About The Job

As a Product Design Engineer, you’ll help evaluate designs providing critical information on thermal performance, comfort limits, and transient behavior. You’ll utilize system level thermal modeling to produce rough early simulation models and work cross-functionally with colleagues in Product Design, Electrical Engineering, and Silicon to mature those models into accurate detailed simulations.

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

• Understand product context and collaborate to help inform where to focus your efforts.
• Develop Thermal Models with quality inputs working cross-functionally to fill gaps as needed.
• Carry out basic experiments and measurements.
• Report your findings in a way that’s clear and actionable, and help to identify next steps.
• Instrument and test hardware to validate, cross-check, and refine models.
