About the job

As a part of an EMC Test Engineer at Google, you will be responsible for ensuring that complex hardware systems comply with global Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Radio Frequency (RF) standards. You will own the entire hardware development life-cycle, from early engineering verification, formal certification and sustaining.
You will act as a critical technical gatekeeper and diagnostic expert, as it will unblock hardware release schedules by preparing Equipment Under Test (EUT), executing test plans, launching specialized offline workloads, and performing deep root-cause failure analysis to recommend design mitigations (such as layout, grounding, or shielding changes).
In this role, through process automation, meticulous component qualification, and deep cross‑functional collaboration with hardware design, firmware, and external lab teams, the EMC Test Engineer ensures Google’s hardware platforms satisfy both internal engineering specifications and worldwide regulatory mandates efficiently.
