Hi, I&rsquo;m Eric Liu.
I am a Staff Software Engineer and Tech Lead Manager (TLM) at Google, based in Sunnyvale, CA.
My work focuses on Infrastructure Performance and Customer Engineering, specifically for GPUs and TPUs. I lead teams that bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI hardware and the latest ML models (like Gemini), ensuring optimal performance and reliability at Google Cloud scale. I thrive in the ambiguous space where hardware constraints meet software ambition—whether it&rsquo;s debugging race conditions across thousands of chips or designing API surfaces for next-gen models."><meta name=keywords content="software engineer,performance engineering,Google engineer,tech blog,software development,performance optimization,Eric Liu,engineering blog,mountain biking,Jeep enthusiast,overlanding,camping,outdoor adventures"><meta name=twitter:card content="summary"><meta name=twitter:title content="About"><meta name=twitter:description content="Hi, Im Eric Liu.
