Senior Systems Engineer
Be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's direct-to-consumer products. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide. Your expertise will shape the next generation of hardware experiences, delivering unparalleled performance, efficiency, and integration.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
Responsibilities:
- Lead the development, integration, and tuning of Voice Coil Motor (VCM) systems (e.g., Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), Autofocus (AF, and Aperture) through modeling and systems engineering.
- Define design requirements, balance trade-offs in compact form factor, stabilization precision, and power efficiency.
- Diagnose and resolve failures across the actuator, firmware, and control system (e.g., thermal drift or focus shift).
- Develop end-to-end OIS quality metrics and set specifications related to factory capabilities to end-user quality.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., optics, firmware, signal processing) to maximize combined OIS/Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) performance, ensuring manufacturability and documentation.
