About the job

Google's custom-designed machines make up one of the largest and most powerful computing infrastructures in the world. The Hardware Testing Engineering team ensures that this cutting-edge equipment is reliable. In the R&D lab, you design test equipment for prototypes of our machinery and develop the protocols used to scale these tests for the entire global team. Working closely with design engineers, you give input on designs to improve our hardware until you're sure it meets Google's standards of quality and reliability.

The Embodied Systems team is the new hardware-centric group within Google Deepmind Robotics. Our mission is to accelerate AI research in the physical domain through the world's most advanced robotics systems. You are joining on the ground floor of our hardware operations, meaning your fingerprints will be on the processes, products and relationships that we forge.

As the Senior Master Technician, you are the "First Responder" for our most advanced hardware. You will sit at the intersection of Engineering and Operations—taking raw prototypes and turning them into serviceable, reliable products. You will start by mastering our Humanoid platform, developing the surgical protocols required to keep these complex systems upright, calibrated, and operational. You will "write the book" on how we maintain, diagnose, and repair humanoid robotics.

Artificial intelligence will be one of humanity’s most transformative inventions. At Google DeepMind, we are a pioneering AI lab with exceptional interdisciplinary teams focused on advancing AI development to solve complex global challenges and accelerate high-quality product innovation for billions of users. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, ensuring safety and ethics are always our highest priority.

We are pushing the boundaries across multiple domains. Our global teams offer diverse learning opportunities and varied career pathways for those driven to achieve exceptional results through collective effort.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $144,000-$209,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

Please note that the compensation details listed in US role postings reflect the base salary only, and do not include bonus, equity, or benefits. Learn more about benefits at Google.

Responsibilities

  • Translate complex engineering schematics into standardized service manuals.
  • Act as the Tier 3 support lead during critical failure windows. When the fleet hits a "wall," you are the person who finds the root cause—whether it’s a firmware conflict, a thermal issue, or a mechanical fatigue point.
  • Lead the technical onboarding for Temporary Vendor Contractors (TVCs). Be responsible for certifying that our external partners can execute repairs to our exact standards.
  • Partner with the Research and Development team to provide "boots on the ground" feedback. You will advocate for hardware changes that make the robots easier to service in the field (e.g., better bolt access, modularized limbs).
  • Own the precision-heavy tasks: IMU alignment, joint-torque calibration, and sensor fusion validation for bipedal movement.
