About the job
As a Lead CPU and Performance Architect, you'll be the key contributor to improve processor instruction set architecture, develop innovative microarchitecture features, and deliver Google’s advanced SoC products. You will collaborate with system performance and software teams to plan and conduct application and benchmark performance analysis, and project their performance at various design phases. In this role, you’ll be guiding junior CPU architects and working with engineers in power, thermal, security, physical design, and other subsystem teams to determine the CPU subsystem configuration and features, and support the integration of CPU subsystem into the SoCs.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people's lives better through technology.
