About the job

Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Engineering Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. Teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.

With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.

One of the goals for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and is to provide an application-centric view of GCP infrastructure to customers. App Hub aims to optimize productivity of GCP application developers, application operators, and platform operators by streamlining their application development, deployments, and DevOps, while abstracting cloud infrastructure primitives. As part of App Hub, our team is responsible for the entire App Hub surface to present customers a smooth unified experience for app-centric manageability, observability, and governance, which includes the interfaces, performance monitoring for application-centric view, policy and governance management, and a few more evolving areas.
