Google has one of the largest and most powerful computing infrastructures in the world. Your team is responsible for providing the manufacturing capability to deliver this state-of-the-art physical infrastructure. As a Manufacturing Engineer, you evaluate the product designs and create the processes, tools and procedures behind Google's powerful search technology. When vendors build parts for our infrastructure, you're right there alongside ensuring manufacturing processes are repeatable and controlled. You collaborate with Commodity Managers and Design Engineers to determine Google's infrastructure needs and product specifications. Your work ensures the various pieces of Google's infrastructure fit together perfectly and keep our systems humming along smoothly for a seamless user experience.

Google Cloud is responsible for providing the hardware design and the manufacturing capability to deliver state-of-the-art physical infrastructure that powers Machine Learning applications, among others. Quality and Reliability are the foundational cornerstones for the success of this complex offering.

As a Reliability Engineer, you will lead new product introduction (NPI) reliability related activities between our Engineering teams, Contract Manufacturers (CM), and suppliers for Machine Learning hardware, identifying and managing risks, and clearly communicating project deliverables and status to stakeholders. You will evaluate complex product designs and provide insights to the design teams on potential improvements and tradeoffs. You will create procedures and tools to drive product development and manufacturing in a fast-paced environment while focusing on the root causes of failure. You will also evaluate the reliability status of the fleet and support product improvement initiatives. Finally, you will work with external partners to ensure their products meet our customer expectations.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running.
