About the job
Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.
The ML, Systems, & Cloud AI (MSCA) organization at Google designs, implements, and manages the hardware, software, machine learning, and systems infrastructure for all Google services (Search, YouTube, etc.) and Google Cloud. Our end users are Googlers, Cloud customers and the billions of people who use Google services around the world.
We prioritize security, efficiency, and reliability across everything we do - from developing our latest TPUs to running a global network, while driving towards shaping the future of hyperscale computing. Our global impact spans software and hardware, including Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, the leading AI platform for bringing Gemini models to enterprise customers.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with Google Cloud and Google DeepMind teams to ensure the Gemini models are improved rapidly based on customer feedback.
- Work across teams and organizations to navigate technical ambiguity and bring clarity to the engineering work. This requires active scoping and driving progress with detailed attention to technical details while aligning it with a big picture strategy.
- Balance architectural and design responsibilities with active participation in coding to provide technical leadership and accelerate development cycles, ensuring seamless integration and rapid iteration across teams.
- Develop and implement systems-based solutions to problems, balancing planning with rapid iteration to achieve timely results.
- Drive technical project strategy, lead Machine Learning (ML) infrastructure optimization, and oversee the design and implementation of solutions across multiple specialized ML areas.
