About the role

  • - Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or a specialized field (e.g., Optics, Sensors, Audio/DSP, etc.), or equivalent practical experience.
  • - 2 years of experience working in a hardware testing environment.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and execute full test plans (radiated/conducted emissions, immunity, ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) for NPI hardware in internal and external labs.
  • Lead offline bring-up for EUTs, coordinating with firmware and lab teams to deploy custom workloads for off-network validation.
  • Perform root-cause analysis on compliance failures and provide actionable design recommendations (shielding, layout, grounding).
  • Drive EMC/ESD qualification for sensitive high-speed components (e.g., optical modules) to act as a critical release gate.
  • Serve as a technical Subject Matter Expert (SME) to ensure "compliance-by-design" while expanding lab capabilities and authoring Standard Operating Procedure (SOPs).

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or a specialized field (e.g., Optics, Sensors, Audio/DSP, etc.), or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2 years of experience working in a hardware testing environment.
  • 2 years of experience in hardware compliance, EMC/EMI testing, or hardware validation.
  • Experience with hardware bring-up and troubleshooting, including performing root-cause analysis on compliance failures and recommend practical design mitigations (e.g., shielding, grounding, and PCB layout processing).

Nice to have

  • Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field (Optics, Sensors, Audio/DSP).
  • 4 years of experience conducting standard immunity/emissions compliance tests (ESD, Surge, Radiated/Conducted) and root-cause failure analysis with practical shielding, filtering, and PCB layout mitigations.
  • Experience operating of spectrum analyzers, receivers, generators, and amplifiers, backed by deep familiarity with global regulatory frameworks.
  • Knowledge of global EMC/RF regulatory standards and compliance frameworks (FCC, CE, CISPR, IEC/EN, and KN/KS).
  • hardware and software technologies that power all of Google's services.
  • You will see those systems from concepts 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.

Skills

  • Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

Compensation

  • US: $132000 - $190000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits
