing and optimizing an architecture that will scale with Google's continued growth.

With your technical expertise, you lead and manage projects, develop product and process improvements, provide consultation to others and help facilitate training and development.

As Physical Product Design technologist, you will work jointly with the chip-package team and Hardware System team to explore new package, system, or manufacturing process architectures and designs for Machine Learning (ML) systems, leveraging advanced package technologies, PCB technologies, interconnects, cooling, power, that will enable scale up performance of future generations of ML systems. You will be directing and exploring package and system physical co-design scale manufacturing solutions, through early feasibility exploration with test vehicles and hardware prototyping of manufacturing processes, with focus on achieving thermal, mechanical, interconnect and power delivery performance goals that are scalable to high volume manufacturing. Additionally, you will work with multi-functional cross teams from different organizations, and various suppliers to enable the new ML hardware system.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.
