About the job

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.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $189,000-$274,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
