ABOUT THE JOB:
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.
The Display Applications Developing team serves as the critical bridge between
cutting-edge R&D and commercial reality. Functioning as a strategic "force
multiplier," we operate globally to secure high-stakes design and manufacturing
ramps for Tier-1 consumer electronics leaders. Our mission is to lower the
barrier to entry for our technology, transforming complex next-gen display
silicon into scalable, market-ready solutions. By building robust development
platforms—from advanced hardware drivers to automated internal software tools—we
solve critical integration challenges in display image quality, power, and
thermal management. We go beyond traditional support; we architect the ecosystem
that makes our display innovations easier to integrate, faster to adopt, and
impossible to ignore.
As a Display Applications Developer, you will design the reference hardware and
software ecosystems that drive the adoption of our advanced display silicon. You
will own the complete hardware development lifecycle for display development
platforms—from defining functional requirements and schematic design to board
bring-up and comprehensive signal/power integrity analysis.
Beyond hardware execution, you will act as a force multiplier for the global
developing team, by bridging the gap between silicon R&D and commercial
integration. You will ensure our display technology is not only high-performing
but also scalable and easy to implement for our partners.
Google's Raxium display group has established a revolutionary semiconductor
materials display technology that enables new functionality in display products,
bringing to users a closer and more natural linkage between the digital and
physical realms in applications such as augmented reality (AR) and light-field
display. With start-up roots and a state-of-the-art compound semiconductor fab
in Silicon Valley, Raxium is seeking to build upon its engineering team with an
aim to disrupt next-generation display markets.
The Canada base salary range for this full-time position is CAD 158,000-162,000

RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Own the hardware development lifecycle, from defining functional requirements
and schematic design through to board bring-up and validation, while
performing signal and power integrity analysis to de-risk designs.
- Lead electrical and thermal characterization of display systems to ensure
image quality, investigating complex power delivery issues (e.g., correlating
wirebond defects or OPR artifacts to visual performance).
- Design and build internal developing tools using Python to automate
workflows, focusing on user-centric solutions that increase efficiency for
the wider developing team.
- Utilize light measurement devices alongside standard electronic measurement
tools to correlate electrical performance with optical output.
