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.
Our team builds the compiler which enables TPUs, Google's in-house custom designed processor, to accelerate machine learning and other scientific computing workloads for both internal Google customers and external Cloud customers. All users of TPUs use our compiler.
Team members are able to have direct impact on our production customers (Gemini, Ads, Search and YouTube, Cloud 2P/3P customers, to name a few) by improving the compiler along important dimensions such as performance and usability.
Our team is also an important part of designing the next generation of TPU hardware. Our position in the technology stack makes us well positioned to take insights from real workloads and scenarios and provide feedback to the Hardware team.
Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.

Responsibilities
- Write and test product or system development code.
- Participate in, or lead design reviews with peers and stakeholders to decide amongst available technologies. Work closely with users of TPUs to improve performance/efficiency and hardware designers to co-design future processors and investigating high-level representations to effectively program large-scale, distributed, and heterogeneous systems.
- Review code developed by other developers and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., style guidelines, checking code in, accuracy, testability, and efficiency).
- Contribute to a compiler for a novel processor designed to accelerate machine learning workloads. Compile high-performance implementations of operations at a distributed scale.
- Triage product or system issues and debug/track/resolve by analyzing the sources of issues and the impact on hardware, network, or service operations and quality.
