Join a pioneering team at Google Cloud, shaping the future of custom silicon solutions for direct-to-consumer products. You will drive innovation in next-generation hardware, delivering exceptional performance, efficiency, and integration for products used by millions globally. This role offers the chance to be at the forefront of hardware development, contributing to groundbreaking advancements.

As the SoC Analog Integration Lead, your expertise will be crucial in defining strategies, selecting, and integrating high-speed analog and mixed-signal IPs. You will manage the entire lifecycle of IP integration, ensuring that stringent requirements for performance, power, thermal, area, signal integrity, and system interfaces are met from initial architecture through to mass production.

Lead the evaluation and selection of third-party analog/mixed-signal IPs, establishing detailed technical SLAs, functional specifications, and delivery schedules. Serve as the primary technical interface to IP vendors, overseeing technical reviews, bug tracking, silicon errata evaluations, and waiver processes. Collaborate with floorplan and physical design teams to define integration requirements, ensuring alignment on placement, power delivery, clocking, and functional interfaces. Partner with packaging, PCB, and SI teams to optimize high-speed trace and power delivery, driving the die-package co-design process. Oversee AMS simulations and netlist checks, while leading post-silicon bring-up, lab characterization (BER, jitter), and validation to support the product ramp.

A Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience, is required.

We seek candidates with at least 10 years of experience in analog and mixed-signal IPs such as PCIe, UCIe, Serdes, HBM, or DDR PHYs, particularly within advanced technology nodes.

Demonstrated experience in negotiating technical specifications and managing technical deliverables with IP vendors is essential for this role.
