As a hardware validation engineer, you will qualify networking hardware like switches, smart-network interface cards, custom cables, and other specialized hardware for Google's data centers. Google's custom-designed machines make up computing infrastructures in the world. The hardware validation team ensures that this equipment operates properly electrically, functions as intended, meets quality requirements, and exhibits the level of reliability expected by customers. You will work within our lab environments, planning for and executing the required testing. Working with design engineers, you will give inputs on designs to improve our hardware until you're sure it meets Google's standards of quality, reliability, and security.
Our Platforms Infrastructure Engineering team designs and builds the
hardware and software technologies that power all of Google's services. Our computational challenges are complex and unique, enabled by cutting-edge custom hardware designed and made in-house. As a hardware engineer, you will design and build the systems that are the heart of the world's largest and most powerful computing infrastructure. You will see those systems from concept all the way through to high-volume manufacturing. Your work has the potential to shape the machinery that goes into our cutting-edge data centers, affecting millions of Google users.
