Description For Silicon Reliability Engineer

Join Google's Raxium display group as a Silicon Reliability Engineer, where you'll be at the forefront of developing and improving reliability for microLED-based displays. This role combines hands-on technical work with strategic leadership in ensuring product reliability. You'll be responsible for developing hardware, executing reliability tests, performing detailed analysis, and providing crucial reliability predictions.

The position is based in Fremont, CA, at Google's state-of-the-art compound semiconductor fab. Raxium, now part of Google, has developed revolutionary semiconductor materials display technology that enables new functionality in display products, particularly in augmented reality (AR) and light-field display applications. This technology aims to create a more natural connection between digital and physical realms.

As a Silicon Reliability Engineer, you'll work closely with cross-functional teams, including Design-for-Test, PCB design, and test development teams. You'll lead critical initiatives in reliability testing, failure analysis, and product design reviews. The role requires a strong background in semiconductor IC reliability, with opportunities to work on cutting-edge display technology that could revolutionize next-generation display markets.

The position offers a competitive compensation package ranging from $147,000 to $216,000, plus bonus, equity, and comprehensive benefits. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong technical background in electrical engineering or physics, combined with practical experience in semiconductor device reliability. You'll be part of a dynamic team working to push the boundaries of display technology while maintaining the highest standards of reliability and performance.

If you're passionate about semiconductor technology, have a strong background in reliability engineering, and want to be part of shaping the future of display technology, this role offers an exciting opportunity to make a significant impact in a rapidly evolving field.

How would you sum the elements in an array of integers? What is the time complexity?

Data Structures & AlgorithmsMedium

Given an array of integers, write a function to calculate the sum of all the numbers in the array. For example, if the input array is [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], your function should return 15 (which is 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5). Can you write an efficient function to do this, and what is the time complexity of your solution? As a follow-up, consider how you would handle extremely large arrays or arrays containing very large numbers to prevent overflow. Can you provide an example implementation in your preferred language?

Design an API for an e-commerce product catalog, including entities, endpoints, and considerations.

System DesignMedium

API Design Question: E-commerce Product Catalog Let's design a simplified API for an e-commerce product catalog. Imagine you're building the backend for a website like Amazon or Etsy, focusing specifically on how products are stored and retrieved. This API will allow client applications (like web browsers or mobile apps) to browse, search, and view product details. Define the Core Entities: What are the essential attributes of a Product? Consider attributes like product_id, name, description, price, category, image_url, and inventory_count. Are there other attributes you would include? Justify your choices. Design the API Endpoints: Propose the main API endpoints for interacting with the product catalog. Focus on the following functionalities. Provide example requests and responses (in JSON format) for each endpoint: Retrieve a product by ID: (/products/{product_id}) Search for products: (/products?keyword=example&category=example) List products by category: (/categories/{category_name}/products) Considerations: How would you handle pagination for large product lists? How would you implement filtering and sorting options in the search endpoint? (e.g., filter by price range, sort by popularity). How would you handle different image sizes and formats? Example Scenario: A user searches for red shoes on the website. Describe how the API would be used to fulfill this request, including the specific endpoint called, the parameters passed, and the format of the expected response.
