About the job

Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google's needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.

Powering the future of mobile! Our team is on the front lines of mobile innovation, developing the power management software that unlocks the full potential of Google's custom SoC. We work on complex challenges in power, performance, and thermal management, pushing the limits of what's possible in mobile computing. If you're passionate about low-level software development, optimizing complex systems, and working with cutting-edge hardware, this is your chance to make a real difference in the mobile landscape.

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.

Responsibilities

• Develop software and firmware for ARM Architecture focusing on Shared system resource management, Sub system control, Power Management, Clock management, System State management and Thermal control.
• Produce detailed documents for the proposed implementation.
• Over see Pre Silicon and Post silicon software development/validation of the system software or firmware.
• Drive Silicon verification across process, voltage, and temperature. Use case analysis for optimized Power/Perf/Thermal and Latency enablement.
