Snapshot

We are looking for engineers who understand that the end of Moore’s Law will require a revolution in chip design methodology (EDA). Our work emphasizes three opportunities for novel approaches to EDA: cloud/hyperscale computing--which allows algorithms to operate totally differently; machine learning--which provides dramatic automation opportunities; and integration--since we can now co-design and/or co-optimize algorithms, compilers, and hardware.

This is a hands-on coding role for engineers who like to roll up their sleeves and get things done. At Google DeepMind you’ll be joining our team of scientists and engineers who are directly impacting the machinery of machine learning.

About Us

Artificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence (AI). We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.

The Role

You should be passionate about making digital electronic design better, including (but not limited to) how to use AI, cloud computing, and/or co-design to dramatically improve EDA:

  • Skilled at rapid yet rigorous prototyping and software tool building for design automation; aptitude to quickly determine whether an approach is worth following or not without spending too much time.
  • Excited to invent, prototype, and deliver products employing novel optimization techniques and machine learning to re-invent AI chip design, from models to GDSii.

Existing team members are self-driven and motivated, bring passion to their work, are comfortable working in a highly ambiguous environment, are open and curious to seek out and learn new perspectives, can challenge their own thinking, and are excellent and direct communicators and collaborators.

About You

In order to set you up for success as a EDA Software Engineer at Google DeepMind, we look for the following requirements:

  • Experience advancing EDA, including using AI, cloud computing, or HW/SW co-design to improve EDA outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to innovate.
  • Ability to scope, plan, and execute projects towards team goals.
  • Desire to revolutionize chip design and the flexibility to thrive in a rapidly evolving organization.

In addition, 1-2 years of experience of the following would be helpful:

  • Experience with collaborative, hyper-scalar software development and engineering best practices.
  • Interest in working with full-stack system development, from HW/SW co-design through implementation (ideally through post-silicon)..
  • Interest in JAX, GPU, or other SIMD programming (eg, for ML/AI or scientific computing).
  • Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related field; or other similar experience.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is between $141,000 - $202,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your targeted location during the hiring process.

Application deadline: June 5, 2025

Top 10 Skills in Machine Learning According to LinkedIn & Indeed Job Postings

Machine learning (ML) is at the forefront of innovation, powering systems in finance, healthcare, retail, logistics, and beyond in the UK. As organisations leverage ML for predictive analytics, automation, and intelligent systems, demand for skilled practitioners continues to grow. So, which skills are most in demand? Drawing on insights from LinkedIn and Indeed, this article outlines the Top 10 machine learning skills UK employers are looking for in 2025. You'll learn how to demonstrate these capabilities through your CV, interviews, and real-world projects.

The Future of Machine Learning Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Machine learning (ML) has become one of the most powerful forces reshaping the modern world. From voice assistants and recommendation engines to fraud detection and medical imaging, it underpins countless applications. ML is no longer confined to research labs—it powers business models, public services, and consumer technologies across the globe. In the UK, demand for machine learning professionals has risen dramatically. Organisations in finance, retail, healthcare, and defence are embedding ML into their operations. Start-ups in Cambridge, London, and Edinburgh are pioneering innovations, while government-backed initiatives aim to position the UK as a global AI leader. Salaries for ML engineers and researchers are among the highest in the tech sector. Yet despite its current importance, machine learning is only at the beginning of its journey. Advances in generative AI, quantum computing, robotics, and ethical governance will reshape the profession. Many of the most vital machine learning jobs of the next two decades don’t exist today. This article explores why new careers will emerge, the roles likely to appear, how today’s roles will evolve, why the UK is well positioned, and how professionals can prepare now.
