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.

In this role, you will work from prototype to New Product Introduction (NPI) to commercialization of products. You will be the cornerstone of all New Product Introduction activities and will work with technical cross-functional teams in the development of new products.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.

• Lead engagement with cross-functional teams to define the effective and efficient method for launching the Google hardware.
• Lead factory-related operational issues related to Surface mount technology (SMT) assembly processes during pre-production builds through mass production.
• Lead engineering support with respect to failure analysis, yield, reliability improvements and cost reduction, and guide all Printed Circuit Board/Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCB/PCBA) related support to new products under development.
• Perform design analysis using applicable tools and processes and define a strategy for the evaluation of the new technology.
• Develop partnerships with engineering, supply chain and other cross-functional organizations to ensure risk and tests will be assessed.
