You will own the end-to-end system architecture, translating user experiences into foundational hardware and software decisions. For new experiences, you will work closely with Science, Silicon and Android platform partners to determine the optimal execution and offload strategy for emerging algorithms. You will contribute to development of performance, battery, and thermal models that will guide critical technical trade-offs to ensure our designs are optimized for real-world use. In close partnership with product management and engineering, you will steer architectural concepts from initial idea through to launch, making a direct impact on millions of users.

    The Google Pixel team focuses on designing and delivering the world’s most helpful mobile experience. The team works on shaping the future of Pixel devices and services through some of the most advanced designs, techniques, products, and experiences in consumer electronics.
